This comic has some great elements, both in the writing and the art. Therefore, it deserves a 4/5. This could have been a little better, but not my too much. I definitely recommend that you buy this if you're a Superman fan or a completist. |

The issue gets a 5/5 for perfectly laying out just why this event means as much as House of M or the Phoenix Saga, in terms of how it will affect the heroes and everyday folks in the Marvel Universe. The best part may be that we were thrown in halfway through, rather than getting a slow prologue. From here we can imagine how it happened and just what the catalyst may have been, which adds for a more lively discussion between fans. I seriously recommend this issue to any Marvel fans. |

.I give this issue a 5/5 partly because it doesn't start with the Back to the Future moment. It presents a story, rather than giving us an instant shock and relying on sensationalism. It gives us a reason to read the entire issue, which I implore you to do. |

Because of the writing and the art working so well together and even on their own, this book gets another 5/5. More than just seeing the pages come to life, you can almost get a sense of how the character's are trying to cope with the future versions of themselves and the school. It's really quite fascinating. |

This is perfection and the best possible way, with these circumstances, to send off The Amazing Spider-Man. The issue, unsurprisingly gets a 5/5. Whether you like Dan Slott or not, this is a fabulous issue in every sense of the word. Read this issue, if you want to see what happens to Spidey and carry on to Superior Spider-Man later this month. All I can say is that it needs to be read and to read Avenging Spider-Man 15.1 AFTER this one. |

There's nothing in it that i feel could have been done better. The art works for the script, and the two components complement each other brilliantly. There's really not much else like it in comics these days " at least nothing that my local shop puts on the shelves. In all, it's a beautiful work of comic book art and storytelling. I urge you to pick up the book. It's something you'll want to sink your teeth into. |

The issue earns a 5 out of 5 for giving us a scary setup and a nail-biting cliffhanger that I didn't see coming. The best parts are the bits that take you by surprise, scaring you as much fromthe words on the page asthe images that accompany them. It's a perfect combination between pencils, colors, and dialogue. That being said, you probably need to read this if only to find just how to steel yourself for the Gray Trader. |

There is nothing that I, personally, would change. Making suggestions would be akin to telling Michelangelo to go back and fix a section of the Sistine Chapel.

If you can't tell by now, this book is a 5/5. It would be a 7/5 if the numbering system allowed it. Though a few bits were enough to take me aback, this really is one of the best issues of a Batman book in years. The art and writing are all incredible. They don't miss a beat, as far as epic conclusions go. The last few pages are both depressing and heart-warming at the same time. It's a very thought-provoking book, especially for the characters. Issue 17 of Batman is perfection manifested. |

I love the way they seem to be going here and making Batman a more emotional hero. Following the death of his son, it's to be expected. There really are two stories going on side-by-side here. Whether you're a fan of Harper Row or not, it's still a great issue, but would have been better with a more uniform look. |

As much as it seems like I'm just paying lip-service to a creative team, this issue really was great from start to finish. There were no loose ends and a few questions from the last issue were tied up in pretty bows. The character development, art and homages to classic Batman canon and past story lines do nothing but help make the issue better. |

Every bit of the issue captures Jim Gordon, Batman, the citizens, and the city itself in the best way they could ever be.

No other creative team could have more perfectly captured the gravity of the situation in the stroke of keyboard or pencil. |

It made me believe, even just for a second or two, that a hero like this could have existed on some parallel world or even 32 years ago. The description of the feelings felt when atomic energy causes pain then brings about nigh-invulnerable skin and the details of what Miracleman saw that day show the level of talent the creators have. It also shows that something like a comic can bring us into that kind of world. |

Tom DeFalco still hasn't written a decent end to the story. It seems that all he was doing was buying time for Kyle Higgins to start the Nightwing portion of Death of the Family next month. Like Red Hood and the Outlaws this month, Nightwinghad good moments of dialogue and action scenes. Unfortunately, it just felt like the pacing dropped off at the very end before it ever reached a fulfilling conclusion. I'd love to have seen some of Bruce's detective skills rub off on Dick, but in this issue that wasn't the case. |

