Ultimate Spider-Man: Death of Spider-Man

This is the last volume of the saga of Peter Parker, the first Spider-man in the Ultimate Marvel Universe. In this volume we read the supposedly final adventure of this Spider-man and his death at the hands of the green goblin. Death was never final in American comics, which is a motive for not giving this as much importance to this comic as you might think. The other side of this argument is that typically "death comics" can be used to write story that are in some way out of the ordinary and touching, allowing for writer to rise and shine to the occasion. In this case, and even though I typically enjoy Bendis' writing immensely, the writing is underwhelming. In fact, it is more bland than usual. The drawing, by Bagley, is as competent as always.
