Good start, solid. The dialogues lack a bit of energy, and the plot could quickly spiral out of control, so wait and see. But it's quite promising for a first issue, and the character redesign is a success, respecting the past while bringing a modern vision.

All the flaws of a comic written by someone from TV, looking down on things like continuity, universe building, and so on, thinking they can do better. In the end, it’s a comic that won’t satisfy either fans of the series or fans of comics. It’s this weird hybrid that doesn’t fit into any continuity, and on top of that, it’s poorly paced. It’s a shame—there was potential for the TVA, but this kind of synergy with the MCU is exactly what shouldn’t have been done. more

Not a fan of Alien Covenant, not a fan of Prometheus retcon, There’s less action and fewer twists than in the first chapter, buuuut… despite all these little flaws, Hickman managed to get me interested in this mythology and totally invested in the story. Once again, impressive.Yes, there are certain recurring themes and obsessions with Hickman (the rise of artificial intelligence, humanity’s resilience in the face of the end of all things), but it doesn’t feel repetitive; we’re still surprised. more

For the moment, the Absolute line is 3 out of 3.

A very very good horror story, It reminded me of the best stories from the old EC comics I read when I was younger. It would even deserve to be an episode of a series. From the theme to the rising tension, all the way to the climax, everything works perfectly, which is rare in this kind of format.

Was it the worst Spider-Man arc? Probably not. Gang War was cool and I like Romita. But it will likely remain the one with the most poor choices, mischaracterizations, and gave us Paul—one of the most hated Marvel characters in recent years, which, in a way, is quite an achievement.

I am a huge fan of Power Girl. To me, she's one of the most underutilized characters in the Super-Family (sadly overshadowed by Supergirl). She’s a more mature and assertive version of Supergirl, who also doesn’t take herself too seriously. The series by Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner is a real delight and deserves more recognition. This series, however, is written by an author who doesn’t know Power Girl, doesn’t like her defining traits, and has no interest in writing about Power Girl. So, they create their own character, who just carries the name for clout. It's the kind of mediocre series published without anyone really knowing why. (And besides me, for morbid curiosity, people really read it ?) more

Not always a big fan of Tom King, but this is the first time I really don’t understand where he’s trying to go. It takes way too long to get started, Jenny Spark's character is far too passive, and the Justice League are walking clichés, complete jerks. It feels like I’m reading a Garth Ennis version, but without the humor. That being said, there are still some good ideas (even though the idea of civilians with a mad god in a restaurant feels a lot like a Sandman story).
It's a pity, I love Jenny Spark, one of the best character from The Authority. more

Hey, if Zeb Wells had written this kind of arc from the beginning, he would be considered one of the best Spider-Man writers instead of being hated by the fans. A very solid comic, full of action and strong characters, what more could you ask for?

An instant classic (or maybe just a very good Robin/Damian story who will stand the test of time).Don't understand why it didn't get at least 9 for each issue. And I didn't know about Juni Ba, an artist to follow.

I prefer when Millar write High concept series, like Ambassadors, but it's cool.

Wasn't expecting much since historically I haven't much cared for Thorne's work or X-Force in general, but Betsy & Rachel and Marcus To tempted me to give it a try, and this was fine. More than any other relaunch first issue so far this one feels the most back-to-basics generic superhero action, but then X-Force was hardly the most daring thing done during the Krakoan era. The setup is reasonably clear and the characters are well-defined (except for Tank who kind of just shows up already in costume with no introduction or explanation of who they are?). It wasn't incredible, but it was fine and I'll probably stick with this one for a bit to see where it goes. more

It's ok.Not much originality, it feels like I've read this comic 100 times before, but it's not terrible either. However, overall, this post-Krakoa era really lacks originality.

PKH really need to tighten the plot. This issue could have been written in 3 pages.

It continues to be the best DC comics. The only flaw: the resolution is a bit easy, even contrived. But the writing, the artwork, the optimism, and the energy remain top-notch

You can think whatever you want about him, It's still amazing that at his age and after such a long career, Mark Waid remains one of the greatest comic book writers, with a modern and effective writing style.

It's ok, but it lacks the "wow" factor of the first ultimates.

Maybe better than Dark Knights of steel.

It's been two or three years that this story with these new characters has been dragging on, and for two or three years, no one has cared. Thanos chasing the Infinity Stones is something we've seen a hundred times before and the characters aren't very interesting. Stop trying to make fetch happen.

Boring.

I've never been a fan of Space Ghost. To me, it was a forgettable cartoon with somewhat cheesy heroes.

But... Pepose is one of the best writers of his generation. He has successfully avoided the usual pitfalls for this type of series: trying to completely deconstruct the character, leaning into grimdark, or mocking the original material.

On the contrary, he respects the source material while taking it seriously and embracing its optimistic and childlike aspects.

Once again, I don't have a particular fondness for the original material, but it's clear that when a work is respected, it always yields good results. more