The story-telling and, specifically, the character interaction worked beautifully. The emotional toll was evident and we have Kyle Higgins' genius to thank for that. The art was good, but not great. It's one to remember a few years down the line, but not unforgettable. It's a nice transition from Death in the Family, though and anybody that loves Dick Grayson should read the issue. |

I can't decide if the best part is the writing, the art, or a combination of both. Personally, I'm hoping the next issue has a few more bullets and a lot of retribution against a certain walking battery. Either way, I have a feeling it's just going to manage to be better than this, somehow. |

The issue gets a 4/5, particularly for the pacing, which is pretty fast in certain parts. Overall, it's still a nice start to the series, though I'm sure I'm not the only one hoping for Peter to return to his own skin. |

This gets a 5/5, all things considered. Yes, I actually considered everything from Slott's script, to the art, coloring and even the rather shocking ending. (There's a joke in there somewhere, I just know it.) For several reasons, this will be a tough one to forget once your squishy noodle brain absorbs it all. I recommend this issue more strongly than any I have this year. |

The issue has earned a 4/5 for remaining on the same par as the last few. Though there's a new arc right here, with new artists, the fate of Spider-Man (no matter who's in the driver's seat) is still at whim of Dan Slott. I feel like this will show us exactly what kind of Spider-Man Doc Ock is going to be. |

This gets a 5/5 just because it will be remembered for a while. As I mentioned before, there's a point in here that turns everything on its ear and will make everyone question exactly how far this new Spider-Man will go in the direction of a hero or simply just another vigilante. |

Superman (2011) #13
Nov 16, 2012 |
The end result is one of the best issue of Superman since the reboot. I give it 4/5, based on the writing and the art working so well together. As with all of Rocafort's work, it's consistent and portrays exactly what the writer seems to want it to. I can say there'll be a big change to the Superman status quo in this issue, but I can't reveal more than that without a pretty massive spoiler. With that being said, go pick this one up or read it online. |

Superman: Earth One #2
Nov 16, 2012 |
The graphic novel gets a 5/5, partly because it gives us samples of what would be both Clark and Lois' writing styles. That was always what helped make some of my favorite Superman stories. Really the fact that everything comes about as being sort of tied together or at least contrasted with an other piece of the story is fantastic. This, above almost anything else in DC, I urge you to go buy. If you don't have Volume 1, get that first and then buy this. |

When all is said and done, this issue gets a 4/5. That's not because it isn't great, but I just get the feeling it's not as good as it necessarily could be. It's a wonderful lead and we get a bit of history with the place, which helps it, but we're a bit off from getting the whole of this five-part story. If you enjoy horror or the supernatural in any shape or form, then this is probably the comic series for you. |

This earns a 5 for being better than I really thought it would be, though there is a weird cliff-hanger at the end of the issue. |

Uncanny Avengers #2
Dec 8, 2012 |
With all of the writing and artwork mentioned, this gets a 4/5. What hurt it the most was the pacing that I mentioned earlier. It just doesn't feel like there's a team here yet, which is really needed on a team book. That goes double for an Avengers team. Still, it's a good issue for the most part and there are some fantastic moments, both for the characters and visually. |

As series beginnings go, this one was good. It wasn't spectacular, but it was certainly better than I expected. It gets a 4 out of the possible 5 stars because it shows promise and no shortage of breaking from what's expected. The only thing I really wanted that wasn't given is a bit more knowledge of background characters. There's still time for that and enough intrigue to bring me back for the next issue in hopes of more good writing and great art. |

The fun that Paul Cornell has had with the writing shines through. The artwork feels just as joyously created. This helps keep my interest in an already exhilarating book. I'm definitely looking forward rot the next issue, as you should be. Who knows, vampire Jubilee might start walking in daylight next issue with the newly killable Wolverine. Would you really want to miss that? |

There doesn't seem to be anything really missing from the issue. Even the very end is amazing. Oh, and did I mention that there's a classic X-Men member joining the teaching staff? That's kind of important. For that surprise and the great writing and artwork, you should really pick this up. |
