Mar 24, 2009While technically adept at getting from point A to point B, the story does not succeed at being particularly original. Yes, it is quite satisfying if you've been reading the ongoing. It is even more so if you really like dinosaurs, but the message here is nothing new. Gage does his best, but it's really just a rehash of earlier ideas, which at times has some good characterization, but that's only great for fans of the series. Read Full Review

Mar 24, 2009While I cannot promise that I'm going to run out and preorder any of the next appearances of Reptil (to my knowledge, there aren't any yet) I did enjoy the story. At $3.99, this issue provides almost 40 pages of story. No unnecessary reprints or filler here, just the introduction of Marvel's self-proclaimed next hot character. Read Full Review

Another great special and the first appearance of Reptil. And now I'm going to be back on the main series... Damn, this artist is soooo great and fitting. With his absence the series lost its tone.
