    Astonishing Iceman #4 continues the trend of the previous issue by introducing Spider-Man in a cameo appearance. Unfortunately, this takes away from the titular character enough for this issue to feel like filler content. Read Full Review

    The villain storyline woven between everything isn't as compelling as Iceman's own story, and there's a lengthy block of text in the form of a letter that slowed everything to a crawl, but those are relatively small issues that don't bring down all the things that clearly work. Hopefully we get more teacups down the line, but even if this is the only one, it's one I truly enjoyed. Read Full Review

    The writing, and especially artwork, are otherwise very strong, but the status quo and overall X-Men storyline is leaving this comic in the lurch. I wish an Iceman comic from Orlando could be more free. Read Full Review

    Astonishing Iceman #4 nearly repeats the same plot from the first three issues but throws in a final twist to give the illusion that Steve Orlando had more story than a one-shot in mind. The action is fun, and the last-page twist at least moves the story in a new direction, but the issue is largely a waste of time and money. Read Full Review

    Possibly the best issue so far with this one. Spider-Man being a guest star, of sorts, in this definitely helped. Carratù's art was really solid as well, and it has been throughout these past four issues. Back to the story, though, this was a fun team-up that kept me engaged throughout. While nothing spectacular, it was fairly enjoyable and it's always nice to see Peter and Bobby together.

    I appreciate the way the plot is developing, and the art is (mostly) great, but that Hound fight is a total boat anchor. It's too long, and the combat quips are horrifying.
