This might be one of the worst comics I've ever read in quite a bit. It was extremely boring and the dialogue/ exposition was horrendous.

THE SEVEN HEAVENLY CITIES ARE FALLING! As demonic forces march their conquering army across the SEVEN HEAVENLY CITIES the only one who can stand in their way and restore order is IRON FIST!

This might be slightly generous, but I loved this issue. The art was great, the Lemire run type story. I enjoyed it.

Marc Spector: Moon Knight #1
MOON KNIGHT: MISSING! Marc Spector has been many things - an Avenger, a Fist of Khonshu, a Karnak Cowboy and now... KIDNAPPED?! But by whom? And why?! Don't they have any idea they've trapped MOON KNIGHT?!

Didn't provide a great punch for a number 1, but I am intrigued by what this story might turn in to.

The Thing on the Doorstep #1
MINISERIES PREMIERE
Daniel Upton and Edward Derby have been best friends almost their entire lives, right up to the point Daniel shoots Edward dead in the Arkham Sanitorium-a crime Daniel swears he didn't commit, despite all the evidence. What happened on that fateful day in Arkham? What is the truth behind this seemingly mindless act of viol...
This might be my favorite one so far. This had a cool story, even if somewhat predictable.

Terrorbytes #5
An off-world laboratory, built to conduct the most dangerous experiments possible, mysteriously returns to Earth, creating panic.
I really enjoyed this issue. Not a ton happened, but it at least felt meaningful.

W0rldtr33 #18
The W0RLDTR33 gang are some of the most wanted individuals in America-which means Amanda absolutely, under no circumstances, can contact her own children. But Gabriel planned for that. Gabriel planned for everything. And Detective Silk is starting to catch onto that pattern.
I've never read a comic where so little actually happens, but it's so interesting at the same time.

END OF STORY ARC
THE NORTHERNER: DEAD AMERICA, PART 2
The mysterious Northerner can't explain how he's been torn from the Civil War and dropped into the wasteland after the Unknown War-and the last man willing to guide him is Tariq Geiger, the Glowing Man. But as enemies close in, and old ghosts resurface, the Northerner's arrival may b...
The scenes are brutal. Id give it a higher grade if the revenger she was getting felt more sweet. This is the second issue in a row where the person she got revenge on didn't really care.

Devil on My Shoulder #3
She was tortured and abused for forty days by five boys. Two of those boys are now dead at her hand and the next is lined up to get their retribution. But how can Tee get into his fortress home? Or past his monstrous bodyguard? And where is the Fifth Boy? We learn more about the dangerous past of Father Guerrero as Tee's bloody revenge continues. ...
This issue was just another usual for Venom recently. Pretty corny and not very exciting.

Venom #254
WAR IN THE STREETS! Mary Jane Watson is piloting the Venom Symbiote, five hundred pounds of wisecracking alien goo monster. Whitney Frost is piloting the Madame Masque Battlesuit, two tons of A.I.M.-constructed, missile-loaded murder machine. How many beloved New York landmarks will perish in the wake of their fury? Let's count! One... two...
I felt like we were on such a roll with the last few issues that when this one started, I wasn't feeling the ghost cat thing. By time the issue ended, it had me hooked and ready for the next.

Feral #20
Lucky the Tomcat is now king to the Pet City cannibals and no one can touch him thanks to his killer attack dog, Moosh.The indoor cats only have one choice: ESCAPE PET CITY OR DIE! Elsie has a plan but will anyone go with her after everything she's done?Nothing will be the same after this issue. Don't miss out!
A solid issue. I just feel like it didn't have the punch the earlier issues had. Still a fun, entertaining book.

