Idk...can never get behind these books ruining my childhood heroes but cool art?

$6 for something that should be big but "ultimately" ,tee hee, feels unimportant.

Fantastic.

Bad art with beyond boring "stories" with no action for 99% of the book. Queer people might actually like to see SOME fighting instead of feeling in their SUPER HERO comics once in a while. Also, I thought Tim Sheridan was all but hurt over DC not supporting his Gay Lantern book and was done with them. I guess not....unfortunately. I think this book is a prime example of how agendas and identity do not really equal talent. Spend some money on quality talent to show you care about a group of people instead of simple lip service at a gouging ten dollar price tag. more

Aside from the usual hints of woke nonsense (I really don't like the inflationary use of the word "bigotry" as a catch all word for anything inconvenient or challenging), this was another surprisingly great read. I think I even noticed some Claremontian magic - the costume transformations, but also some thoughtful character dynamics. Uncanny X-Men is slowly becoming my favorite X-title (which, to be fair, isn't hard, since X-Factor and X-Force have been cancelled and everything else with an X on it is pretty much dogshit). more

The experiment of Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzig writing comic books needs to come to an end. There is no rhyme or reason to this nor is there any demand for it. This isn't fun and it doesn't help to endear Kamala Khan to a fan base that already hates the idea of her being a mutant. This celebrates nothing. Save your money and time.

Brainiac - A being without compassion - managed to revive the emotion and friendship that was imbued between the two. Wonderful. Lex is an incredible character. I loved this series.

The art is wonky for sure but a good story can make up for that, unfortunately that's not really what we got. A look back on Supes life that only a few newbies would want to read seems like a waste, and if anyone really wanted to buy the book for that it would need MUCH better art. This seems like a poorly written excuse to remind everyone how lawful good and noble Clark is with a strange hook just thrown in at the end to try to get folks back for more. This is feeling like a Bendis situation to me. I had high hopes for this as I'm not a Slott hater but it's just....bleh. more

I was a little worried in the beginning of this book with the simple dialogue and outdated feel but the book picks up speed quickly and reminds Ben Grimm fans why they love him and shows new readers the ever-lovin' blue eyed Thing in the right kind of light to make them life long fans. The art is serviceable and the coloring is wonderful. When I read The Warriors style intro I knew this would be my kind of jam. more

Lemire rocks.

This was the good kind of mindless violence and fun I was hoping to get from Wolverine:Revenge.

I went into this issue hoping for something fresh and compelling, but what I found was disappointingly shallow. The writing felt overly simplistic and strangely outdated—not in a nostalgic or intentional way, but more like something pulled straight from a half-hearted script from the 1950s, without any of the charm. The character responses to major situations lacked any real depth or originality, and the dialogue came off as forced and uninspired. For a first issue meant to launch a new chapter, this felt more like a misfire than a setup. It’s hard to shake the feeling that the creative team isn’t fully invested in making this book succeed more

Cutesy tripe that borders on unreadable. This is a book for fans of a certain type of writing and not specifically for fans of Supergirl so be warned. Of course if you know Sophie Campbells work then you already knew that. The art is too cartoony for me but is still well done except for the gopher teeth everyone has. The plump supergirl looks to be wearing a mouth guard in one panel. I'm not really sure why this type of book isn't under it's own imprint by now. more

Gotta say, art was phenomenal. And I liked what Kelly's idea was for this and message was heartful So, I can confidently say that if the hack fraud who works for the Spidey office as the main editor doesn't quit by 1000, then I will. The sheer level of incompetence this storyline has showcased has been disrespectful and horrible to see.

Like, way to ruin a nice idea by Kelly. Like what the hell was this storyline. What a waste of time with no consequence

What was the point of Peter moping for three issues, cheating Shay or treating her horribly, breaking up with her and then getting back together. The only thing managed was to showcase what a joke that relationship is and how horribly Shay is been treated. At least show some character we saw from her in #55.

What was the point of that one-off between Peter and Felicia. It didn't change anything. Only lessened the relationship between them. Why where the rest of the X-Men here besides Juggernaut. This is the second team-up we see with them and Spidey and it means nothing. Why do they need to bring Cyclops and Magik here, if they don't interact with the main character at all. Don't they have trust that this will sell? Who is this for???

