Bleemak reviewed Amazing Spider-Man Annual #1 Sep 19, 2018
The idea of prequels is to bring something new to the table, while keeping the story familiar. This does that.
It focuses how much Venom actually cared for Spider-Man, what it thought and why it did what it did. And why it started to hate Spidey so much.
Great writing and flashback-ish artwork.

TIES THAT BIND!
Years ago, Spider-Man came back from an alien world with a fantastic new costume - one he eventually learned was a living alien symbiote looking to bond with him permanently! But before he rejected the costume that went on to become VENOM, many a night the symbiote would creep onto Peter, and unbeknownst to its host, ...

Artwork is great, story arc is pretty okay. Turk makes this much more interesting and their team-up could be something great.
I actually don't know what happens next, Gamora with Infinity Stones and Loki whispering in her ear.

Bleemak reviewed Batman #53 Aug 16, 2018
This was an interesting story arc. Good, but it came out of a bad 50th issue. So that is my one of my issues. The other one being that that the killing of those 3 women is not yet resolved. i hope it will be.
Still, comparing Batman to God was interesting and it shows how Bruce has lost his faith in Batman. In himself. Artwork was very good to this arc. It wouldn't normally work, but in more

Bleemak reviewed Infinity Wars #1 Aug 2, 2018
This is a good issue because we have Turk, Bullseye, Guardians and Thanos in the same setting with infinity stones. I'm very glad that this isn't just a sequel to Infinity Gauntlet or a comic version of Avengers: Infinity War.
Gamora's actions could use a bit more of exploring, but otherwise a very enjoyable read. Not great, nor awesome, but good enough.

It's a crazy idea. But an awesome one.
The Rider is out to change the universe for the better, starting with an idea so simple he cannot believe no one has ever done it before! But as with all things worth doing, it's not going to be easy. For one thing: SPACE SHARKS. For another? Let's just say it's never good to run into Galactus during a bar fight.

I don't know how Spencer does this. Spidey is back again as a jobless student, but Spencer makes it interesting and feeling fresh. This isn't perfect comic, but very enjoyable one and sometimes, that is all you need. Awesome artwork by Ottley doesn't make it any worse though.
