5.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Story, December 12, 1998

By A Customer

What I've liked about Diane Duane's approach to writing Spider-Man in these novels is that she stays so faithful to how Spidey was created by Stan Lee. A Down to Earth hero with problems that everyone can relate with! I liked the cell-phone mystery that Diane wrote in this story,of Venom and Spider-Man teaming up to stop Dr. Octopus from blowing up New York, and how Mary Jane is given a lot of attention in the novel. Helping make the money ends meet while her husband is off saving the city. In a way this marked the end of the first round of Spider-Man novels begun in 1994 and it was a good way to end it.

5.0 out of 5 stars *SNIFF* Do good things HAVE to end?, February 10, 1998

By	"rukhus" (CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Spider-Man: The Octopus Agenda (Spider-Man) (Hardcover)

This was a book I read over and over(just like The Venom Factor). A perfect, funny, and exciting end to the wonderful saga of books starring Venom & Spiderman that Diane created in 1994. But why did it have to end!? Anyway, you HAVE to read this! It's to cool to miss!!
