Do you ever give any other rating than 10? I'm glad you're enjoying your comics, but this doesn't look very discerning.
North completely missed who the Thing/Ben Grimm is.
The Marvel character with the greatest will power of them all (even Cap) is reduced to a babbling cry baby.
He loses his power and instead of dealing with it or using multiple ways of becoming the Thing again, either by rocket, exo-skeleton, etc., he'd rather alter his mind into being a simp (that somehow only Alicia dete more

• After Ben Grimm has suffered a terrible (and very public) defeat at the hands of Doom, he's left lost, adrift - and more vulnerable than he has been in years. And when a trip to New York goes wrong and his fate suddenly turns from bad to worse, Ben has never been more vulnerable - and soon takes a shocking shortcut he wo...
I skipped this comic when it came out, but after the abysmal X-Manhunt I wanted to know what the retcon was all about, so I forced myself to read these two stories, both written and drawn by Alex Paknadel and Diogenes Neves. Forced, because I haven’t come across writing and art that bad very often.
What makes this worse is the laughable retcon itself. I don’t know if leaving Xavier‘s ac more
In the wake of the fall of Krakoa, the X-Men are forever changed. As Jean Grey prepares to take her place among the stars, she and Cyclops share a last night together, only to discover a hidden mystery that threatens to pull them apart. Meanwhile, what was supposed to be a mundane article about Charles Xavier's monstrous acts during the war turns i...
April Fools book or not, there is no reason to give Joanne Starer another job. Wait, was that the joke DC? Ah, I get it now. Still not funny. Very few books deserve a 1 rating but if this garbage doesn't then I don't know what does.

Flash awakes on a secret prison planet somewhere in the galaxy. Upon learning that Dale Arden is the subject of an assassination plot, he's forced to break out and make his way across the galaxy to save her. Along the way, he encounters old friends, new threats, and a greater mystery surrounding WHO is pulling the strings of this universe. The firs...
I’m glad to see that the art improved slightly this issue with Tom Derenick stepping in for Will Conrad. While both are solid artists, I find Derenick’s faces more expressive and his overall style more traditional, which is just a better look for a nostalgic book like Flash Gordon.
"The man in the metal mask: Doctor Zarkov!
The Unraveller destroyed Mongo and Doctor Zarkov's entire world. In a bid to extend his life, he downloaded his consciousness into a metal body. Flash's past meets present meets future in this thrilling conclusion to the first arc of the hit ongoing series!"
More action. I’m starting to like this book. I would love to give this a higher rating, but the art, despite being quite solid and detailed, doesn’t really excite me.
The escape! Flash Gordon, Ming, and Daranek battle their way through Planet Death. Each fallen enemy brings them one step closer to their goal: a ride off this dismal world. The thrilling fourth issue in the hit ongoing series!
This should have been the first issue. Why start with Flash’s rather boring imprisonment, when you can reintroduce him in media’s res, fighting in an arena?
Ming the Merciless has been biding his time in the shadows of Planet Death. With time came power--he now "rules" a certain section of the prison. However, when Flash gives him a chance to seek revenge on the rulers that placed him here, the pair are forced to strike an uneasy alliance in a bid for freedom! Who lives? Who dies? Will Planet Death tak...
Flash Gordon is trapped on Planet Death-a place known for fighting, fear, and eventual demise. He needs to get off-planet to save Dale from assassination, but a gauntlet of guards, creatures, and old acquaintances stands in his way.
The exhilarating second issue of the hit ongoing series!
How to ruin a superhero book in three issues:
Switch to an alternate timeline in issue 2.
Make it all about non-costumed people talking.
Replace the average artist with a really bad one.
It's almost as if Marvel wants this to be as bad as possible.
The power of the INFINITY GAUNTLET has been used and the world has been rewritten. All of reality has been compromised, and this reality will now spread through the rest of the Marvel Universe. You have been warned.
Pure garbage.

i believe in the current X-Men line, but this not it. it seems like it was just moving out of how fast it was paced, of always someone coming or something exploding. it feels like those comics were not supposed to be like that, like they try to make this story fit into their larger stories, but It does not come as naturally, because so many of those titles are so far way from what this crossover wmore

From the UXM bunch, this is the best edition so far. It is very satisfying as an oneshot, and maybe because just that, finally UXM pacing finds a solid footing this time - a problem other issues struggles from, especially after the crossover events. This time, though, the story comes out smooth and seamless (if not for the ever present problem of no subtext - but in this oneshot format, this lack more

Bad writing, worse art. Both Simone and Ayodele have done better on their respective books, but this one reads like a rushed job. None of it makes any sense and there seem to be important scenes and transitions missing. The art doesn’t make any of it clearer either. Actually, it’s so bad, I find it insulting to anyone who still cares about the X-Men. It seems that the X-Men line reaches a new more

I often find that this series lacks atmosphere and personality, but this issue has both. Who wants non-stop action all the time?
This is probably my favorite issue of the series so far.

I quite enjoyed this little tale from Gambit's past. Not being a huge Gambit fan, I don't know if this is the first glimpse into his childhood, but it certainly adds some depth to our Cajun X-Men. The Vig is an interesting character that I hope we'll get to see more of.
Unfortunately the art is very inconsistent. I'm torn between finding it charming in its simplicity or simply not very good. more

yes I do, please check others review to find out. And remember it's an opinion, we all have different. I find really strange that the only problem to you is my rating.
You want me to have MORE problems with your reviews? LOL But seriously, I don't have a problem with it or the fact you enjoy this book. Your tens just stood out to me. I have since noticed that you are capable of rating a comic worse than ten. ;)
I haven't read the FF regularly since the Claremont/Davis run in the late nineties, and the few issues I read since then have all been utter shite (including last issue). I wanted to know what happens to Ben after Doom turned him back into his human form in One World Under Doom #2 though. What can I say? It's utter shite.
At this point, I think Ryan North might be the most incapable writer a more

This could've been so much better. I didn't buy Ben feeling so inadequate right away, I haven't a clue how going to the Puppet Master was going to restore his powers, and Alicia has gone from being a blind, sensitive artist to just another indistinguishable happy-go-lucky cipher. In the early days Alicia could feel The Thing's rock hard exterior and sense his gentleness (and inner strength). This more

I usually don't like alternate versions of established characters, which is why I haven't read any of the other Absolute titles. The preview of Martian Manhunter looked weird AF though, in the best way possible, so I had to read it.
Let's just say, the Javier Rodriguez art and storytelling didn't disappoint. AMM, despite looking very 60s inspired, is a breath of fresh air.

This promises to be an interesting little tale. The combination of post-apocalyptic warriors and weird robots works quite well, although I think Stenbeck‘s drawing style looks better with the weird techno stuff than the human anatomy and faces.

thank you! so many people here falling for the surface level BS that Ryan North wrote without ever seeming to understand Ben himself! He would do anything to not let the FF down but instead he mopes around.
