One of the main takeaways from Marvel's 2019 output is that Tom Taylor writes a mean Spider-Man. This is hardly surprising given how well Taylor has succeeded with books like Injustice and All-New Wolverine, but it's nice to have the confirmation anyway. Taylor's Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man provides an engrossing, character-driven alternative to the core Amazing Spider-Man comic. War of the Realms Strikeforce: The Land of Giants, on the other hand, allows Taylor to flex some different muscles as he thrusts Spidey into the thick of a cosmic conflict.
Technically, this one-shot special is an ensemble book, with Captain America leading a team that includes Spidey, Wolverine, Luke Cage and Iron Fist into the icy realm of Jotunheim. But Taylor firmly (and wisely) frames the tale around Peter Parker. The narration is presented as if Spidey is a battle-weary soldier trying to process what he's seen as he writes home to his best girl. For a guy who's used to swinging through the buildings of Manhattan and punching various animal-themed villains in the face, battling Frost Giants and riding winged horses on a completely different plane of reality is a bit of a culture shock.
