This comic collection, reissued and amended, tells us about Wesley, leading a humdrum and unhappy existence, until he is taken into hand by the Fraternity and trained to be a killer supervillain. Adapted and changed completely into a film with Angelina Jolie and James McAvoy, the series is nicely pl...

Wow! Visually and in plot, this one packs a punch right off the bat. It's slightly similar to the start of the movie - which was what made me want to read this - but with a twist. Mark Hamill!!!!I really enjoyed how different this was to the movie and I'm eager to read more.

Having already seen the film, I knew what to expect from this comic collection. From a creative team like Millar and Gibbons, this series tells us about a young man recruited into the British Secret Service, what he has to go through to make the grade and various steps in his development. There’s un...

You can't really go wrong with the combination of Mark Millar and Greg Capullo and this comic collection reflects their ability. It's about Bonnie, dying of old age and transported to a mythical land where those who were "good" in life are at war with those who were "bad". (Sounds like Trump languag...

Very dark comics. Logan already living as a farmer who has a family, keeping his head down, and not care of fighting anymore. He need to get money, which he did. But they killed his family anyway. Wolverine core value, for being an old cynical man, is that he don't want to care for anyone bec...

I have so many questions as I finished Volume 1. First off, the art was fantastic. The turmoil of Logan was palpable through the pages. And this comic was gritty and graphic in a lot of places. I maybe got a stomach ache a few times based on what I was reading. All in all though, great job by Jeff L...

Millar takes a Super Friends style superhero team and places them in a surprisingly realistic America of the Fifties and early Sixties. A closeted gay hero is blackmailed by the FBI with the threat of his secret life being exposed. Another hero has an affair with a woman half his age and ends up mak...

I'm glad I read this as a collection and not as single issues. I wasn't sure I was going to like this at all when I started it, and had I only had the first issue or two, I'm not sure I'd have kept going. It took a little time for the story to really get going, and once it did, I found it pretty enj...

It was. It was pointless, and kinda gross, and it definitely got creepy. Between the Quicksilver/Scarlet Witch twincest, and the form of punishment that Magneto doles out to his children in the Ultimate comics, I was properly creeped out because Wanda's punishment is to watch Magneto beat Pie...
