Grimlock ♥ Ultra Magnus
Grimlock ♥ Ultra Magnus rated it 7 years ago
I mean, Absolute Vision? And I'd heard not to expect everything to be Vision. But there were completely unrelated stories that meant Vision didn't show up until about a hundred pages in, then went away, then was all but gone for a while. (He was on page, but not functioning.) I understand wh...

My main problem with this is how bloated it is: words, words, words everywhere! Which I have no problem with as a writer when all those words are necessary; they are not here. The message feels heavy handed, partly because there's so much here, and it's all so directly, so obviously, said. Th...

Yeah, I got this four hundred page monster from the library for Rocket. I kinda thought Hulk helping him find Gideon's Bible would take longer than one issue. I read four hundred pages for twenty five -_- I don't care about the Hulk's trials, not enough to invest time in a series. I didn't re...

Another solid collection. The art and even the layout is sometimes really hit or miss, but I found the stories in general to be fun, weaving short story arcs with a longer overarching story and pulling pieces of his life in where needed.This book also got pretty violent. There's a number of deaths i...
