Not a perfect X-MEN story, but its a good tie-in to the alternate reality mini-series Age of X-Man.

Overall, rating this book is purely difficult, because it depends on the readers expectations and interpretation of storytelling and character build-up. If you are a fan of a given character(s) and can keep an open mind, I recommend this book. Otherwise, it may not be for you.

AGE OF X-MAN: X-TREMISTS #3 is not the best comic book, but it gives the readers something to feel instead of just a cliff-hanger to sell comic the next issue.

Byrne and Yanchus along with Jo Rosen on lettering provides solid character development and fast-paced storytelling with an interesting villain and a healthy slice of humor. You cant go wrong with Alpha Flight #1.

Comic book fans-- Byrne fans in particular--will enjoy Alpha Flight #2.

Best quote of Alpha Flight #4: Aurora! Do not call me zat name! Take your filthy paws off! I mus' get away! Away from Aurora! -- Jeanne-Marie Beaubier

Alpha Flight: True North #1 is a good introduction for new readers and something new for long-time Alpha Flight fans!

The character development and story as a whole seems to be moving a little slow, but I feel that is part of the mystery. As Coates noted on the last page; Hang tight, its all part of the journey! I am anticipating the next issue to answer more questions while extending to the five galaxies of the Empire.

The storyline design, construction of action sequences, and emotional artwork by this creative team seem effortless as they effectively establish a fascinating Black Panther story.

Build up for TChalla Vs NJadaka Gods, intergalactic mortals and symbiotes are about to shake several galaxies. This is an excellent extension to Marvels Black Panther vault.

This may be the weakest issue of the arc thus far, but definitely worthwhile to stay on board. Dont jump this intergalactic starship yet!

Black Panther #8 is the best issue since #1and I cannot wait to see where the story leads the readers!

Black Panther #9 provides a surprising twist of elements to this intergalactic story arc.

Theres a lot going on in Black Panther #11, but its all easy to follow and much of it fills you with hope and uncertainty.

Black Panther #12 gives just enough answers and leaves some unanswered questions to keep the reader interested for the next chapter.

War rages in the cosmos and Black Panther will have some difficult decisions to make. I am excited to learn more about why TChilla left home and how he ended up Two Thousand Seasons in the future.

Coates and Acuna powers up the readers synapse that sparks the imagination of science fiction to the next level of one of best Marvel Icons!

Good timing and pacing for closure to one arc and the connector for whats about to be told.

Cultivating, thrilling, and absolutely gorgeous!

Black Panther #17 had some interesting segments that could have been built better instead of focusing on a three-way drama.

I am enjoying this storyline as Border Town #2 continues the perspective from raw teenage emotions and how they deal with real issues. The artwork communicates well as the darkness of the underworld Aztec mythology crosses the border. Pick up your copy today!

Border Town #3 has everything the soul desires. I cannot wait to see more of the supernatural aspect in the next issue!

A solid start to a dark and magical story with a sense of hope and will. Im ready for the next issue to learn Cantos discoveries as his journey continues.

With inspiration by the Wizard of Oz, Canto #2 has heart that radiates in a non-real story, but infused with realism as his journey continues.

Canto #3 is a great character building issue as Canto listens, learns and trains with an enemy of his people.

Canto #4 is courageous woven with realism and fantasy. A fun and delightful story of lessons learned through socializing with others who are different and yet similar.

Booher, Zucker, Astone and Bennett strategically work well as a team. Cantos story improves with each issue and engages the readers excitement for the upcoming conclusion.

Spectacular! Plenty of heart with hope and courage!

Excellence #3 is the best issue yet and I cannot wait for the next issue.

Excellence #4 is action pact and entertaining between the brotherly hate to love you emotions. There are secrets that Spencer and Aaron are avoiding, but why?!

Thomas uses some hardcore adult language, but the dialogue is very acceptable. He chooses the words and timing to engage the reader in a deep culture. Randolph's artwork excels a hip-hop superhero style that intrigues the imagination. Emilio Lopez uses beautiful bright and vivid colors to bring out the magic in each panel. It's the power of Deron Bennett lettering that draws the attention and guides the reader to connect the all aspects of this story.

The trespass against us may be hard to take in and digest. Excellence #6 is the bitter sweet life lessons that need to be absorbed.

It takes concerted effort to undermine an organization. Will the mystery creature be what Spencer needs to take down Aegis or an indication of his defeat?

This is a fun issue, but may not be for everyone. However, if you are a diehard Hulk and / or Wolverine fan, that you cannot go wrong with Hulkverines #1.

As a whole, Hulkverines #2 is fun and appealing to the eye.

Treat this as an "What if" and enjoy it for what it's worth.

