THE FUTURE ENDS HERE!
• Run by Doctor Doom and bereft of heroes by design, 2099 is a rough place.
• All power and no responsibility, the world is in trouble and no one is helping. Is there truly no hope?
Rated T
Not as epic as a story as I wanted, but it entertains and serves its purpose. A popcorn movie told in comic form. Read Full Review
2099 was reintroduced as a glimpse into the future. As it turns out, that is all this is, a glimpse. While books like Punisher and Conan were fantastic, it turns out the core of the concept was just another look at a Spider-Man origin story. If this had been the intro for an ongoing, it could have been something more. As such, the ending is somewhat dissatisfying and leaves the reader wanting more. Read Full Review
"2099 Omega" #1 is a disappointing way to follow-up the previous work with Marvel's 2099 one-shots but still captures a few important plot moments. Read Full Review
This new 2099 was a hodgepodge of some neat ideas which unfortunately falls flat in the finale. A head scratcher more than anything. Read Full Review
This was basically Spider-Man 2099 #2. I enjoyed it, but it had a definite non-ending to it. I understand that it's supposed to usher in a new age of heroes, and that's what this event has really been about, but Doctor Doom is still running things at the end. The heroes have hope, I guess, but things are still incredibly bad for everyone. I hope that this week's Amazing Spider-Man, that I haven't read yet, offers clarity on this.
An okay story with an okay conclusion. Nothing special, definitely underwhelming, but it seems that this will very likely be continued sometime in the future.
Well, it wasn't that bad actually. Pretty okay too, like ASM #36. I didn't like this storyline very much, but I would be interested to see more.
Still just so much future.
Kind if a dud but had some really interesting parts. Definitely didnt need to be a big thing like it was.
The Omega closes out 2099 as a non-event. It was all setup and no payoff. An origin. An act one. Blah.
The "Doom over all" aspect might tempt you to compare this to Secret Wars 2099, which is a way better story. But the closest analogue is really that Marvel Knights 20th miniseries from a few months back. They share a "heroes sloooowly waking up in a world without superheroes" premise, and they have similar "total lack of closure" problems.
A bland and boring event that wasn't interesting and had inconsistent art
I don't think I missed an issue of the new 2099, but what the hell did i just read here!?!
