About the Author

Dan Slott has built a loyal fan base by combining old-school fun with stories and characterizations friendly to new readers. Following a run on She-Hulk - which combined his sly humor and encyclopedic Marvel knowledge with an imaginative take on a comic-book law firm - Slott moved into the upper echelon of Marvel writers, launching Avengers: The Initiative and taking the reins on Mighty Avengers from Brian Michael Bendis. When Marvel gave Spider-Man a fresh start in 2008, Slott was one of several rotating writers on a thrice-monthly Amazing Spider-Man. Through three years and a hundred issues, Slott became the writer most closely identified with the web-slinger's "Brand New Day" era. Amazing hit the "Big Time" when Slott took over as full-time writer, chronicling a new chapter in the life of Peter Parker with artists such as Humberto Ramos, Stefano Caselli and Marcos Martin.

Mexican artist Humberto Ramos made his American comics debut in 1994 with DC's Impulse, featuring the Flash's brash grandson. In 1998, Ramos launched the creator-owned Crimson under Wildstorm's Cliffhanger imprint, illustrating the title for more than two years. He then moved to Marvel, becoming one of the most recognizable and innovative talents in comics. Seamlessly blending both Eastern and Western styles, the artist's artist has worked on many of Marvel's most iconic characters - including Spider-Man, Wolverine and the X-Men - in addition to a run on the fan-favorite Runaways.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even Better than Volume 1
Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2014

Man oh man, Superior Spider-Man is awesome! I don't read a lot of comics these days but Slott's Superior Spider-Man has reminded me why I used to love them so much. This series is so darn fun! Otto Octavius truly IS a Superior Spider-Man. Move aside Peter Parker, your ultimate nemesis is truly a worthy successor. Sure, Otto might be a little (or a lot) heavy handed and slightly fascist in his pursuit of justice but he's also a lot more effective. It's a delight to watch Otto as Peter Parker/Spider-Man, learning how to combat crime, juggle a personal life, establish a legacy, and develop a new set of morals. Of the three volumes I've read so far "A Troubled Mind" is the best, mainly due to Otto's Inception-like confrontation with Peter's ghost.

If you're not afraid of change and you're looking for a revolutionary comic, check out Superior Spider-Man!

5.0 out of 5 stars So far, so great...
Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2013

The art is magnificent and the story is even better. Dan Slott has been building this great story that's rivaling all other Spider-Man writers to date, and closing in on the classic Stan Lee start of ASM. The pair of Humberto Ramos and Ryan Stegman are magicians with the visuals. Their style's are very differnt from one another, but work so well that Spider-Man hasn't had art this good in years. Now, this isn't your granddad's Amazing Spider-Man, this is today's Superior Spider-Man. Things are certainly different from Stan Lee's day, so if you only started reading here with this trade, prepare for a status quo shocker. Catch up on  Spider-Man: Dying Wish , Superior Spider-Man Team-Up: Superiority Complex (Spider-Man (Graphic Novels))  and  Superior Spider-Man, Vol. 1: My Own Worst Enemy (Spider-Man (Graphic Novels))  to find out how we got to where we are.
Enjoy the ride, thank me later.

*May Contain Spoilers for Vol. 1*

So A Troubled Mind is a solid follow up to the first 5 issues, with Doc-Spidey setting the record straight on just who Spiderman is now. He’s now a superhero with the capability to think as a super villian, which makes more efficient and more resourceful than before…and thanks to Doc’s obsession with being better than Peter he’s also working on finishing up Peter’s Doctorate. In some ways he is a better superhero, he finishes what he starts and he weighs what is actually important over what Peter might have prioritized. However, because he’s willing to go to lengths (such as nearly beating someone to death) he’s also damaging Peter’s good guy reputation.

I loved seeing the Avengers rip into him, but I’m also disappointed they didn’t try harder. Doc-Spidery and Peter are also fighting for control and I loved seeing that whole situation play out, and thanks to the overall spoilers of the Marvel Universe I know I have more coming up in the future comics. However despite knowing the end-game I’m really excited to see how it’ll all play out and just far Doc-Spidey will go to prove that he is in fact Superior.

