Not bad. Benjamin is a type of character that annoys me. It also had a lame ending, even though I get what they are trying to do.
I’m saying all of that was never real in the first place. It is not that you will cease to exist, Marcus, it is that you never really existed in the first place. That life was always an illusion. Your dreams were always temporary. Your memories were always an invention. But you know, let’s be honest, that’s how it is for most people, when you...
Probably the best issue so far.
In "Proof of Life", a robot is accused of sentience and put on trial. If it is found to be alive, it will be destroyed. But what proves that you are alive more than not wanting to be destroyed? The brainchild of Mark Russell, Vanishing Point is an anthology series of short stories that are part science fiction and part existential horror, with an e...
Maybe the best UM book so far? I really liked this one and can't wait for more.
MINISERIES PREMIEREJAMES TYNION IV & DANI RESSURECT A HORROR ICON! Jack Griffin has always been invisible to the people around him—at least in his own mind.

After a bit of a break, this issue didn't do any services of getting me hooked back into the world. It was never the most exciting book, but I thought things were picking up before the break. Besides the last page, this book was a little boring. The art is what is propelling my grade.
Faced with an existential plague of biblical proportions, the townspeople of New Hope decide to take matters into their own hands, resulting in a bloody massacre that no one saw coming.
Another really good issue. Its not unique, but does a really good job of telling it's story. It also has some great confrontations.
Neil returns to Albion Flats to seek vengeance against the men who killed his father, and left him scarred. But as he hunts crooked cops, the adrenaline fades and his anxiety mounts as Neil realises he’s in over his head. He’s just a scared kid barely out of his teens. What’s he going to do when he finally gets his hands on these killers? Wha...
I liked this arc and the possibilities of this new character. I'm just confused about Hawk. Maybe I lost knowledge along the way, but why is he hanging around with the DOT. I thought it was known he is a traitor.
END OF STORY ARCFrank is desperate to find the Hat Man in the hopes of saving her friend. But the more people who believe in the Hat Man…the more real he becomes. Which means the Department of Truth needs to stop Frank before she unwittingly spreads a viral Wild Fiction they can’t possibly contain. The fallout of this confrontation will change ...
The art remains the money maker of the series. This issue I didn't feel as great about as other issue. Just a lot of talking.
Case 03: PareidoliaBatman. Three criminals. One gun. One wound. One life. The heart-wrenching finaleof “Pareidolia” is here. Don’t miss it.
I wasn't enthralled with it like some, but it was fun. I had fun with it.
The team behind the critically acclaimed Ice Cream Man comic comes to DCto apply its singular storytelling style to none other than the Man of Steel!Four new Kryptonites have been discovered in deep space, and Supermanneeds to know just what, exactly, they do to him—lest the colorful rocks ofhis home planet fall into evil hands! With Batman at Su...
I'm so glad I didn't give up this book after issue 1. It's become a good read with a lot of character work and emotion. I really feel for the main character.
When Jonathan Reason falls asleep, he becomes...something terrible. With all conventional solutions off the table after a disastrous night, Jon desperately seeks out a supernatural explanation. As the whole town shelters at the church, dark secrets start to emerge among the group.
The art was very muddled at the beginning. I get that the style, but it made it less engaging. I did like the direction the story went. Didn't really see it coming. Not the best. Not the worst. Enjoyed the series overall.
MINISERIES FINALESeth has chased his story to its conclusion. Now the pieces are in place. The players are in position. It’s time to spring the trap and see what gets caught. What bad things would you do, given a choice? The finale of what SCOTT SNYDER (Absolute Batman) calls “a true crime fan’s instant new favorite” delivers its bloody sec...
Typical Miles book.
WHITE CAT AND INARI - ON THE PROWL! INARI and WHITE CAT, two super-thieves with everything to lose, are running wild in Brooklyn - and with SPIDER-MAN still reeling from GOD WAR, the battle against these new foes might be the straw that breaks the camel's back. MISTY KNIGHT's leading the investigation, but she needs an extra hand. Someone with cat ...
A solid issue. It's fun, faithful and the art makes it all work.
Life in the fast lane! Speed enters the Sword Mountain qualifier with one goal—win a million dollars to save Pops’ life. But racing at the pro level means taking on corporate-backed legends, deadly rivals like Snake Oiler, and the shadowy legacy of the CAT Team—the same crew that cost Rex Racer his life. When slick tricks send Speed spinning,...
Highly interested in the revelations of the first two stories. All the back ups were useless to me.
SPIDEY GOES COSMIC! A tale of two Spider-Men...One Spider-Man swings around New York City meting out justice in an unfriendly matter. Another Spider-Man is found in a distant solar system running with strange companions. One such companion? A stranger named SYMBIE making his FIRST APPEARANCE! The next major chapter in Spider-Man's life begins here!
The art really hindered my enjoyment of this one. I thought last issue was great, and the art enhanced that issue. In this one, it took away from the story. It's just shadows and names and people in glasses, and I'm having a hard time figuring out who is who. I still got the idea of the issue and it was fine.
As the Rotten descend on Old Joe's Diner, the patrons must make a fateful decision: whether to stay or try their luck on the road to Las Vegas.
The break up of MJ and Paul would be cooler if I knew she'd get with Peter, but we know that's not happening. I do actually like MJ as venom, but it definitely isn't sustainable. Hopefully Knull returns in an interesting way.
VENOM VS. MARY JANE WATSON! After the events of last issue, MJ's life is upside down… and there's one symbiote to blame! It's the argument of the century as the world's strangest roommates air all their dirty laundry…but when the last word is said, will any relationship be left standing?
It's definitely entertaining, but it doesn't have much depth, which is fine. It's just a book to turn your brain off and enjoy.
Audrey is desperate to make it home to take her son trick-or-treating, but she’ll be lucky to make it out alive when Big Bruce's car lot becomes the battleground for a long-simmering grudge match. The game gets brutally personal as breakout talent CHE GRAYSON (Dark Spaces: Good Deeds) and fan-favorite artist ADAM GORHAM (Hellhunters) join JAMES T...

