You know, I could stand here spewing the worst insults about Zeb Wells and Marvel and it would all be perfectly fine. But, honestly, I will try to be serious and explain my reasons.
First of all, what's the point of this whole story? Seriously. Rabin is a terrible villain and nobody will remember him in a couple of weeks. Peter doesn't do a thing that changes his character. The F4 and Norman more

Still recovering from the beatings he took from Bane and Flashpoint Batman, the Dark Knight readies himself for a return to Gotham City, and it's Selina Kyle who holds the key.

I mean, there are some very good parts as Thomas vs Damian or Bane killing Alfred. But there's also that thing with the villains looking like a parody and Bruce and Selina always flirting and not doing much else.

"City of Bane" continues! The last of the independent villains are on the run, leaving Gotham City entirely to Bane and his cronies-including Flashpoint Batman and Gotham Girl! Though this means a semblance of peace on the streets, the iron grip of tyranny is squeezing all life out of Gotham. And with Bane's machinations keeping other heroes out, t...

I genuinely cannot fathom the level of awful decisions made for the whole of Zeb Wells' ASM run. This entire series of events can only exist if the characters are written entirely different from how they are characterized. MJ, even after years alone with someone else, would not give up on Peter. Peter may be emotional but he is still a genius, he wouldn't attack his friends and risk his best chanc more

It's happened, in the end. Zeb Wells managed to completely throw me off my favourite superhero's comic book. It's not even right to rate this thing, as misconceived as it is. This is not a story: this is just a rage bait for the fans so they'll talk about it and Marvel gets free promotion. Nothing makes sense, everything just goes the way this pathetic writer chose to because he thinks he's so sma more

I'm still not a fan of villains working together like in the War of Jokes and Riddles. Especially the Joker, that King clearly doesn't understand and can't write. I'm curious about this storyline, but the best parts of the run are a far cry.

He's locked in Arkham Asylum with his worst enemies, and the only way to get out is to fight them all. It's a gladiatorial game of madness and mayhem, all for the amusement of Bane!
