I do love big plot developments, but this issue offers only the ILLUSION of big developments.

What actually happens is, Orchis gets 2 new recruits (one shocking, one not), 2 councils meet with little immediate effect, and an in-law spat is folded into a bar fight to meet the issue's action quota.

The storytelling is good, particularly on the visual front, but I find it annoyingly imitative. C.F. Villa's impersonation of Pepe Larraz is genuinely impressive. Gerry Duggan's store-brand Hickman script, less so.

In this case, 7.5/10 = "a good comic that I don't much like."

(I know that the "this is only the illusion of change" criticism also applies to some Hickman comics that I love. What can I say? You get a Michelin chef to make a hotdog, it's probably gonna come out better than one from a convenience store.) more

Can we do these Timeless books once a year for the rest of Marvel's existence please?

Kang is just such an awesome villain and these two timeless books have truly understood why.

If MCU Kang is even half this good we are in for a treat.

This was a fantastic start. MacKay nails the characters here, especially Carol, which is clearly a challenge for a lot of writers. After the mind-numbingly huge Avengers Assemble event, I'm glad this issue takes its time introducing all the characters and giving them their moments. It's so refreshing. On top of that, as someone who reads a lot of Marvel comics, it's nice to see the current status quos of these characters reflected in this book. So often, Aaron's run would ignore what was happening elsewhere in the universe. It's nice to read a top shelf book that embraces the universe it's representing. MacKay is fast becoming one of the best writers Marvel has, and this issue shows he's not even close to slipping.

Great ending to another strong Ultraman Marvel mini. Honestly I feel each series has built on and gotten better than he previous.

I only am really reading comics on the MCU app so rarely review anything as it’s at least three months old by the time I read it. But this, this is a perfect comic- great restrained writing and nuanced art. I just loved it and feel I kind of have to write a review just because sometimes shouting into the void is worth it when you’re shouting about something you love.

This is probably the best comic I've read in a long time.

Nearly flawless ending to this sobering and quiet, almost intimate Iron Man story.

This is Tony... a man given the powers of a God, vs Korvac... a man given the powers of a God. Both are in street clothes. In an empty street in the middle of the night.

Its genius. Ill remember this one for a long time. You must read this series if you've ever been any sort of Iron Man fan. more

batman letting Talia walk away so easily is stupid as hell. Not only it undermines the whole ending of Talia with shadow war and her "understanding" her wrong doings but also undermines batman's justice as well like why Talia won't face time in jail for all of the people she has killed both in leviathan and Shadow war and easily let go. If the problem is that no prison can hold her batman has already constructed a prison in the Batman book that can take care of people like Talia.
Also why would the organization work with Talia?from everything they know she's the daughter of ra's Al ghoul and the leader of the league of assassins and could be lying. It wouldn't be the first time. more

Rainbow Rowell bringing slice-of-life and romance into comics, something I havent seen in a Marvel or DC book since... well probably her excellent RUNAWAYS run and DAN SLOTT'S SHE-HULK. The artwork is great, the tone is soooooo relaxing and charming; this She-Hulk has a soft humanity to it that Rowell is so good at.
Love the radiation conversation. Love what's happening with Jack of Hearts. I really wish we could have all the issues at once though, as I do feel this would read so much better in one sitting as opposed to month-to-month episodic installments.
Rowell is a novelist and while Runaways had enough characters to explore from issue to issue, She-Hulk has a novel structure to it that four issues in we are technically still in ACT 1. It's a structure that's very uncommon for comics.
I also wish, with all the dialogue, character work, and set ups, that she used her panel space more. Like just fill the issue to the brim with dialogue and panels. She's harkening back to old school Marvel, she might as well structure her issues like old school Marvel. more

