Wow. Never would have guessed that. These are keepers for me. So no selling on this end unless I have to.

myconius - Nov 15, 2025

Yeah. Same here. Makes it all the better seeing how much some of these issues are selling for. And I thankfully jumped on both sets of covers A & B. Definitely keeping them.

Good. But not as good as the prior issue. Not much forward progression of story in this issue. Felt like a lot of rehashing for people who didn’t understand the first 3 issues.

Marvel Knights: The World To Come #4

By: Christopher Priest, Joe Quesada

The full scope of this vision comes into focus as the whole of the Marvel Universe faces THE WORLD TO COME. Do not underestimate Ketema. The world is all tied up in a knot and the only solution may be blowing the whole damned thing up.

I actually think the Jed Mackay portion of this storyline is being executed pretty well. But i am tired of cross overs and dystopian futures. And no more than two X-men books that’s it.

This was an excellent conclusion to the series. The art was some of the best in all of the issues. There was one beautiful homage to a classic Neal Adams Batman that brought a smile to my face. It was the famous splash page from Batman #251. Sherman homages it in the sequence where it’s being said- “Fire does set the lizard brain alight”. Look at that Batman figure in comparison to the figur more

It makes me a little sad that this series has been pretty low on the radar. It’s honestly the best Batman story we’ve gotten in recent years. I’m hoping it takes off once the collected edition gets released.

"So keeping that in mind he really liked this one!" The type of comment that disgusts me most about woke people (including transgender) is seeing everything through the lens of social equality, regardless of whether the person is offering negative criticism.

sad comics - Nov 11, 2025 (edited)

On his profile, he gave low ratings to books that are, in fact, shit, and here he doesn't need to explain that this feminist cancer simply burns the Planet Hulk concept. Deliver us of the red plague and comics will return to what they once were, and woke can go back to your closet from which should never have left.

daspidaboy - Nov 5, 2025

there's moments of levity that shows Matt Fraction is at least having fun and not taking some inspiration from Morrison's works. Damian kicking Bruce in the balls. Bernard and Bruce's relationships. I am not a big fan of slow burns, but Matt Fraction does it well, and he just makes Bruce Wayne feel more human. We all know how Bruce Wayne is all serious and brooding who doesn't joke, but writers forget that Bruce Wayne can be funny in his own way. This feels like a 1960s Batman in the modern era

George - Nov 6, 2025

Bruce smiling at the thought of Van Gogh painting a 100 starry nights is the panel that got me. The story is going somewhere I want to go. I’m calling it now… Bruce is quitting, which is different than getting his back broken or being anti lifed by darkseid. Because he chooses it. At least temporarily of course…

For me this is the best issue so far.
It is written very old school. Very early 80s Batman with many small subplots going on at once.
Jimenez nails the small moments so well.

I've really been enjoying this series. Sci-fi, spycraft and sarcasm make a great mix. The best part about it are the characters, so much comedy gold from the various supporting cast. Part of me really wants to see this made into a movie, but the other part has no confidence the right people would be put in charge of making it and it would be terrible.

Another masterfully written story. It's hard to criticize Francis Portela's art, as it is absolutely perfect, but I think it might be a little too pretty and clean for Hyde Street. I can't help but wonder what the issue would have looked like illustrated by regular artist Ivan Reis.

I can see your point. It's a matter of personal taste. I wasn't an initial fan of Reis's either, but his artwork grew on me pretty fast. I don't see too much similarity to Adams - but even if there was, why shouldn't it work? Very few artists reinvent the wheel completely.

George - Nov 6, 2025

For me Reis is an excellent artist with a classic style. I think this title needs someone that can do creepy. Best comparison I can think of is Romita versus Ditko.