Immortal Hulk is one of the best Marvel titles from their previous relaunch and a must have masterpiece!

Immortal Hulk is one of the best Marvel titles from their previous relaunch and a must have masterpiece!

Each issue of the Immortal Hulk thus far, Al Ewing and his creative team continues to carry that torch of their predecessors and take fans back to a gothic horror genre with influential theories on psychodynamics. Ewing uses the dark and morbid nature of humans with traumatic experiences that Banner/Hulk to provide a fresh new direction for long time fans as well as new readers.

What else can be said?This is a must read comic book!

The artwork by Joe Bennent and Ruy Jose are incredibly grotesque in his depictions of the Hulk and each hollow shell character. He creates a magnificent and chilling version of Hell. The page where Hulk tears a certain someone into pieces, Bennents art will make your stomach churn. Paul Mounts coloring skills excels in this issue as he switches between black and white to the modern-old school horror elements that perfectly accentuates the various apocalyptic and symbolic energy of the imagination.

Immortal Hulk #12 is quite insightful in DID awareness, poor parenting, and social behaviors. A must have to comic book collection!

Immortal Hulk #13 is a stunning conclusion to our time in Gamma Hell. Judging from the revelations of this issue, were just getting started and I could not be happier about that. My only complaint is that the confrontation between the Hulk and Banners dad is too brief. However, he had his spotlight in the last issue.

Al Ewing continues to recount Hulks history, the inspirations that have been taken from Bruce, and the influence of gamma onto various people. Ewing brings out a tortured tale of what kind of impact the Banner/Hulk has had. The art by Kyle Holz is superb in this issue, but not at the same caliber as Joe Bennet.

Ewing continues to knock out the brilliant psychodynamics with Immortal Hulk #15. Kyle Hotzs artwork and coloring by Paul Mounts shows how well they work together for a modern day dark and horrific style with an old-school touch. The artwork and colors on Ewings Samsons flashback story jump out and immediately catches the eye. I cannot wait to see who and what Ewing and his amazing talented team will shine the darkness upon next.

Horrifically interesting with outstanding dead-on Hulk backstory references!

Immortal Hulk #17 kicks ass, but I anticipate that the next issue will be nothing less than an ABOMINATION!

Al Ewing and his artistic team continues to WOW us as they create a masterpiece with each issue showing the time, dedication, and research placed into each page, panel and issue.

Each issue we learn something more about a character and The Immortal Hulk #21 intrigues the reader enough to be excited for what Ewing will bring next for our favorite green goliath.

Immortal Hulk #22 has little action, but still holds the exciting psychodynamics and horrific tone. Whos ready for the next issue? I am!

Horrific action to your very bones with complex mysteries that keeps the reader wanting for more!

Pure, unfiltered horror that will leave you wanting more!

The narrative is sharp on colors by Chris OHalloran and Paul Mounts relating physical laws of the universe. The artwork by German Garcia, Joe Bennett, and Ruy Jose fills each page with elaborate details, forcing the reader to hang on every aspect of this crafted alien story.

The Immortal Hulk #26 is an awesome transition from focusing on Hulk himself into a story about the monster of Bruce Banner. The dialogue signifies an intense and serious story for the major characters as they decipher through the madness. The conversation between Amadeus Cho was important for Bruce to get a Hulks support, but it didnt seem to go as well as planned. Theres not much action in this issue, but the tone and pacing of the storyline is near perfect. It is exciting to see where Ewing takes us next!

An awesome What if storyline where relationships takes the wheel with solid artwork.

Whether you choose to follow the mashed-up hero tie-in issues or not, Infinity Wars is an absolute blast addition to Marvels alternate cosmic stories exploring different paths as certain measures are applied by each character.

Infinity Wars #6, a 50-page finale, tied up the loose ends. The creative team pulled some interesting strings that are sure to make cosmic fans happy.

Dark & horrifically fun story! I cannot wait to read issue #2!

Once & Future #1 may be light on action, but it is well put together with realism, mythology, and a fresh twist on an old legend.

Once & Future #2 is a solid issue, but heavier in psychodynamics would give that WOW factor that it needs. Nonetheless, I am eager for to see whats next!

Intriguing to find out if King Arthur succeeds or if Galahad will betray him for the gift of immortality! Maybe Duncan will be the successor of this story?!

Wondrously unreal, great eye candy for the fantasy/supernatural imagination. Great dynamics with a twist to the Arthurian mythology.

