mrDovydas reviewed Infinity Wars #3 Sep 15, 2018
Massive letdown after so many great issues by Duggan. I don't understand Gamora's reasoning at all, as well as everything is getting really confusing. Characters appearing out of nowhere, and Deodato's artwork does not help it at all. I hope the next issue will deliver more answers.

WHO ARE THE INFINITY WARPS?
With Requiem tearing through the Marvel Universe, Loki whispering around its fringes and a new threat looming to devour everything, the very fabric of reality warps around the heroes of Earth... and the only way through winds through infinity itself!

mrDovydas reviewed Sideways #8 Sep 15, 2018
Lots of new stuff was introduced to the book, which was expected considering that everything's in the Dark Multiverse. I am quite excited about it. Too bad Rocafort wasn't on art duties again, but the replacement wasn't too bad either.
When Sideways leads the Seven Soldiers into the Dark Multiverse to find the missing Manhattan Guardian, the whole trip goes sideways (zing!) when our hero gets separated from the group and becomes lost in this nightmarish realm. And just like any petulant teenager, Sideways won't stop and ask for directions, so now he's trapped in the land of Perru...
mrDovydas reviewed Amazing Spider-Man #5 Sep 15, 2018
Great ending to this fantastic arc. Quite gutted that Ottley won't be on the next few issues, but that's the price we pay for the biweekly schedule, and I am ok with that.

• Things look bad for Peter Parker...
• ...but GREAT for Spider-Man!
• The first arc of the epic new run on ASM comes to a climactic finish!
Rated T
Suprisingly, the story about the Flash going Super Saiyan was actually very good.
/54_small.jpg)
The Flash is now the strongest man alive thanks to a jolt from one of the new forces! Turning his jacked-up sights to Trickster, the two duke it out inside Iron Heights for utter supremacy. Will anyone stop these two behemoths from beating the hell out of each other...or is this just what Warden Wolfe wants?
mrDovydas reviewed Fantastic Four #2 Sep 15, 2018
The book continues going strong. There's plenty nods to the classic issues of FF, as well as more recent hits. Can't wait for the next issue.

Great artwork and somewhat interesting story, but the it feels that nothing happens in the issue. Some of the dialogue was outright bad. So far this book is a complete opposite of Bendis' Action Comics, which has been fantastic.
