    Not quite what I was expecting, but it takes itself just seriously enough to make the reader do the same. Also: Marvel sure knows how to hire artists lately. Read Full Review

    By itself, this was a great story. I give credit to Way and Talajic for surprising me with an entertaining story that I wasn't expecting. I just hope that this doesn't open the floodgates for more Hit-Monkey stories, as I'd hate to see him go the way of the Marvel Zombies and overstay his welcome. Read Full Review

    The price here seems rather steep for a previously released tale, but for those keen on monkey business, the extra dollar will prove to be negligible. Read Full Review

    I'm here after the show. I really liked the TV series and it was very interesting to see his origin in comics. And I was so surprised, when I understood that it's almost 100% the same as in the show. Yeah, they made it kinda better and more detailed in show, but still, that's the first time I see when TV show or movie does this... With this in mind I can say that it's one of the best origins for a character... I couldn't even imagine this background for a character like Hit-Monkey and I thought they made it different for the show. It's just wow, really. That's so bad, that he has almost no solo comics at all...
