Venom #22 brings two new players into this chaotic storyline, setting up the next phase in Dylan Brock's grand plan and creating some intriguing questions to be answered in his father's time-travel subplot. Read Full Review
After a few bonkers issues full of action, 'Venom' slows things down a bit to catch up with Dylan. In the process, it nicely fits a few more puzzle pieces together for Eddie's next big throwdown. Read Full Review
I think this is the best Dylan has been written by Ewing. Such creativity.
But yeah, still loving this book, what else is new?
It feels like we're cooking with gas here. The art is generally strong, though ironically, Venom's look might be my least favorite part of the visuals (Not bad by any means, just strangely, vaguely "off"). The author's struck a good balance between mysterious foreshadowing and immediate action--and there's a nice dose of solid humor to bind it all together and make the reading experience fun.
I really agree with what Afre said in their review, in that I think this is the best job Ewing has done with writing Dylan thus far. I think his voice felt more genuine and authentic. As for the story itself, I found it entertaining and good, as can be seen by my rating, though I also feel as though this isn't Ewing's strongest work on the title. Although, it is well-documented at this point that I prefer Eddie's side of the story in this title to Dylan's, no matter who's writing it. Something I do want to point out, though, is how crazy it is that Flexo is being used in this series right now. If you don't already know, Flexo was a character from the 1940's that was seen in the first four issues of Mystic Comics. It wasn't until this currenmore
It was alright. Had a good concept. Art looked pretty good. Just felt like it was missing something. Also, I get that covers sometimes don't really have anything to do with the story, but I hate totally misleading covers and this is one.
