Can they just give JMD the main Amazing title lol

Definitely an interesting first issue, to say the least. This definitely has the potential to get better, but it's a bit early to really tell where this is going. Although, I do trust the creative team of Hickman and Dragotta to deliver goodness. I will say that this, kind of, throws you into the world without explaining a whole lot, but I don't particularly mind that. I just wish that I would have gotten a little more to latch onto, though I do like the alternative history approach. more

Such a great issue. Loved the epilogue. Bruce talking about how no one should go through life with the amount of anger he has is heavy. CBR ranked this as the 23rd greatest single issue of all time idk if I would have it that high but it was great

FIRE ROMITA

I gave .5 because the story is decent, I simply can't enjoy it because my eyes are burning from all the shitty art.

Solid writing from Grant and solid art from Zeck. I have a fondness for seeing Batman not in the Batsuit and stuck in prison or Arkham.

Reading this comic and series overall, I can't bring myself to be even angry anymore. I am just so heavily disappointed by this series. What a waste.

Nothing here feels earned. Once again, we are told everything and we see nothing. Peter says he is not the same when facing Kingpin as he was in #6. I have zero clue how that is the case, I haven't seen anything that would implicate otherwise. One training session in #7 isn't enough to convince me.

We are being told how Fisk is this big bad Kingpin who does bad things. I have zero clues what he has actually done. And how has it impacted anyones life. I guess he is evil?

Everything here feels forced. None of the stuff currently going on is something this series has build enough. And with one issue left, I can't imagine it will be a good or even passable conclusion.

Nothing here is bad. It's just not earned. In any way.

And you know what is worse? I still love #1. It still is one of my favorite issues of Spider-Man ever, but this? This is just a waste. I can't see anyone actually recommending this series as a Spider-Man comic. If you do, please read anything else besides ASM by Zeb Wells.

I hoped this series would explore learning responsibility from adult and how normal people and street-level heroes are being impacted by Maker's world. And seeing a good marriage between MJ and Peter, seeing how they got together despite having wildly different backstory than in 616. But we got none of that. We didn't get really anything. I still don't know what motivates Peter. Was it the death of May? Who knows. He hasn't talked about that or anything. more

Similar feelings here to the last issue, although I do prefer this one overall. I was so ready for another few pages only in Thanagarian, but thank the heavens that the English came back within the same page. I think books should definitely include other languages like this...but, it should be translated into English with the note that it's being translated from another language. Especially considering that Thanagarian, as far as I know, isn't a real language that can be easily translated with a relatively simple internet search. more

A fantastic analysis of good and evil. Moore once again proves just how masterful he is with this issue. Really liked that, in the battle between these two forces, there isn't a clear winner. Furthermore, the two "ideas" almost depend on the other in a strange state of coexistence. What a great run this has been.

Gary Frank the goat Superman artist imo

A great read following the momentous events of the previous issue. Veitch does a really nice job on the interiors, showing again that his style fits well within the tone and setting established over the course of Moore's run on the character. Speaking of Moore, I really liked how he handled both Abigail and Swamp Thing here. Not because I like what's happening to Abigail, but because it feels very real, which is highly unfortunate. As for the titular character, Moore did a fantastic job building to him losing it by the end. Really looking forward to the next issue. more

Hell yeah, dude. This issue absolutely rocked. One of the best of the run. Swamp Thing's rage was built so well in the previous issue and Moore delivered on that build here. His confrontation with the people in the courtroom in Gotham was just outstanding stuff. Also, Batman showing up at the end is sure to make way for a very interesting story in the next issue. Man, I love this book.

Another fantastic read. Totleben does an amazing job throughout this issue, and Moore crafts yet another outstanding story. Batman eventually standing up for Swamp Thing and his cause was great to see. I'm running out of compliments for this run, honestly. I will say, though, that this arc and the previous arc have been the most consistently amazing the run has been.

A great issue coming out of the emotional ending of the previous. That said, this was a well-written depiction of gaslighting and manipulation within abusive relationships. Moore just made Liz's situation so haunting, particularly with the realization of just how much Dennis lied to her to gain control and power over her. Good lord, man.

I could give this a perfect score solely based on the first panel, but, luckily, the rest of the issue was amazing, as well. Moore does an outstanding job of writing Abigail here. Her mourning and her pain can, genuinely, be felt through the pages. I haven't really cried much from reading a comic, but this is one of the few issues that made me tear up a little. Just impeccable work here.

Really, really good follow-up on the tease at the end of the previous issue. Swamp Thing creating the detailed illusion of Abigail and the environment around them, but still not being able to get Abigail's smile quite right, was just great. Moore continues to do an outstanding job with the scripts, and Veitch is still doing really nice work on the interiors.

Waid was born to write Alfred.

This was really good. Loved the art throughout, although I'm having to really try hard to convince my brain I'm not reading a previously unreleased prequel to Fraction and Aja's Hawkeye, cause the way Aja draws Danny is almost exactly like how he drew Clint, bandages and all. But yeah, I really enjoyed this. That female Iron Fist at the beginning was badass, I would love to see more of her. I'm interested to know more about this Randall fellow, why he is alive after all this time, and how he fits into the narrative. more