* Spoilers Over *

This is definitely a solid issue with only a few moments of text dumping and slow pacing. I can’t wait to continue this one!

Another great entry with plenty of twists and excellent. This series is more adult in theme then certain runs but is all the more enjoyable because of it. Pacing is really well done and there were few times that I was bored with the book. I can't even think of an example where I was bored to be honest. For sure grab this volume if you want a unique story.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun series to read from start to finish
Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2014

I read Vol. 1 and it has me hooked into this series and I like that Marvel went and shook things up with Parker as Spider-Man and let one of his long time enemies not only don the mask but his body which is still crazy to me in a Jekyll & Hyde way. I think that it's crazy that the people involved in Peter's life doesn't see changes in his personality & attitude in the series except one or two people. What's even crazier is that with Doc Ock as Spider-Man he doesn't realize for every 4-5 steps he takes in the right direction as Spidey/Parker he takes another 6-7 steps in the wrong direction.

I thought vol. 1 of this series was great and then I picked up vol. 2 and loved it even more. Otto's character development is amazing to read as he goes through different trials. Stegman's penciling was great as always.

Unfassbar gut. Ich fand schon Vol. 1 gut, aber hiermit wurde mir endgültig bewiesen, das Dan Slott mit Superior Spider-Man einen volltreffer gelandet hat. Für einige Issues kam auch Stegman wieder an den Bleistift und ich finde seine Werke grandios.
Bei Ramos Zeichnungen hadert es bei mir, wie bei vielen anderen aus, aber für mich immer noch besser als Camuncoli.

5.0 out of 5 stars Will the torture ever stop?

Ce TPB fait suite à ' The Superior Spider-Man 1: My Own Worst Enemy ' et, pour le cas où quelques-un(e)s encore l'ignoreraient : Dr. Octopus est mort. Sauf qu'il ne l'est pas. Il est vivant mais dans la mémoire et le corps de Spider-man donc - ipso facto, e pluribus unum et tout le toutime -, de Peter Parker.

Et, depuis, on nage en plein "sale mélange" ! Pour le fan de Spidey, chaque épisode, chaque page, CHAQUE CASE est une T.O.R.T.U.R.E ! Que va faire Otto Gunther Octavius qui va définitivement démolir notre personnage favori ?

Ce nouveau TP, qui contient les #6-10 de SSM (Superior Spider-Man), et qui voit le retour aux pinceaux d'Humberto RAMOS pour les 3/5è du recueil (c'est le "brave" Ryan STEGMAN qui est de permanence pour le reste), est un parcours du combattant, un véritable "Iron-Man" pour le fan de l'Homme-Araignée ! En effet, comme Octavius a gardé la mémoire de Parker, il se trouve qu'une partie de la conscience (si vous êtes croyant, de l'âme) de Parker est restée vivace. Et cette partie reprend du poil de la bête.

De plus, les Vengeurs se sont aperçus que quelque chose ne tourne pas rond chez le Tisseur. Ils le convoquent, et après quelques explications, le soumettent à un examen en règle. Problème : il n'y a pas de "lecteur-dans-les-pensées" dans les rangs des Vengeurs. C'est plutôt une spécialité des X-Men, canal "Cyclope" ou canal "Logan". Pour couronner le tout, ni Tony ni Bruce n'étaient là le jour de l'exam'...

Tout cela conduit à un "showdown" au milieu de la rue comme les Américains en ont la recette, avec d'un côté le Spidey que l'on aime, et de l'autre celui qui est... "supérieur". A votre avis, comment cela finit-il ?

Et je ne parle même pas de tout le remarquable passage de ce livre avec "Cardiac". Ni de celui avec <spoiler>.

Dan SLOTT a sauvé à lui tout seul le naufrage qu'était devenu le projet "OMD" (One More Day). Avant cela, il a notamment créé un "run" époustouflant avec le personnage de Miss Hulk (un "Omnibus" arrive en VO, après le " Miss Hulk, Tome 1 : A armes inégales " de chez Panini France). Ici, il garde d'actualité le beau nom de "Maison des Idées" que Stan LEE aimait à donner à la firme Marvel Comics.

Mais, bon sang, qu'est-ce que l'on souffre s'il on est fan de Spider-Man !
