Review Detail

Spider-Man: Mighty Mayhem! by Mike Maihack is the sixth book (fourth that features Spidey) in the action-packed Mighty Marvel Team-Up graphic novel series. This time around, Spider-Man is back to save the world after the villainous Enchantress casts a spell on Thor, transforming the God of Thunder into a tiny frog. With Enchantress planning to wreak havoc, Spider-Man quickly springs into action to help save Midgard (a.k.a. Earth).

What I Liked: Mike Maihack does double duty, writing and illustrating this book. The illustrations are bright, colorful, and truly bring the story to life. I loved the crossover between Spider-Man’s world and Thor’s life in Asgard. Seeing Spider-Man navigate ancient magic and Asgardian villains added a fun dynamic to the story. The humor sprinkled throughout the book is geared towards kids. For example, Thor as a frog, complete with a mini cape and hammer, was very funny.

Spider-Man: Mighty Mayhem! is the perfect book for readers who love superheroes and graphic novels.