This was a pretty cool book. Art was fantastic. Nothing extraordinary plot wise, but it was engaging.

Probably my least favorite issue. I still had some fun, but little apprentice is starting to be annoying.
"Change is inevitable. An ending. A new beginning. Everything in between is merely an obstacle. A weed to be plucked out. Stay tuned." -- A mysterious new killer is disrupting the scene by targeting other slashers that they deem irrelevant. Will Riley and HVK be able to stay ahead of the innovation curve and stay off this new killer's radar? Or is ...
It was fine. Decent plot continuation.
MILES' FIRST CONFRONTATION WITH THE MAKER'S COUNCIL! Silver Samurai attacks interloper Miles Morales! Fortunately, a band of mutants calling themselves the X-Men come to his aid! What will Miles make of the dark history of this alternate universe now that he is faced with the reality of what the Maker has done?
Good action. Wild Hulk fight. Pretty good origin for the new Shang Chi.
THE MONK, THE DRAGON AND THE FIST: SHANG-CHI! The Ultimates return to the site of their untimely deaths at the hands of the Hulk and encounter a young boy who has been starting his own insurgency!
A good issue. The book is a little repetitive in its nature. It's still entertaining and fun.
As the ringleader’s twisted carnival spreads its infectious gospel of ego, the city descends into a dreamlike delusion. Winter and Autumn stand alone against a world too entranced to fight back. How do you battle an evil that everyone else welcomes with open arms?
This wasn't too good. Only one of the stories really grabbed me.
EC’S BLOODY NEW ONGOING SERIES TWISTS THE KNIFE AS THE SUMMER OF FEAR CONTINUES!
Welcome back to the Tormentor’s lair . . . where each crank of the rack tightens your shackled limbs and brings even more taut tales of mayhem and murder spilling forth like so much viscera! This month: Full-blooded writers Matt Bors (Toxic Avenger), Evan Dor...
This was a cool backstory issue. Art was fire. I liked this a good bit.
Chapter 9 is all about our samurai as we flashback to her most dangerous day on Earth. Sins will be revealed, and the past will come back to haunt her. Ogata Asami cuts the life out of her opposition...unfortunately for her, these are warriors that will remember her face when they meet again in the war that's exploding in Purgatory. There will be b...
So glad to see anything other than JRJr. The story itself was ok, with a cool ending that has me somewhat intrigued.
THE RESOLUTE SPIDER-MAN! Peter Parker has resolved to get stronger by ANY means necessary. Spider-Man isn't pulling his punches this time.
Let's be for real.. it has some merit. It's just ok, but it's not that good. We need a new writer and new cover artist. That cover is horrendous. The interior art was actually pretty good.
BACK IN RED! After a brief interlude and with Bullseye's blood on the Man Without Fear's hands, the streets of Hell's Kitchen are in even more chaos! ELEKTRA and WILSON FISK are both in the wind - and with nobody else to look to, the people of the city need DAREDEVIL more than ever!
I'm glad we finally have an end in sight. This issue wasn't as corny as some in this series, and it felt like it had some meaning to it.
As UNDISCOVERED COUNTRY rockets to its thrilling conclusion, our intrepid band of explorers finds itself in the heart of Aurora at last—the secret intelligence behind the transformed United States. Aurora has one last plan to execute: it's time for the rest of the world to meet American Exceptionalism...whether it likes it or not!
It keeps getting harder to review this series. It's just the same type of issue every time. Talking while fighting, talking while fighting. I really wish we had more depth.
THE FINAL BATTLE OF THE GOD WAR! MILES MORALES is the last man standing against GOD OF WAR, ARES' onslaught. But the tournament's newest battlefield is now Miles' home turf of Brooklyn! SPIDER-MAN draws a line in the sand. No retreat. No quarter. He knows victory will come at a cost…is Miles willing to pay?!
