TALES OF SUSPENSE #104 is action-packed and chaotic, and it works. The writing embodies the action and chaos, as does the illustration. The coloring presents the serious tone of the comic. Read Full Review
Tales of Suspense #104 brings a confused and confusing yet still quite enjoyable conclusion to the story. Bucky, Clint, and Natasha all reach something of a character resolution and have great action scenes on the way to doing so. Foreman and Rosenberg kill it on the visuals. This book gets a recommendation. Check it out. Read Full Review
This one went out with a whimper in my opinion, but I'm curious to see what the future holds. The ending sets up a follow up with I'm assuming the same heroes, but I'm sure focusing on Natasha and Bucky. I'd say I'm happy to read it and continue the story, however, I'm feeling very apathetic. Here's to hoping it's better in the next issue. If you're a fan of this group, check it out! Read Full Review
This story accomplished its goal of resurrecting the Black Widow, but at what cost? It certainly wasn't worth the cover price. Read Full Review
Welcome to the Oblivion Bar where the first round is on me and the pretzels are free! Be warned: like the pickled eggs at the bar, this issue is going to get SPOILED rotten.
We open with Bucky and Clint trapped by Natasha and Bucky without an arm. Natasha uses the arm to show the Red Room that she killed them and reaffirm their trust in her.
After they escape, Clint and Bucky find out that Natasha really isn’t bad and actually has a safe house with Boom-Boom and Ursa Major. Can I just say that I totally need to know more about Ursa Major? The way the character is written by Rosenberg is interesting and hilarious. If your reading this Rosenberg, I would love an ongoing with at least Clint and Ursa Major. I think tha more
Great ending. Rosenberg writes a great 3 team tango where all play their roles well. Foreman has gotten better in the last 2 issues and his art is well complimented by Rosenberg's colors. But this should've been 3-4 issues tops.
Natasha tears the New Red Room apart and the lads bumble into the last act to sort of help. Was it all part of her master plan, or did she have to improvise? This story concludes with ambiguity, but it doesn't feel fully intentional - more "We can't be arsed to settle the full meaning" than "we want to leave it up to the reader." The art is impressively ambitious, but it feels compressed. I'd love to see these panels expanded and given more space - this feels like a standard comic's worth of script but 1.5-2 comics' worth of art.
An ok ending to an otherwise pretty decent story. The art was really good and the story was good, but just didnt stick the landing the best.
