It's easy to follow and it tells a story, but I got the same bored feeling watching some random generic action film on Netflix. There's just no spark to the story. Seeing the mention of a Direction and a Entertainment Company it does make me wonder if Aberrant is a move or TV pitch that would find itself right a home at a place like the Sci-Fi Network.

Overall this book is aimed at fans first, but I think most people who enjoy crazy fantasy can catch onto the story as well.

This is a great anthology that has a lot of different and interesting stories and art.

This is a book about characters and that is what it does well. Each character is drawn so uniquely and expressively it conveys a lot of each character without having anything said. Also, the interaction between characters is natural and also conveys a lot without the need to overtly explaining anything. The story are the people and watching them interact is how it's told. It's such a subtle thing it kind of snuck up on me but I found I really liked it by the end.

All I can tell is honestly the writing comes across as incoherent and I have no interest in what happens to the lead character of where the plot goes at all. The art is fine and works well with this apocalyptic landscape but it's not enough for me to admire the art and ignore the confusing first issue.

So if you like some semi-risqu humor with some good girl art, you'll love this book.

The story itself is fine. I am not super familiar with Doc Savage except for random issues here and there (and half the time Savage is paired with Batman or other characters), but it's a fun action and adventure romp. The dialogue is a bit flat and doesn't stand out much but you don't need Shakespeare with your action movie.

Over all I enjoyed the book and will keep reading it for the foreseeable future.

That said I like the concept and the world a lot. It got me curious about wanting to learn more about the world. I was a tad put off by how the magical creatures tended to talk more modern and cussed.

In closing I have to say yet again while the content of the book is fine, it doesnt serve its purpose as a first issue. If I was a new reader I would feel lost and confused. Now mind you some readers may become curious and wantto find out more about this shared Hasbro Universe, and thenpick up more comics. Sadly, it didnt have that effect on me.

Now the writer they got, Mark Evanier, makes perfect sense. The man has written a lot of funny comics and cartoon shows (he was involved with the show Garfield and Friends) I just wasn't in the mood for funny involving a cat that Reddit made famous. Maybe I am becoming a curmudgeon as I get older.

Overall I enjoyed the main course of this book but the side dishes were rather lacking

Overall my issue is that both the KISS and the Ash/Evil Dead/Army of Darkness comics I have come across are all bland and simple, so for me there is a bit of fatigue that it's after all these different versions there hasn't been one that has really tapped into the source material and made something fun and exciting.

Its not a bad comic, its just not very exciting for me personally.

The writing is pretty good as well. The story is a Viking Fantasy story so there is plenty of magic and monsters to go with the fighting and the political intrigue.

It's an interesting twist on the robot uprising because they don't want control or slaughter (even though there is a murder), they just want freedom. So in a way it's a story about slavery and dealing with the emergence of a new race of people.

So while I can easily follow along with this book, it's a bit of a jumble and is just enough for me to not be interested in this mini-series (which they don't state anywhere in the book).

On the art, Ted Naifeh's unique style works well for this story as well. He doesn't do hyper realistic art but yet there is still a lot of detail and emotion in is work. Also the story is mainly set at night, when people plot and perform their dark deeds, which means there is a colorful dark palette always at play. That was a common trend in his Courtney Crumrin work as well. So while there is a lot of color, it still is a very dark looking story.

This is a self-contained story that has great twists about man vs machine and the monsters inside of men.

Honestly unless you're a fan of the previous comic or the characters, I don't see this issue making you a big fan. That said for a dime (a play off of the old pricing for the characters' comics back in the 1940s) it doesn't hurt to give it a try if you like a superhero story.

So the cliffhanger that apparently was supposed to go through 2 issues is ruined by the simple need of having to promote comics in a timely manner so comic shops can be informed and order accordingly. The whole nature of how with non-returnable comics, publishers are actually selling to shops and not readers, it an another conversation entirely. In this case though sadly it lessened the impact of the tale.

Still a great read overall and if I didn't get review copies I'd go out and buy it.

So overall I really enjoyed this issue (and not because people are naked mostly throughout the book) and if youve been reading this mini series, this one doesnt disappoint.

