Morbius #1 is a worthy callback to the decade that spawned the Living Vampire. It delivers angst and horror and bloodshed, leavened with some smart philosophy. Whether you want to learn about the fears that drive Morbius or just see him slash some dudes up, this comic delivers. And I think its parts are balanced enough that most readers will find themselves enjoying both sides of the coin. Read Full Review

Is he man or is he monster? Morbius #1 proposes both! But the real fun of this debut is seeing the pathology behind both, how he becomes a monster in order to cure the man inside " and leaving us to wonder, how long can he keep this up? Hopefully Vita Ayala, Marcelo Ferreira, Roberto Poggi, and Dono Sanchez-Almara have an answer for the monster lovers out there, along with more nightmarish visuals and poetic characterization.

A simple story outshined by vivid action sequences. Read Full Review

Although the introduction of the characters could have been handled better, the premise of this story and the artwork have me really looking forward to issue two. Give this a chance, I have a feeling we'll all be pleasantly surprised. At least I hope so! Read Full Review

Yes, he sounds like the lead singer of a Death Metal band, but Michael Morbius turns out to be a great character here. Can he sustain his own book? We'll see. For now, though, a great book to get your teeth into. Read Full Review

Maybe future issues will improve on the debut retroactively"you know, the Age of Ultron effect. In and of itself, however, Morbius #1 stopped short of wowing me in ways I expect from launch issues. Read Full Review

This first of Morbius issue is equal parts action equal parts exposition, as Morbius is portrayed as an ethically ambiguous super-powered being, who views his powers as a curse and would rather not have them. Read Full Review

Marcelo's art feels repetitive once you go past a few panels. It gives you a sense of dj vu as the first few pages look the same. Everything starts feeling the same as the tricks and characters are overused. Shadows are overused trying to build suspense and the characters started looking the same from panel to panel. As the issue only has two settings, it's hard to not make the background look the same but with a bad perspective, it becomes redundant quick. Overall Morbius is not a good book. Trying to find redeeming qualities in it was daunting and unaccomplished. Every aspect of it felt rushed as if trying to maintain a deadline or to keep the rights to the character. I do not see this comic sticking around for long and sadly there is a reason the Legacy number for Morbius hasn't gone past 50. Read Full Review

Morbius kicks off a super-science feud with the Melter. This intro strikes a nice balance between explaining Morbius's fundamental status quo and showing him in action -- with a bonus serving of Aristotelian philosophy helping to explore his character. A sound script is ennobled with some outstanding horror art. It's a satisfying read in itself and it's successfully engaged my enthusiasm for future chapters.

This was actually a good issue. I wasn't expecting much at all from it, but I feel like it delivered an entertaining read.

It's not terrible. Pretty good art, though the bright colors don't always fit the gore that's presented. Story wise, it's kind of lacking. Here's a short summary (if you don't want spoilers, stop here):C-list villain, Morbius, faces off against G-list villain, The Melter, and his goons. Morbius gets the cure for his Not-Vampirism Vampirism. After taking said cure, Morbius thinks he's cured for some reason, despite still looking like a vampire. Meanwhile, a blonde with a grudge against Morbius teams up w/ Melter (A Van Helsing I'm assuming. Had to look her up. Do they expect people to know who that is?). Oh also, surprise! Cure didn't work. I'm not exactly "invested" so far. In conclusion: Who asked for this?

Who?

Beautiful art but very weak script. Start was great. I really enjoyed horror sequences, that reminded me first issue of Immortal Hulk. But then story continues with very chaotic and boring scenes. Twists were without surprise and they followed classic template. Very wasted potential.
