Still not crazy about these huge events. They usually try to shoehorn something in or are too bombastic for me, or... something. I just don't tend to like them. I'll take a tightly written smaller arc in an ongoing title over events like this any day of the week.
But Vision and Rocket, so, yeah, I was gonna see this through somehow.
If Rocket were swearing, or blowing more, ah, people up, this would be a five star rated book. But the problem with writing children's books of adult things is that you have to water down some characters, at least when you're dealign with the likes of Rocket and Deadpool. (Yes, I've seen a Spider-Man and Deadpool comic for kids...)
Overall, the author really nailed everything, he was just help back by this being a children's book. So I highly enjoyed it, but can't say that I felt it was five star due to the warping of the characters due to children.
Children ruin everything. At least they ruin some media tie-in books for me...
And it looks like there'll be less of them. I'm giving up on this series, at least for now, and maybe I'll finish it up eventually if I'm persuaded it gets better.
The new team is not gelling for me, and the storyline is... okay. I'll continue to read in the hopes that they'll bring Rocket back for now, but may choose to drop this out of rotation if it doesn't get better soon.
So to be fair, I've read four and skimmed through five at a store by now. I just don't feel the need to go on: there's not enough Rocket and Vision, aka the reasons I bought this in the first place. I may eventually go back and read it, but right now I don't have the patience for this. Not a bad storyline, but...
