"Its not our gods who give us strength. It's the others the damn around. "
The finale to Aaron’s Daredevil story was pretty disappointing, as Wilson Fisk doesn’t even appear. Kurse is revealed to be Waziria, which I thought was a cool twist but Matt’s speech was so generic and his fight with Malekith was boring. Aaron just doesn’t quite understand that Matt is a devoted Catholic, and that he wouldn’t refer to himself as a god. The best story is Cantwell’s Dr Doom one. It’s unique and refreshing and it really gets to you. In my opinion, the Doctor Doom story is the best of the series. The She Hulk story was pretty good but poorly drawn
The Daredevil strip is good, but the She-Hulk strip is a god-damned treasure. Can we get Charlie Jane Anders and Simone D'Armini 60 issues of a She-Hulk solo, please?
-- THE GOD WITHOUT FEAR: This is dope, though I admit to being a bit confused as to what magic rules a shattered Bifrost follows -- A ROSE FOR VICTOR: I love this so much; as soon as Doom seems to be a hero he commands his peasants to kneel! Wouldn't want to break character. -- THE FACE OF A WARRIOR: The narrative is okay but goddamn that's some wonky artwork!
The Daredevil and Doctor Doom stories were good, but the She-Hulk one fell a little flat.
