meh. too much of the silly stuff for my taste, but not bad enough to really sink it.

not much of a story. its like they finished one issue too soon and had to do something.

so this is what they did.

and.. its over. I could have liked this to continue.

The series as a whole is fun if slightly confusing with all the science thing. Hardly canon, but good exposure for Lang and especially Nadia, and a weird and endearing blue monster from a Microverse alien race.
Great art from Javier Garron.

Nice fill in story, but take into account it’s a fill in. Great art.

Fill in issues are actually terrible, but this is very good as it is a scary story which actually gives depth to Strange while also introducing an intriguing new adversary. Great art.

This was the best issue yet and brings in the mediocre bad guy we’ve been waiting on. A few deaths thrown in and this issue has it all. Brisson is writing a deserving X Force story but Burnett is the weak link in this fun series. I think this story has a lot of potential I can’t wait til the first guest artist gives us the visual impact to match the storytelling.

With this issue ends the first story arc of this series and for me this issue is good, but it could have been better. The action is fantastic and the chemistry between these characters improves more and more. Once again, we have an excellent character connection, this time between Cable and Domino. I like what Brisson is building around the Cable - Rachel relationship and how everything comes together from "Extermination". I think Ahab's death could have more impact. The artwork and colors are ok. The appearance of Stryfe was already expected and makes you want to know what will come next. Solid conclusion. Overall an enjoyed issue. more

Ed Brisson is a great writer and one of the best Marvel has right now.
In this 4 issue run he has created a compelling story which sets up some mysteries, brings back Ahab, puts Rachel Summers on the forefront and brings back the original X Force to take revenge on “Kid Cable” for killing Cable.
However the art by Dylan Burnett is totally at odds with the epic sci fo adventure being told. The gritty cartoonish style is jarring, especially the super pointy faces: everybody looks like the Joker. This is a major problem for the book, which deceives you with some gorgeous Pepe Larraz covers.
Story is interesting, so let’s hope for a change in artists soon. more

Artistically, this issue lacks the wealth of details that define Pichelli's best work. In terms of story, it's very heavy-handed and deflates much of the tension from the much better #2.

Gonna have to get better. Right? Good comic and story but only an average to below average FF4 story.

Wasn't feeling this one. The story being told may have larger implications, but on its own, it's a bit lacking.

The world building is great by Coates but this will read better in one collected volume. It's though to keep track when things are happening in different spots and you forget what happened 30 days ago. Walker and Paitreau are great together although i miss Acuna!!

Things pick up considerably in this issue and next one. The story actually becomes original and provocative, even if it still does not seem to connect to Marvel continuity.
The Klyntar Jndaka connection in this issue is intriguing as is the fight with the Panther spirit. Then next issue establishes how Wakandans have ruled by stealing memory and knowledge.
Bertell and Walker deliver beautifully on the art. more

Still don’t get the point but haven’t lost faith in Cotes after his excellent Captain America run

I'm sorry but... I gave this series 4 issues. The art has always been great, but the story is incredibly light. I am actually shocked anyone can get any entertainment from this issue. It has the story telling of a 3rd person sci-fi shooter like Mass Effect, but only the comments your NPC team mates make during combat. Absolutely and totally atrocious. Good God.

That was probably my harshest review ever, but wow... just wow. more

Interesting and intriguing, but 4 issues in I still don’t see the point.

The best Captain America story since Ed Brubaker.
I was skeptical of Tanehisi Cotes after his Black Panther run, which I found unfocused, full of subplots and a little discursive, but Costss has improved his storytelling and he delivers a compelling and provocative story.
The narration by Steve Rogers is brilliant and delivers the thoughtful, honorable, complicated man he is, while at time questioning all he believes in in. However the story is not discursive or preachy, as it’s the story itself that creates this crisis of faith.
And well, as for the story, it has mystery, the return of old villains, a great supporting cast. Just hoping the jail thing does not goes on too long as jails can get boring.
Also, what age is Sharon is supposed to be, 45, 50? Why is she drawn like a 60 year old? more

I’ve read comics for close to 40 years. Al Ewing has drawn me into a Hulk story unlike any before it. Each issue I expect for my fan boy excitement to be let down but honestly each book gets better, reliving the devastation, betrayal, love and effect Bruce Banner and the Hulk have had over the years. This has quickly become my favorite comic story of all time and just like last month I can’t wait til the next issue. more

HULK IS SMASHING MY BRAIN WITH GOODNESS.

Fantastic. This is a new Golden Age for the Avengers, with Aaron on The Avengers and Zub, Waid and Ewing in No Road Home.
The story is so epic and well told, with new mysteries and revelations coming at every minute. Nyx is a great adversary because actually you can see her point in looking for revenge on the Olympians on having condemned her to eternity in prison.
The book is also great in giving the spotlight to classic Avengers likre Hawkeye, Scarlet Witch, Vision and yes, Hercules, and yes Spectrum, one of the most underrated characters in comic. The use of Wanda and Monica in this specific issue us the best in years. Wanda is a classic and powerful Avenger, who was a team mainstay before Byrne and Bendis turned her into a mentally unstable wreck. She is one of the greatest Avengers.
Great, great book. more

Adding another hero to help fight Nyx. This series has an intriguing villain and her children to keep the powerful team of Avengers on edge. I love how each book is from a different point of view. This entire series has been very interesting to read and I look forward to next week!

No doubt has this series been intriguing from the get-go. That could be a mixture of it being the follow-up to No Surrender (which was awesome) and the fact that I'm a huge fan of Hercules (who is sorta front-and-center in this), or maybe it's just really good. Ewing, Zub and Waid have done a great job giving each character enough time to have a bit of purpose, so even though this is about the downfall of the Olympians, it's also about each and every Avenger featured here. Up until this issue the whole thing has been simply satisfying, but it has been riding a steady pace, and with this issue it really starts to go on full blast. If you haven't checked out No Road Home yet, now is the time to catch up and do just that, because now it appears it may actually end up better than its predecessor. more
