Cats & Kings (Ultimate Spider-man Vol. 8)


All is not well in New York.  The Kingpin has returned, using his resources to exonerate himself for his documented murder.  Peter's fury, but doesn't have much time to muse on the partiality of the justice system . . . for he gets caught in the middle of Elektra hunting the Black Cat after she robbed the Kingpin.  Meanwhile, Mary Jane's life is in tatters and her dad forbids her to see Peter.  What's a Spider-man to do?

I enjoyed this story, touching as it did on this idea of justice and partiality.  I wish it explored the topic more.  The series continues to do a good job capturing a teenage Spider-man, both heroic and temperamental.

Rating: A
