I know I enjoyed non-Parker Venom, most recently in Guardians of the Galaxy. This time, though, it's not Flash Thompson, it's Eddie Brock, whom I find boring, both when he's written as a villain, and as a hero. Add to that some complex shit going on with this Ghost Rider - or maybe not really? -...
334 - 336: With the super hero registration act looming, the Fantastic Four head to Washington DC with numerous C-list super villains attacking them every step of the way.Walter Simonson's run starts by being shackled by the Acts of Vengeance crossover but he makes the most of it. It's very timely ...
Sidekick extraordinaire Rick Jones is saddled with Genis, the son of the deceased Captain Marvel, via Kree Nega-Bands. Complicating things is the fact that Genis cannot control his cosmic awareness.So this is the first volume of Peter David's run on Captain Marvel. Cap and Rick Jones encounter The...
And I may have to lie to a RL friend of mine who's joking about not talking to me ever again because I was having trouble getting through this... The plotline was, as promised, good, but I couldn't really connect with any of the characters. It all felt a little rote: battles and not the kind of ...
The way this was written was just not good. There's a way to make something kid-friendly without dulling the emotions of the characters. This didn't do that, it just simplified everything to the point where it felt I wasn't reading about the characters I was familiar with from the movie, or from...
The Infinity Gauntlet is one of those comic events that makes an impact when it debuts and then casts a long shadow in the universe in which it is set. The story within the six issue collection is very well written and illustrated as it shows the effects of Thanos' use of the Gauntlet as the univer...
For those readers interested at a potential glimpse of the content of the Avengers (Assembled) sequel this is your choice of graphic novel. Infinity Gauntlet focuses on the proposed villain for this future movie, a villain known for meddling with the power of the Tesseract (or Cosmic Cube), and who ...
I really liked Starlin's other big, cosmic crossovers, but this one just didn't do it for me. There are some golden moments (Doom and Kang working together while both plot betraying the other is brilliant and dead on) but overall it had the effect of trying too hard. And the central idea that drives...
This hovers at 3.5 stars for me, I'm so torn whether or not I liked it enough to give 4 stars... Marvel in space just really irritates me.. Thanos going on and on for hours about how he's all powerful and can't win the approval of others, and every hero I've never heard of banding together to go to ...
Varied a bit more in quality than it should have. The actual Alan Davis stories were pretty good, and served mostly to tie up any leftover loose ends from the previous 50 or so issues of Excalibur, including getting Jamie Braddock sorted. But the issues not actually by Alan Davis are less successful...