Absolute Batman #16
Part two of our Absolute Batman/Absolute Wonder Woman story- Bruce Wayne is on a desperate hunt to help his friend Waylon, now transformed into a monstrous crocodile roaming the sewers, consumed with a deadly hunger. Batman's last option for a cure is to turn to a god for help...but will he have to descend into the depths of hell to get it?
It was a good issue overall. I really enjoyed the Elvis backup finale. The main story had a good conversational showdown between Black Hat and DOT

The Department of Truth #35
Lee Harvey Oswald has unleashed the Department of Truth's most unhinged agents to bring in Cole Turner by any means necessary. Caged in by nightmares from all sides, Cole chooses the devil he knows. Cole chooses the Star-Faced Man.Also in this issue: superstar creators Scott Snyder and Joshua Hixson conclude their history-making Elvis epic!
It had some wild moments, but the story was pretty basic. It was fun and violent.

Punisher: Red Band #5
Frank Castle's return to the Marvel Universe is cemented at last, as virtuosos of violence BENJAMIN PERCY and JULIUS OHTA's symphony of slaughter reaches its killer crescendo! HOW WAS FRANK PLUCKED FROM WEIRDWORLD?! WHY?! AND WHAT TWISTS AND TURNS ARE YET TO COME IN THIS SENSES-SHATTERING STORY?!
It's fun. It's not going to change the world, but it does it's job of entertaining.

Wrestle Heist #2
In the second issue of WRESTLE HEIST we reach the best part of any heist tale - putting the team together! Our heroes reach out to another wrestler wronged by evil promote Buddy Hansen to rob him blind at the biggest show of the year - but of course, nothing comes easy as obstacles arise! From three-time Eisner nominee Kyle Starks (Sexcastle, Rock ...
There were some really strong parts, but the whole Immortus character was pretty corny for the most part. I think this series would benefit if it was more serious.

Ultimate Endgame #2
THE END HAS ONLY JUST BEGUN! The heroes of the Ultimate Universe - including Spider-Man, America Chavez, Killmonger and Doom - desperately search for a way to stop the Maker. Plus, Iron Lad makes a stunning and heartbreaking discovery that could change the fate of the entire Ultimate Universe forever. Don't miss this pivotal chapter that will leave...
I've never read a book I liked and hated so much at once. The first half was good. I was really enjoying it. Then it just went off the rails. I was confused, and didn't really find it worth my time by the end.

High Strangeness: 2001 #4
Inspired by firsthand paranormal encounters at the liminal edges of human perception, SpectreVision co-founder and real-life experiencer Daniel Noah joins acclaimed writer Cecil Castellucci (Shade the Changing Woman) and rising star Chloé Stawski (Sapphic Pulp) for our fourth incursion into the unifying forces behind startling phenomena-UFOs, haun...
It's an issue that feels like a large portion of this run. It's just ok. It's not bad, but this series has been consumed by scenes of just talking while fighting.

Miles Morales: Spider-Man #42
THE ULTIMATE UNIVERSE COLLIDES WITH THE 616! Sometimes, it takes TWO SPIDER-MEN to do whatever a spider can. But Peter Parker and Miles Morales together might not be enough to overcome what archfoe RABBLE has in store! Don't miss this epic grand finale to the Rabble saga!
The last story, which was a tale about AI on society was pretty cool. The first one was just ok, of that. The second story was similar to the first, but I've noticed that this volume of Cruel Universe has a lot of political type stories. I like it much better when it stays more scifi.

EC Cruel Universe: 2 #7
"Warm flesh! Cold technology! As an astronaut, you have collided both together in an unwieldy alliance to survive the harsh vacuum of space. Now, as you wait to see whether all of your precious airlocks and heat shields will keep you from getting freeze-dried by the very cosmos you yearn to explore, never fear-there's an all-new issue of CRUEL UNIV...
It's pretty good. Maybe I'm missing the punch due to the long delay. I kind of forgot of the gas mask man was really integral in the last issue. Feels like all of a sudden he's doing major things.

Dust To Dust #7
No one is safe as the town of New Hope explodes with revelation and immolation. Can Sarah and Sheriff Meadows hold on until help arrives? Grab a root and growl!
