I like a book where they're not afraid to show the hero can make mistakes.
That's exactly what happens when Brian Michael Bendis writes Spider-Man. In Learning Curve Spider-Man continues to try and figure out the ins and outs of being a superhero. How to make a little cash on the side, what not to do when facing a criminal organisation and how to talk to Mary-Jane.
One of the things I really like with this rendition of Spider-Man is the relationship between Peter and Mary-Jane. Bendis has a feel for surly teenager and teens in love. I like the way conversations happen in school and how Aunt May deals with a teenage boy in her house.
This is one is as much about the relationships as it is about the super-heroics. I'll give it a 4.