it's weird to see low scores on this book. I think it's awesome comics. The relationship between Jen and Jack is ofc front center and it's amazing, feels so real, like you really see 2 real people interact, progressively getting to know each other and discovering how much they actually enjoy each others company, even tho they knew each other before, but never had a reason to took things to the next level. You know i can relate to that in pretty much exactly the same way. Yeah, there is no drama and that's cool. Everything about the book is low-key. Firstly She-Hulk is a tamer, balanced and seems a lot more comfortable in both her skins, which again it's a lot more down to Earth compared to the way, she was presented in Byrne's run and big part of Slott's run. That's the thing, there is no needless drama or even action here and i adore how much those 2 are missing, like clearly the book is telling you that's not the aim here. It feels like a book of 20s, when people talk about their issues and vulnerabilities more easily, which also gives the book a lot more mature feel( even the villains are more matured), which is even rare in this type of books. Plus the parallel of the 1 guy hating having his power and the other loving having powers, while both are respectable and understanding to each other's points and experiences is beautiful. I would like to see them becoming more romantically involved tbh and listen generally i liked Cantwell's iron man, but that's right here is what Iron man/Hellcat could have been, 2 characters that haven't interacted much, but discovering how much actually they missed. I love that the book is focused so much on that , it makes the whole thing much more concise. The art also amazing, has that chill and smooth feeling. I'm totally in love with this book, i would love if this becomes a decade defying for Marvel. more

Lol fuck Talia, she was the worst here and she somehow comes out of this event completely unscathed. Destroyed a whole city to appease her greed and insecurity but somehow Geoforce is wrong to avenge the million deaths at her hands.

Geoforce did nothing wrong, what he was doing was justice.

Cute AF and I loved it. Adams’ run so far has been hit after hit and has stylistically been pretty wide ranging. He’s definitely a name to watch.

Silver Age!!!

Adams is doing something very special; glad we're popularizing this kind of storytelling after GLY did some great stuff in the recent Batman/Superman book.

A SPECIAL ISSUE

What a fun , fun issue . Where us the readers can save the Flash , if this issue does not make you smile either you have no sense of fun or you take your comics way too seriously. Absolutely Brillant

This issue was a blast, one of the funnest comics i've this year. I wasn't excited for this run, since Jeremy Adams is a new name (i guess), specially after Williamson's run. But damn, I'm loving every single issue, and this one in particular was excellent in every way

Such a fun issue! Perfect one to get my nephews interested in comics!

Comics like this will always earn ridiculously high praise from me, this one utilises the reader perfectly

Now this was a ton of fun! Great voices for the characters, easy intro to the core conflicts and some nice action.

Man I love Zdarsky on Daredevil and I look forward to the next time I get a month of Marvel Comics Unlimited so I can catch up. His Batman first arc feels just so much less engaging than his Daredevil work though. Heck even his Red Hood run in Urban Legends hit harder than this. This just comes across as a relatively generic action thriller movie and the book is saved by the cool back-ups and the strong art (made great through the colouring). Maybe the next arc will sell me on his Batman run, hope so as I imagine he’s here for years. more

I really wish these two stories weren't coming to an end here. I have loved having a new issue of detective on my pull list every Wednesday when I head to my comic shop for my new books. this story has been consistently great i loved every issue. The ending of detective was good but did feel like it could have been summarized a bit more detailed if we had a few more issues the artwork really stood out to me as I felt it fit the story perfectly. I'd score it 8.5/10. House of Gotham was a phenomenal story that closed with a epic chapter filled with emotion, personal growth, and a devastating ending I'd score it a 10/10. I'm really looking forward to the next storyline but williss this one as it was fantastic more

Tons of fun and I’m excited to see where this goes. I think Geoff Johns taking a break from the main DCU for a little bit has made me appreciate him all the more. Absence and the heart growing finder and all that.

Been reading an issue a day of this on the DCUI app. I’ve liked this series a lot, except the Dreamer intro issue felt too decompressed and this conclusion issue feels a little too fast and the resolution too simple and easy. Still Jay and Jon are cute, Superman is self-sacrificing and heroic and the scene with Lex and Bendis, sorry Bendrix, was good. Plus the art was strong.

I actually really enjoyed this series. It was fun exciting and had a lot of great moments that kinda shook up the status quo as well as had great action. Favorite crisis event

Characters were fun, I loved the art (though can completely understand not liking it) but found the mystery underwhelming. One more draft and this could have been a home run.

Sad but hopeful.
