    Bleeding Cool - Joshua Davison Mar 2, 2018

    It is quite sad to see another book like this reach its ending, but the finale was beautiful nonetheless. With a deceptively simple plot, an optimistic finale, and good, if conflicting, art styles throughout, this ending earns a recommendation. Give it a read. Read Full Review

    From the characters, background, and dialogue, this creative team has served America Chavez well for her final issue. Who knows when we'll next see Marvel's boss ass bae. What we do know is that this isn't how the story ends for ya girl. Read Full Review

    If America #12 is somehow a reflection of Marvel's flaws, it's in Marvel's assumption that a comic book is the only way to bring new writers on-board. America #12 may not end on the best note, but Rivera still brings such charm and passion to America that it would still be great to see her given another shot in a YA novel or even a graphic novel in the future.

    America saves the day by being her extra-special extra-wonderful self. Normally you'd need to delve into the darkest depths of fanfiction to find wish-fulfillment this embarrassingly shameless. Why Marvel's editors chose to ennoble this silliness with 12 issues of good-to-great art is one of the biggest comics mysteries of 2017-2018.

    This final issue delivers a fair crop of individual panels that are pretty. There are even some nice bits of dialogue. Progressing through the story from idea to idea is torturous, though. It's like wading through a gauntlet of naive kiddos pummelling you with glitter-soaked wiffle bats.

    To tell a story, you have to show your protagonist making decisions. If your protagonist's key decision more

    Hola, mi gente! I had to come in and review the final issue!

    Planet Stronk is under assault by La Legion, which is spanish for The Legion! (What a boring name!) -- and of course America decides to try something dangerous (not just for her) to fight them off (Is Gabby aware of the term Unintentionally Unsympathetic?)

    So, America wants to power up by leeching some energy from this semi-sentient crystal that came out of Planet Stronk's butthole... and she let La Legion towards the crystal, and now is upset la Legion is trying to leech the crystal... idiota! Also, Gabby's spanglish continues to be terrible.

    It's actually hilarious that the redhead fuertona can't handle how much of a Mary Sue America actually is more
