Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)

7 / 10

WHAT I LIKED: The thing that's generally most compelling about the Spider-Man character is that he has to juggle the teenage angst of finding a place in the world with the responsibility of being a superhero. The story in 'Across the Spider-verse,... Read the full review »
