Venomized #5

This has been a truly unique tale as only mighty Marvel can tell it! Read Full Review

VENOMIZED is not without fault, but Bunn helps the series' reputation by delivering a solid conclusion in VENOMIZED #5. By bringing in Jean Grey as the resolution for the series, Bunn pulls together multiple Venom arcs and gives the multi-series Venom comic event a suitable close. Read Full Review

Given the end result of the battle in space, which WAS epic and decisive, could it not have been amply covered already…in Poison X? Read Full Review

If I can speak now more about the Poison stories as a whole rather than this issue itself, I am without hesitation going to recommend that you skip all of them. If you’ve been on it so far, I can’t imagine why you’d listen to me telling you to bail now. If you’re waiting for the trades, save yourself some time and money. The Poisons stories generally fail consistently. Bland villains, no real threat, no genuine message, bad pacing – this is one that I definitely won’t be going back to. Read Full Review

Honestly, Venomized would have been a lot better if the dialogue was removed entirely and you could just look at the pictures. Read Full Review

The Poison threat is shut down with a thoroughly predictable deus ex Jean Grey. Epic battles are shortchanged left and right, and the whole thing is wrapped up with a brief epilogue that perfectly encapsulates "minimum effort." I'm thankful that it's over, but not in the way the creators would hope.

That was abrupt and disappointing ending to a pointless event that started from a bad storyline. But at least in Venomverse, Poisons felt like they were a threat. Now? They don't. Poison Thanos, who is supposedly as strong as Thanos with a symbiote is defeated by that Kid Kaiju guy very easily. Eddie headlocks Poison Doom(?). Cletus is now dead(?) until he isn't. Poison Wolverine exists now for some reason in the prime universe. Artwork was meh at best. Dialogue is a big letdown. There are so many characters to write so each one gets two-three panels. Venomverse was bad, Poison-X was a pointless crossover and this was the worst of these three. At least Donny Cates starts writing Venom next week. I'm actually hyped for that, since Mike Costa ended his storyline badly last week and Bunn's run shouldn't be mentioned. Ever. more