So overall if you've been following the series, I say have faith because I have faith it will complete as a good read. If this is your first entry into the series, I'd say give issue 1 a chance to see if you'd want to complete the rest (but this issue does have a lot of spoilers to earlier issues).

If you like a decent crime drama or action story, youll enjoy this. Just might want to start with the first issue instead of this one.

Half of the issue is dedicated to the resolution to the lead's romantic entanglement. This too has some great drama and messiness as no one gets a real happy ending.

I think this maybe another example this story would have been better served collected. I have this feeling if I had more plot to digest and I could see more of where the writer was going I could maybe appreciate the story more. As it is, the story just stops at a place that Im not satisfied with.

What keeps me from just hating this book is the art. The art is beautiful. Its simple and slick with an under layer of fine detail. Also, since the lead of the book focus on female, the artist draws ladies very well without using the crutch of oversexualizing them. His action has a smooth fluidity to it that draws the eye very easily. The art is what makes the book.

So overall I'd recommend to keep an eye out for these new books except for Dr Spektor. That type of story has been done better.

Overall I actually preferred the backup Ninja Fukuroh story than I did the Spy Seal. I think that was mainly the dialogue.

The basic gist of this comic is it's a smaller anthology of various Star Trek stories from the various series and incarnations. It's an interesting and fun concept. Of course with any anthology you're going to get a mixed bag of entertainment value over all.

The art is well suited for the more down to earth story that is going on and helps set the more somber mood consider one of the characters are dying and wants to get the prize he so desperately wanted in his youth. There are also some minor RPG type moment in the story that add to the over all feel.

I like to think I have a better than average familiarity with both Planet of the Apes and the original Tarzan novels, so this promises to be an interesting read. Once I was able to place where these two timelines diverged from the originals, it became much easier to sit back and enjoy it. The art and colouring feels a bit like Tim Burton's 2001 Apes attempt, but still manages to invoke the original series aesthetic. The panel layout is artistic without being distracting, and the writing is tight. As with many crossovers there are a few jarring moments as they weave two very well known franchises together, but the end result is a great beginning.

With the combined timelines of Tarzan and The Planet of the Apes having been established, albeit someone jarringly, in the first issue this issue read much smoother. The art and layout remain excellent, and I am noticing a subtle thematic change to the panels when we flashback to the Apes film history. The writing continues to strike a wonderful balance between the tone of the two franchises, not pushing too far in either direction. My only complaint is there was no real transition between the scenes in London and subsequently the battle West Africa, and when the landing party arriving in Africa. Sailing to Africa is not a short journey, although maybe I'm just being picky.

I'm loving this story, but I think the multiple reality angle was unnecessary. I just spent two issues accepting that this timeline simply exists. There really wasn't any need to shove other realities in my face, its a tired, overused, gimmick that didn't need to happen here. I'm a bit worried about where the story is going, but we'll see how the next couple issues wrap things up.

Basically I would have loved the first story had the art of the second story. Overall though I like the concept of the anthology and would definitely check it out again.

Maybe Dresden Fans would find it more enjoyable but as a standalone comic it fails to help bring in new readers into the story. The art and writing is fine but they made a book that seems to cater to only a certain reader.

Its fine book but it doesn't light my fire for action or adventure.

Over all its a fun story that would fit well in that era. Green Hornet plays up his cover of being a villain and there is plenty of twists and turns and action to keep the pulpy fun going.

Despite all that it's still a darkly funny concept and the cartoony art fits well with the grim humor of the book (it is a story about the apocalypse happening at a comic convention).

These stories are always fun and I look forward to seeing more about the adventures of Miss Tilney and Lord Harwood. I had to re-read a few parts twice with a " "Did I just see" Yes, I did" double take.

Ultimately while it's 25 cents and little risk to try it out, it's totally designed to make you want to try out the first full issue. But as I stated above, I'm leery of trying another Vampirella book less she's rebooted again 6 months later

I will say while this is an interesting and different take on Vampirella I don't know if it would fit all fans of the character.

I would say that for those new to Warhammer 40,000 would enjoy this book as well and maybe it would intrigue them enough to try out more stories set in this universe.

But overall its a good fun read and people who like either Wonder Woman or the Bionic Women would definitely get a kick out of it.
