Clever, great artwork, and overall lots of fun. Penn Jillette's guest foray into comics is unsurprisingly enjoyable. Read Full Review
Force-feeding us Penn and Teller in this issue made about as much sense as Deadpool shaking hands with Alf or the Kool-Aid Man. In fact, the latter might have been even more enjoyable. That being said, I don't actually think Penn Jillette is a bad comic book writer, per se, especially given that it's his first Marvel effort; he just needs something that isn't so self-indulgent to show off his chops (and an editor to tell him “No,” when he decides to actually *be* in the comic he's writing).

With overbearing narration and disjointed plotting, celebrity guest writer Penn Jillette delivers a tale that might appeal to his fans, but leave those more unfamiliar with his act wanting a book more focused on its title characters. Read Full Review
We're not going to sit here and moan any more, just know that you can easily avoid this issue and carry on reading from Issue #12. Read Full Review
the hell was this
[ART: 7.5 | STORY: 4 | WRITING: 2.5 | TOTAL: 4.6 (~4.5)] I was really wanting this to end halfway through. Just as the main story started to intrigue me again, another guest issue plagued my interest. I found the humour to be severely lacking and it didn't help that it was submerged within a weak concept. At least the art was alright.
I started this, convinced I wasn't going to like it, briefly thought "Well, it could be OK, this seems fun," but by the finish couldn't wait for it to end...
