After being successfully resurrected, Unstoppable Wasp has proven why it's one of the best series Marvel's publishing time and time again, with this latest issue being no exception. Jeremy Whitley, Alti Firmansyah, Espen Grundetjern, Joe Caramagna deliver must-read mental health, LGBTQA+ rep and boatloads of charm. And like Nadia Van Dyne herself, it seems that there's no limit to how good Unstoppable Wasp can get! Read Full Review
Its always going to be a bit difficult to find the right market for a comic book like this. A STEM-stressing social ensemble serial that is so obviously pointed at girls can feel like its reaching a bit too far to try to reach its target demographic. Thankfully Whitley and company are diligently piecing together a product that holds an appeal beyond its target demo. Theres nothing quite. Like this on the comic book rack right now. Hopefully, it can continue to find its audience as the series progresses. Read Full Review
A fun and wonderful character-based issue is a little too soft and cheerful. I would have rather seen Jeremy Whitley keep the stakes and tension a little sharper than what we get. Read Full Review
It's like the comic wanted to touch on a serious, life-changing topic before going back to its upbeat tone, and it feels a bit jarring as a result. Read Full Review
Nadia mends fences with Taina, enters therapy, and looks forward to a birthday party. And her hench-GIRLs get ample development of their own, with Priya developing plant superpowers and Ying defending Shay through a wonderfully-portrayed terrible coming out. It's a dense script, and the verbosity comes off (mostly) as the exuberance of energetic girls. The art is cute and cartoony and expressive, not disappointing in any way, yet still a cut below GuriHiru's sky-high bar.
This was a good issue that made me care about the ensemble a little bit more than I had before.
Felt a teensy bit like filler almost? Like yeah character was happening, but none of it really connected for me.
