IGN: "Perhaps all along what this series needed was a little Christos Gage to smooth out the unsightly wrinkles. Dan Slott had been delivering Spider-Man stories of middling quality for months, but with Gage helping out on Danger Zone, this series continues to get better. A few longstanding problems still weigh the issue down -- inner monologue diarrhea, unfunny jokes -- but the pacing has improved enough to make Peter Parker’s escape from the Kingpin, two Hobgoblins, and a billion ninjas an enjoyable affair." 72 -- Click here for full review!

Read Comic Books: "Dan Slott and Christos Gage are setting up something big in this issue, but the story falls flat. The dialogue is done well, but the plot is a mess. The art isn’t as good this time around either, but I believe that Camuncoli can turn it around. Despite all of the flaws, the set up to the final arc make this issue worth the price." 60 -- Click here for full review!

Unleash the Fanboy: "By the end of Amazing Spider-Man #696 I was slightly underwhelmed by the cliffhanger, but there were enough good moments in this issue to let it squeak by with a very light recommendation." 60 -- Click here for full review!

Spider-Man Crawlspace: "This issue came and went. Nothing much was memorable besides all of the above. It wasn’t bad but not great either. Here’s hoping next issue gives us something to sink our teeth into." 50 -- Click here for full review!