I like the idea of Cyttorak being the new casket. But what we have seen from this storyline, rules don't matter at all, so by the next time we see Cyttorak, Randy Robertson can be the new casket because why not.

And when the Fraud mentioned that it was Kelly's idea they started to work on, I got the idea how it went down. Kelly wanted to do a story where he showcased Peter's love for life and how it can affect even immortal gods like Cyttorak and motivate them to do good by seeing the beauty of life. It's a beautiful idea and Kelly does his best here to showcase it. The rest of this arc pretty much ruins it by disastrous editing, since there is no clear vision how to make it last for 12 issues.

And they even didn't get the name right for this. If all other mistakes and choices weren't enough, they can't even name the storyline correctly. 8 DEATHS OF SPIDER-MAN!!! WHERE HE FACES 8 SCIONS OF CYTTORAK. BUT ACTUALLY IT'S ONLY 5. HE ALSO DIES ONLY 5 TIMES. TWO OF THE SCIONS AREN'T EVEN SEEN, JUST KILLED OFF-SCREEN. more

Best horror book out there. Love these origins for the residents of Hyde street. Just a lot of fun.

This is the book everyone needs to be reading. Action and heart in a place I can see earning the name Hell's Kitchen. Just beautiful.

Entertaining issue after issue. I'd like to see more from Ward. Veras does a great job here as well.

At this point it feels like Marvel is throwing everything at the wall just to see what sticks....and not much is. This just feels tired and generic. Ewing had one big hit and the big two starts throwing tons of work his way and he's of course taking it because each assignment pays so little. He's good, so give him less stress and more money to write one or two REALLY good books. Venom unfortunately ain't it. more

While the Absolute line garners critical and fan acclaim, I believe its focus on dark reimaginings of DC's vibrant heroes squanders significant creative talent. The Absolute Batman series succeeds because the character inherently lends itself to darker narratives.

This Absolute Green Lantern iteration is unsuccessful. The characterizations of the main characters feel significantly misaligned. I strongly dislike the blending of Green Lantern mythology with horror. I'm finished with this series.

This should have and could have been really good but for some reason it felt flat. To be honest alot of the art was underwhelming and nothing really was there to drive a fast paced space story. Hopefully this will all be ironed out in a issue or two and I'm hopeful that eventually it will be awesome.....JM

Its just ok, I guess. Nothing really pops out art wise nor it tells an exciting story. As a GL reader I imagen you're bias, but as a first reader... this is nothing special... at all...

Compared to what the other absolute series achieved in their first issue, this is the weakest start of them all. I'll stick around and I hope it will only goes up from here on.

It’s pretty good. The art isn’t really for me and the story didn’t really grab me. But I have a lot of faith in Al Ewing.

i see a lot of people saying how much this reminds them of Immortal hulk and i get it, i mean it does come close to the things we associate with Hulk, but surprisingly i feel like there is a lot of manga influence here, in the drama of it, the tension and just overall the visual language. The building up of anxiety, the fast pace, and the gradation of it, plus the suggestiveness of art and especially the colors, make those moments really really innerving and all-consuming.

It's a comic that is a lot clearer than some of the other titles of the Absolute line, a lot more tried, and it does not feel as fresh in its structure. I praised the fast pace, but at times it comes at a cost of introducing stuff more naturally, so it feels overtly simple this way, which also leads to the suggestiveness of art being too much, too, like when hal does those anime profile pic poses and those are so hard to take seriously. Like this comic is direct for better or worse, so much so that at times it is jarring, and it does not feel earned, at least to me. That being said at the same time, it feels like there is so much story here, and even if we moved fast, we did not see much of what was laid as a foundation, like the foundation was built fast, but we did not get a single answer. So many things are to be explored, and this genuinely excites me. Knowing Ewing, this could evolve in many directions.

As i said, it works really well in those more extreme situations of building up tension, where the extremeness of the situation calls for the extremeness of the art, in those other situations not soo much. more
