Really good. I feel like a lot of this book is on the cusp of greatness, but just falling slightly short of achieving that. Abomination was the main realization of said level, really. There's a lot that I really enjoy here. I especially liked Jim's funeral and Barbara's interaction with the Robins there, as well as the first meeting between Bruce Wayne and Jack Grimm. The latter of those was rathe more

Most I've enjoyed Marvel in some time. Hickman is their best writer by a significant margin. It feels like Spider-man comics are having a bit of a renaissance. The mainline series has massively improved lately and now this. Marvel have been trounced so brutally by the Absolute line, it's nice to see some fight in them.

Frank Castle, Bruce Banner and Peter Parker are all on a mission to keep the Cube out of the wrong hands - including each other's. I...

This should be called absolute black canary. But aside from that, wonderful.

Proof that miserable conservatives are not the demographic for this comic.

i did not really have any connections to Rick Veitch's run because I haven't read it. So when I read this, this was very confusing. I think I am going to hold off on reading this series until I read Rick Veitch's run on Swamp Thing
Swamp Thing 1989 #1
Over three decades since the controversy and cancellation, Rick Veitch's legendary lost issues are completed! After a renowned two year run on the series, Veitch's grand finale to Swamp Thing was cut short, and never to see print! Whispers and leaks hinted at the epic untold saga for years. Now, for the first time, that final story is told! As Swam...
For a full understanding, you'll need to read Alan Moore's Swamp Thing, through to Veitch. If you do that, this book is nothing less than a 10.
i am soooo happy!!!!

Sorry, but this is so much fun. REALLY fun. Hopefully, in the next issue, Prime will be confronted with his sins for real, without anyone interfering.
It's such a fun adventure, and well-drawn. I like that JW is using some long-forgotten secondary characters in this arc, which makes everything even better. For me, the best issue of the arc so far.
