    The Bad:While I just sung praises for the change of pace, it was good, and not great, which definitely works against the title. This book is at a point that it really needs to WOW me to get me to care about it the way I did in the first arc, but it's just not happening.The It's fine...

Is it fair that I judge it on that? Probably not, but I'm being honest, and I'm not finding a great amount of joy reading it. Is it anyone's fault on the team right now? No. I can't really blame Nicieza for me not being that into the title anymore, that's like blaming the relief pitcher who comes in when your starter has given up 7 runs in 3 innings. BASEBALL.

But now, some of those qualities that made it so impressive are absent and aren't replaced by anything that makes up for their loss. Read Full Review
