The Latest and (Mostly) Greatest #75 by Dan!

Posted on June 2, 2013 by admin

Hi folks! the internet is down at my house, so I’m hanging with my parents while I do this. Yee-haw! Let’s do this! New Avengers #6 Writer: Jonathan Hickman Artist: Steve Epting Aside from Deadpool, which I don’t count cause it’s a comedy, sometimes I feel like New Avengers is the ony Marvel Now book really worth reading. It’s a completely fresh take on traditional Marvel characters, it’s introduced some new players, and it’s got a high concept that’s bound to have a payoff at some point. With this issue, the cover doesn’t lie, as a planet blows up, things … Continue reading →

Phil’s Reviews — Stuff I Bought #250

Posted on May 26, 2013 by Phil

Young Avengers #5 — Writer: Kieron Gillen;  Art: Jamie McKelvie with Mike Norton The comics that take first position in these reviews are generally the ones that make me happy — and that’s why this issue of Young Avengers, which concludes its first arc, is at the top this week: I love McKelvie’s expressive, very clean-lined art; I love Gillen’s group dynamics and clever plotting and sense of humanity and humor, and I especially like the way he uses Loki as the instigator and commentator, and in this issue gives a callback to his wonderful Journey Into Mystery run on … Continue reading →

The Latest and (Mostly) Greatest #74 by Dan!

Posted on May 19, 2013 by admin

All right folks, lots of stuff this week, so let’s do this! Age of Ultron #8 Writer: Brian Bendis Artist: Brandon Peterson I just can’t get into this. I can’t explain why, I’m a huge fan of time travel, I love the high-concept stories, and I want to like the entire idea behind this, but it just feels like Bendis is trying to push a redone version of House of M at us, and I can’t get into it. Add the fact that Peterson seems wickedly rushed making his faces look crazy, and that everything has been building to a … Continue reading →

Phil’s Reviews: Stuff I Bought #249

Posted on May 11, 2013 by Phil

Avengers #11 — Writer: Jonathan Hickman;  Art: Mike Deodato Secret Avengers #4 — Writer: Nick Spencer;  Art: Luke Ross Uncanny Avengers #8 — Writer: Rick Remender;  Art: Daniel Acuna Avengers Assemble #15 AU — Writer: Al Ewing;  Pencils: Butch Guice;  Inks: Tom Palmer with Rick Magyar Lots of Avengers comics this week (plus Avengers Arena, although only the title of that mini-series really connects it to the franchise), and they’re a mixed bag. Hickman’s Avengers is the best; wisely, this is a special-ops, done-in-one story, so it doesn’t add to the title’s increasingly-complex backstory: it’s got Shang-Chi, Spider-Woman, Black Widow, … Continue reading →
