  Marvel Disassembled - Michael Bowie

  While this isn't the best issue of the book so far, I could at the very least have done without the Twilight reference, it's still a good read, it still moves the story forward. Speaking of the story, the idea so far has been that Morbius, recently escaped from prison in one of the last issues of Amazing Spider-Man, has found himself in Brownsville, which seems to be a dead end town filled with low level criminals, with the idea of laying low. But what kind of book would this be if that worked out, so obviously his life has just gotten more complicated with each passing issue. Add to this that Joe Keatinge writes Morbius with a self-deprecating self-awareness that comes off at once as charming, funny, and believable and while you don't have a typical super hero book, you do have a worthy addition to the Marvel line up. Give Morbius a chance folks, I think you'll enjoy it. Read Full Review

  My god, 3 issues and I'm still into Morbius The Living Vampire. Who would have thought that possible. I honestly think I like Michael Morbius as the 'hero', a term I use very lightly, than I like Otto-Spidey. Read Full Review
