Nicieza tries to make something of nothing, turning it into a character piece about Sinister, but it ultimately feels at best like part of a larger story that doesn't exist. Read Full Review

If you're gonna turn back the clock decades and inject new material into old stories, this is the way to do it. It's a self-contained one-shot that doesn't mess up established continuity, instead adding depth and irony to what's come before.

The prose and art are both definitely retro, with the latter being a bit more appealing. Neither wear out their welcome, though.

In case it's not already clear, what I appreciate most about this comic is that it's a one-and-done.

That, and I always love seeing Sinister getting played. If he's playing *himself*, it's that much better.
