    AMERICA #7 presents the titular hero with profound depth that is paralleled by some exquisite artwork. Read Full Review

    I'm wanting to see more of this world and Chavez interacting with it. Rivera and the artist team did an incredible job of giving Chavez more depth through Madrimar being added to her supporting cast and link to her past. Chavez has had a lot of truth revealed to her in a short amount of time. There's a lot to think about but as we discover, there are forces at play gunning for America. This origin building is a great look for America Chavez and will def be an issue that's going to be a cornerstone for her history moving forward. Read Full Review

    This one issue won't answer all your questions " but it does show clearly, proudly, defiantly, that its heart is in the right place. And sometimes that's all you need to come back for more. Read Full Review

    While the exposition is pretty overwhelming, I cant say that this isnt an engaging issue. The presented mythos is cool, and America is an engaging character through which to experience all this. Plus, there are some really emotionally weighty moments that support the narrative. I have to recommend this title. Its good, and Marvel certainly isnt marketing it well enough. Read Full Review

    America's abuela Madrimar gifts her with a double-secret double-latina double-lesbian origin that drapes around her existing backstory like a pointless onion layer. To me the best part of this title is the fact that *America herself* finds this new granny and her crazy Gabby Rivera wish-fulfillment ret-cons irritating, but that's surely unintentional. The vast art team covers the bases from "nearly competent" to "not even close," rendering the visuals just as appealing as the story here. This is about as close as this title can get to entertaining and it's woefully far from the mark. At least the Exterminatrix is sneering around the last page promising something resembling actual conflict in the coming issues.

    More propaganda for the most extreme of liberals only. Not quite as bad as some issues of this awful series though.

    This was actually the best issue written by Rivera yet. It's still horrible, but not comlplete trash like the other issues...As I said in previews reviews, the magic of this comic is how atrocious it is. When it's not bad, it becomes...just pointless to keep reading this...

    This was the the worse issue in that regard, so I think it deserves my lowest grade yet

    First of all, given that she was born in a lesbian utopia in a parallel dimension with no actual concept of what latina, latinamerica or even the United States is -- why is the cover a homage to Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA" album?



    Isn't "Pa'lante" usually a slang puerto rican drag queens use?



    Sky novelas, AND GIANT SPACE LESBIAN SPIRITS! [Judges in Spanish]



    Planet Fuertona? And what the fuck is a Malenapedes?



    Also, apparently demons prefer gender-neutral pronouns.



    The bit about the dead cat was actually heartfelt. They tried to make this thing about about America and her grandma and trying to connect and unable to because America got ove more
