If you really think this is a 1/10, which I doubt, you have no taste.
Felicia Hardy prides herself on the fact that she can get into ANYWHERE... but does that REALLY include Doctor Strange's SANCTUM SANCTORUM?! Can the Black Cat get into the most protected house in the Marvel Universe? YES. But the question really is... can she handle what's inside?
Rated T
A few thieves enter the home of a sorcerer supreme to steal an artifact. One of them is a ticking time bomb. Anything could happen. Its a simple premise that MacKay and Foreman have a great deal of fun with. That fun easily transfers to the reader in another thoroughly enjoyable issue of the Black Cats new series. If MacKay and Foreman can maintain this level of quality and originality, this series is going to be a lot of fun. Read Full Review
This is the best hero book published by Marvel, but she's not really a hero, is she? I love the personalities of all the characters, with Felicia just being so awesome. The artwork is to die for, with every page a wonder in characters and settings. The colors are gorgeous, increasing the tension and directing the eye perfectly. This is a book one can only hope goes on eternally with these creators. Make Mine Black Cat! Highest possible recommendation. Read Full Review
If you thought the first issue was good you'll love the character work and dialogue of the second. The story is developing nicely and there's some fabulous art to go with it. Read Full Review
Everything at work in this book was already great, but adding in a crazed Merlin and a trip to the Sanctum Santorum make it even better. It's time to add this one to your pull list. Read Full Review
Black Cat #2 teases the reader for the first few pages before revealing the location. Knowing her own limits, the Black Cat enlists the help of a doped-up magician to deal with the inexplicable the team will face once inside. Despite the bizarre sights and obstacles they traverse, the plan goes mostly to plan… that is until the Cat looses control of Xander only moments after putting her paws on her prize leading to all kinds of complications and obstacles between the Black Cat and the front door. Worth a look. Read Full Review
With another strong issue in Black Cat #2 Jed MacKay and Travel Foreman are quickly establishing this series as one of Marvel's best. This issue moved at a brisk pace and never wasted time. The story with Black Cat and her crew stealing something from Doctor Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum was a lot of fun. Combining the strong pacing and fun story together made the ending of Black Cat #2 even more effective hook to find out what happens next. Read Full Review
Being that this is only the second issue, it's still too early to conclude whether or not this comic is a worthy monthly purchase, but so far, nothing about it is intriguing enough to hook readers. Read Full Review
The shame about the some of the covers is that the ratios were so high its hard to tell if the interest were in the books organically or if it was just because of the high ratios. Read Full Review
This new series is off to a rough start, with bargain basement art and too much story crammed into a single issue. Read Full Review
At the Fox's direction, Felicia pulls a heist on the Sanctum Sanctorum. Much goes wrong, but hiring Xander the Merciless for a magical consult was the standout mistake of the evening. Plot and pace are solid, the art is serviceable, and Felicia's voice is an absolute delight. She's an antihero you'd totally want to have drinks with -- though any valuables and currency on your person would doubtless go walkabout by the end of the night.
Cross-media touchstone: Jed MacKay is the 21st-century comics version of Howard Hawks.
This book is a lot of fun, I just wish the art was better.
I get the feeling this is running out of steam very early in its run.
This was okay.
"A scream of pure agony. A soul tortured beyond its limits."
How did the book know what I was feeling internally while reading this?
