This was a lot of fun and the art was MUCH better.

I wish the art was better, cause this is a pretty fun comic for the most part.

Black Cat breaking into the Sanctum Sanctorum is a really fun concept for a heist comic. And I'm glad to see Sonny is sticking around, I liked him in issue 1.

Don't know much about Black Cat, just that she's Marvel's Catwoman and an occasional Spider-Man love interest. This was a decent first issue. A few genuinely funny moments. Thr art was oddly inconsistent, going from really great to really rough panel to panel. The writing was fine and the story was fine too. Also, I rarely ever comment on it, but I wasn't a huge fan of the lettering. The font choi ce was weird and my eyes didn’t really like reading it. Just use the standard comic font! If it ain't broke, y'know?more

Not a bad story, just not the amazing one I expected from these two creators. Not a very deep tale. Didn't really make me feel anything...it was just sorta Wolverine killing people cause that's what he does best. But that's not all he is, and I would've liked for Hickman to show that he understands a little bit more about what makes the character so compelling beyond his ability to stabby-stab and snikty-slice people up real good.more

Cool fight, great art, story is still pretty shallow.

I loathe the thought of giving a book written by Jonathan Hickman and illustrated by Greg Capullo a score lower than a 10, cause that's what this series SHOULD be...but it isn't, and I can't in good conscience rate it any higher. It's not terribly written, and the art is obviously phenomenal, but there's just no substance to this story. No depth. No apparent direction either. What's the point? Wha t's the message? It's just a basic revenge story, and not even that compelling of one. And now Logan has had his revenge, but we've still got two issues left? What is going on...? This just doesn't seem like the same Jonathan Hickman who was the mastermind behind arguably the greatest era in X-Men comics history, not to mention incredible, all-time great runs on Fantastic Four and the Avengers. I just had such higher hopes for this mini. These two creators have proven that they're capable of so much more.more

Again, it's not bad, it's just not the Hickman we're used to. Too many time jumps...no real depth to the story or the characters, even Wolverine. It feels very surface-level. The plot isn't overly interesting. I just feel like it isn't living up to its potential fully.

This wasn't classic Jonathan Hickman. I don't know what it was, but the writing style really didn't seem like him. It seemed more like something Mark Millar or someone would write. That's not to say it was badly written, it was just very different from what Hickman usually does. It was faster paced, less complex, the dialogue was a little cheesier... On its own merit, it was a decent issue. I gues s I just expected more from one of my favourite writers. Greg Capullo's art was gorgeous and it's great to see him back at Marvel. The story has a fairly basic premise and wasn't overly original. Hopefully it gets better, but for what it was, it was pretty good.more

This was an okay ending. Doom's plan seemed a little overcomplicated and underexplained, and Reed's counter-plan seemed equally so. But I still really liked the character work throughout this short mini and the art was absolutely outstanding.

Man, Morrison writes Doom so incredibly well. He's got a great voice for him.

I really loved this. Sue and Alicia's dinner conversation was captivating despite it being just talking. I loved how Morrison really dove into Reed and Sue's relationship and showed how one of the ways that Reed loves his wife is by allowing his passion for her to motivate his brilliant mind and infusing his love for her into his creations. The characterization was on point for Ben and Johnny too. Exceptional writing, incredible art.more

This was very Grant Morrison. Weird, but undeniably compelling. The art was incredible too. Jae Lee turns whatever he touches to comic gold.

I hope the literal best character in this series isn't actually dead, cause if so...I riot.

This mini was everything I love about Daredevil. Doing whatever it takes to help even just one person, no matter the cost to himself. Staring evil in the face and refusing to stoop to its level or surrender to it. Helping others to see the light even while he himself struggles to see it. It was, in a word, perfect.

Also, the moment where Bullseye spat the tooth had my jaw on the floor. So freaking cool. Charles Soule...thank you for this. Big props to Steve McNiven too who brought it to life with his exceptional artwork.more
