Spider-Man 2 Novelization review

Well, I'd had this sitting around the apartment for weeks, and had only gotten through one chapter. But today I found myself with time to spare (due to having to take my car in for some seat repairs), and someone asked where my review of this was earlier today, so I decided to sit down and read it all this afternoon.

CAPSULE

Spider-Man 2: Ballantine/Del Rey - Peter David has a great ear for dialogue, and I'm certain that many of my favorite bits were pure PAD, embellishments on the movie script. Of course, it does give away movie plot points, so you may want to wait until after seeing the movie to read the book, but you should definitely read the book! Strongly recommended. $6.99/$10.99Cn (311 pages)

( Spoilers behind cut. )

By the way, the Doctor Octopus action figure LOOKS great, excellent likeness of Molina and they didn't shy away from making him just that tad pudgy. But the tentacles are all on a lever gimmick and can't be posed independently, which bites.

Oh, and in case you're wondering why so many of my review posts have "Current mood: hungry", it's because I generally don't eat dinner until I'm done reviewing....