Dark and gruesome; thats where the talent of Dan Mora and Tamra Bonvillain visual rhythm enhances Gillens smooth pacing. Mora capitalizes on his artistic strengths as he demonstrates with small details and differences on each character with such intense emotions. More and the coloring by Bonvillain nailed their talent in each panel from the first page to the last. My absolute favorite is how the art and colors splatters as the freshly risen Beowulf makes a forceful statement that makes me melt!

Shatterstar #1 has detail characterization with some good humor. Overall, I thought it was fun, but just OK. Still, its worth checking out.

Shatterstar #2 is enjoyable and we get some sweet action, fantastic flashbacks, and an explanation to the relationship status quo.

Looking for mindless entertainment. This is for you.

The cliffhanger to Shatterstar #4 was both confusing as it is exciting enough to look forwards to the conclusion of this miniseries.

As this Shatterstar solo miniseries has come to a close, for me it has been a fun read with just enough substance in each issue to push me and wonder what's next. I really enjoyed the flashbacks and how Tim Seeley threw in a past lover to explain why Shatterstar and Rictor has a history of on an off again and again relationship. Seeley ends his run with a sweet ending with many possibilities for the story to continue.

High initiative and extremely intriguing, STRIKEFORCE #1 is on a bloody good start!

Strikeforce #2 is fun & exciting for all with an open mind!

Dan Slott and Valerio Schiti is providing a fresh and fun take on this favorite Marvel character. Each issue so far has been full of great ideas involving science, technology, and very strong statements.

Tony Stark Iron Man #5 is a great quality of intensity to the Self-Made Man storyline. Arno Stark, super-genius with the perfect vision of the task on hand. However, be careful as his sweet goodies may leave a dirty sour taste. Great read!

I enjoyed the previous done-in-one stories of the last five issues, but really excited as the creative team tackle a larger storyline. I highly recommend including this in your pull list!

Tony Stark Iron Man #7 is a great tool for family interaction and discussion.

Tony Stark Iron Man #8 is a game changer. Bottoms Up!

I am completely hooked! If youre not collecting Tony Stark Iron Man, catch up!

To be human or not to be human. Tony Stark Iron Man #14 touches some realistic issues while feeding the imagination and theoretical subplots.

Diversity has always been a major topic to tackle and Tony Stark Iron Man #15 is a prime example. I love Dan Slotts devotion to this major Marvel hero!

Tony Stark Iron Man #16 is action packed and ends with you on the edge of your seat. I cannot wait to see what happens to Tony next!

Action pack with plenty of imagination on cybernetics! Tony Stark will never be the same again!

Turok #3 takes a moment to build character development and enough action adventure to intrigue the reader to be excited for the next issue.

Turok #4 is my favorite issue thus far. Not perfect, but Marz clearly has the skill to give his fans what they want!

Overall, I really enjoyed Turok #5. We learn that Turok uses the power of The Stone to send everyone home, but realizes his responsibility and must stay in the Lost Valley for good. His loyal brother makes the decision to stay as well. Marz leaves an open ending for the classic dinosaur hunters of the past or maybe, just maybe a possibility to Turoks return in a new ongoing series! Time will tell.

Weapon H #8 lacks in action, but makes up in character development as they enter a new setting. This may not be the best place for new readers to begin. Pick up issues #1 through #7 and youll become a fan as you continue with issue #8.

Weapon H #9 is a fun adventure into Weirdword with just enough of action and twists caused by Roxxon Corporation.

Guiu Vilanova, Morry Hollowell, and Chris Sotomayor are quite the artistic team. The action scenes are clear and powerful as forces clashed. The art and coloring are impressive that engages the quality of each character development. He consistency of artistic talent shines in each issue and I look forward to more in Weapon H #12.

The most stimulating aspect of this storyline is how Greg Pack uses Darrio Aggar as the main villain. Aggar knows what makes heroes tick and has the ability to use that level of understanding to his advantage.

Wild Storm #20 is a suspenseful, action packed, science fiction issue with a touch of romance that leaves the townspeople questioning What the %$#@ just happened?

The Wild Storm is a decent issue; however, it pulls the breaks instead of extending from last months excitement.

The Wild Storm has been a hurricane of a story and its exciting to see how this plays out in the remaining two issues.

Perfect? No. Compelling? YES! Young Avengers #1 leaves you wanting for more!

This series seems to be more down to Earth, witty and realistic at times in regards to teenage actions and emotions. This issue has great dialog with a surprisingly complex and intriguing plot. Jim Cheung & John Dell provided great details in their artwork. Each panel is laid out almost perfectly. These two highly skilled artists along with colors by Justin Ponsor pack some power and greatly enhance Heinberg's storytelling.

Young Avengers are quite an eclectic mix of people and it somehow works.

Young Avengers #4 cliffhanger, ok, give me the next issue! I need to know how this first arc ends!
