PARENTAL ADVISORY
Savage Avengers #4 surmounts the high bar this book has already set. Pepose, Magno, Grundetjern, and Lanham are doing amazing work. There are so many great moments throughout this issue that will make readers smile, make them feel, entertain them, and leave them begging for more. Savage Avengers is the team book everyone should be reading. Read Full Review
Savage Avengers #4 has completely transformed the series. With each issue comes a different set of circumstances that changes the fabric of the book entirely, taking it in a direction that I dont think anyone saw coming. Read Full Review
A familiar hero gets a heartbreaking second origin and not in the way you expect. Though the entire team gets a spotlight, Pepose and Magno create a tragic new version of Miles Morales that will resonate in the Marvel Universe for a long time. Read Full Review
Writer David Pepose is known for remixing concepts and he's done it with this series and two well established characters and makes it look smooth. And is it the death of Conan the Barbarian!? Is this how he's written out of Marvel comics!? Add in solid art and this has been a fun series that's probably not on enough radars. Read Full Review
What is pretty fantastic, however, is the art. This might be the best art on the series thus far, with one panel in particular with all the heroes leaping into the scene that is just a real delight. Read Full Review
Not much to like here. It was a step up from bad, but not quite good. The art was pretty cool. Story was bland.
