Fire Power #6
END OF STORY ARC
After everything he's been through and all he has sacrificed, Owen is finally reunited with his master, Wei Lun...but the reunion does not go the way you think it will.
Interesting... I don't know that I expected everything to get wrapped up in a tidy fashion, but I also didn't expect a cliffhanger. Anyway, my thoughts on Daniel Way's run overall are that I'm surprised that I actually managed to enjoy it. The earlier stuff was honestly quite good. Obviously the art was distractingly bad throughout the whole series and that really held it back quite a bit. The fin more

Owen and Kellie Johnson's weekly dinner date is ruined! The Dragon's Claw desires Owen's Fire Power, and they won't take no for an answer!
We finally get some more answers with regards to the nanobot things, and honestly...the revelation is pretty cool. The art is still mostly bad, but there were actually a couple really cool shots in this one, particularly of Spider-Man in the rain.

What's your problem? Only posting 1/10 or 10/10 ratings? Some of us use this site to find new comics to read and the ratings/reviews help figure out which ones might be worthwhile, but your dishonest ratings skew the overall scores and make it really difficult to get a true sense of a book's quality. If you're not going to give honest ratings, then get off the site and leave it to the people who take it seriously.
Fire Power #3
Things just keep getting worse for Owen, as it becomes clear that he cannot protect his family from his past. Whether he likes it or not, he's going to have to face who he is, what he's done-and who he's meant to be...before it's too late!

Fire Power #2
Owen Johnson thought he could turn his back on his training, his power, and that dangerous world he never wanted to be a part of. Unfortunately for Owen and his family, the danger has found him, and whether he wants it or not, the FIRE POWER is the only thing that can save them.
Fire Power #1
SERIES PREMIERE! ALL-NEW monthly series created by ROBERT KIRKMAN and CHRIS SAMNEE! The one who wields the fire power is destined to save the world, but Owen Johnson has turned his back on that life. He doesn't want the power-he never did. He only wants to spend time with his family and live his life, but unseen forces are at work to make that impo...
This was okay. The original artist is back, which means the art took a step down. The backstory was helpful to fill in a few gaps in the story and add some context, but otherwise it felt a bit like it stifled the momentum of the previous issues.
Venom #11
PATTERNS PART 1 Certain questions have arisen since Venom's mysterious appearance at the Radar Station in Northern Canada. Like, how did he get there? Where's Eddie Brock? And, what turned this one-time "Lethal Protector" into a bloodthirsty homicidal maniac? The answers to these questions will be revealed with the help of a few guest stars.
I feel like I'm not supposed to be enjoying this run this much, but dangit I simply cannot help it. The writing is actually really good. The story is really interesting. The art stinks, which sucks, but otherwise I am thoroughly enjoying this. Wolverine's several-issue cameo was awesome, and now it looks like we'll get another big hero appearance, which is exciting. Art aside, this is an amazing r more
Venom #10
RUN PART 5 What's the only thing worse than an adrenaline craving killer alien who can attach itself to any living thing on this planet? Answer: an adrenaline craving killer alien attached to Wolverine!
This was a long ass introduction to this series, but it was also really, really good, so I don't think I care. The story was unoriginal (it's basically Avatar the Last Airbender mixed with Iron Fist), but it was well-executed so it managed to avoid feeling stale or tired. Some lovable characters, a few interesting little mysteries, and some absolutely incredible art from Chris Samnee made for a hi more
Fire Power: Prelude OGN
SERIES PREMIERE! ALL-NEW series created by ROBERT KIRKMAN (THE WALKING DEAD, INVINCIBLE, OBLIVION SONG) and Chris Samnee (Daredevil)! Owen Johnson's journey to China to learn about his birth parents eventually leads him to a mysterious Shaolin Temple. The students there study to rediscover the Fire Power, the lost art of throwing fireballs. A power...
I'm so pleasantly surprised by this run. There are some really cool twists in almost every issue, the writing is actually quite good, and the story is gripping and suspenseful. I also LOVE comics that don't hold your hand and give you all the information right away, so these little reveals and layers being added to the mystery are really doing it for me. I've said it a hundred times by now, but if more
Venom #9
RUN PART 4 After blowing up the small Canadian town of Voice and all of Venom's potential hosts, Frankie and Vic are now able to flush out the elusive alien. But what they didn't count on is Wolverine surviving the blast!
This was actually an amazing issue. The scene where the symbiotiote caught the bullet, used its momentum to take down the old guy and possess him, and then spat the bullet out was absolutely sick. Only thing holding this run back is still the artwork. Real shame it's so cartoony. It does a massive disservice to what is an otherwise super entertaining run so far.
Venom #8
RUN PART 3 The Suit's taken down Wolverine, but will he get his chance to fry the real threat?
Poor Nan.
Venom #7
RUN PART 2 Venom has headed out to Canada for an all-he-can-eat buffet. But with three different factions looking to take down the symbiote-clad menace, will Venom be able to get his fill?
