The cover is amazing but it's the best thing about this book. Don't get me wrong, it's not bad at all it's just kinda boring. I would love it if this mini was a segue into a New Warriors series but it's just old Power Man stories retold.

This finale is EPIC!!! If only other IP's were given this same care and attention. No slice of life bs here people, just magnificence on paper.

Does anyone know if that was supposed to be future slaughter's marauders member Mercer standing next to Destro or is that just wishful thinking?

Pretty decent stuff here. I prefer this to the new Zorro series because unlike that series this one isn't a new take on the character, it's just who Dick Tracy has always been. Too many times we get a resurgence of a property and the assigned writer feels they have to reinvent the wheel. Sometimes it works but just as often it simply falls flat. I think this was the best approach for such an old character; the old lore is practically new to most modern fans so why change what worked before. The setup engages the reader and has that Sunday funnies feel with the noir aspect worked in. The art is great for this type of book and I think the series benefits from it greatly. All in all this is a fun read and I look forward to the next issue. more

Ughh. The art change should have been up to the previous issues standards but here it's really just run of the mill. That being said I really enjoyed this book and it basically crawled at a snails pace but I think we needed this issue to really understand some of the new characters (and yes I consider all these familiar faces new because this is a totally different ball game). We are expected to be invested in the book and the people who populate it so we need some deep dives into their characters once in a while. This was as enjoyable as Tarintino dialogue to me. The next issue does need some more action so we don't get bored though. more

One of the few big two books I'm willing to pay $5 for. Aside from Ultimate Spider-Man, this is the best series Marvel is putting out and I'm afraid it won't get the recognition it deserves because everyone is buying shit like Amazing Spider-Man and X-Men instead.

I heard about this issue and HAD to read it and yeah, it's one of King's worst. Damn I miss Greg Rucka. Put simply this is cliche bullshit. The Sovereign is an old man who is incompetent apparently cause he's done NOTHING in this run. Is that what King wants to tell us all, that the patriarchy has no real power beyond what we give it? Dear Lord. Wonder Woman is a stereotypical housewife again. WTF? Same old shit and now it's powerful writing??? It's sad that the most bad ass woman in all of comics is reduced to this trope. Modern day pandering and out of character moments to fit the writers world views just shows that Tom King is nothing more than a hack. A+ art. more

Not much happens here but it's all building to something and for $2.99 I think this is a pretty damn good deal. I like detective stories and this one is just fine for some downtime reading.

I just read the entire series based on the reviews for this issue and I must say this was amazing. You will fall in love with Rose or Elliott...or both if that's how you roll lol. You will cry and cheer and just be happy to be a comic fan after reading this epic conclusion. Truly fantastic.

Star is trash. Foxe has her saying she's not a bad person so many times then has her do bad things. Yeah, super funny Steve. Jess talks about going off the tracks then Star happens to blow up the bridge Jess is looking at...again, super funny (eye roll). Star causes tons of destruction that she didn't care about before as long as she got Jessica Drew then doesn't get her when she has the chance and apologizes to the passengers & leaves, off panel. Jessica breaks up a fight over a fucking turkey sandwich??? WTF is this nonsense? This is the first issue of this series I've read and I'm happy to say it will be the last. more

A fun comic with stellar art. This is right up my alley because I've wanted more deep space/cosmic odyssey books for years. Weird it's a Batman book that gives that to me.

Chapter 2 keeps the action going with a well crafted story and surprising universe continuity cross over with GL and the United Planets quarantine plot. Most writers just ignore and are allowed to ignore those pesky details but not my man Joshua Williamson. Williamson is great but I will say....Lobo's not actually a man of his word lol. Far from it. Other than that I highly enjoyed this issue.

This is a Superman book and Superman event done well.

Spoiler...



Genis-Vell deserved a better death than to be killed by Alyssa Wong's amateur hour ass.

Damn this is good! Perfectly paced with emotional, explosive fight scenes and beautiful art. AND THAT ENDING!!!

Very bloody and dark which is what you want from a GR title but very little substance. I don't care if red hood asked or made a deal for the spirit of vengeance, it doesn't make sense why Mephisto never removed it from Johnny or Danny before now. Writers want it, so now it's a thing and common sense be damned I guess. This issue is not terrible but it's too far removed from the previous run and I still hate the constant start stop to get a sales bump on a new #1 issue...and I hate red hood. more

Another disappointing issue of what if. There was so much that could have been done with a strange/venom character but here we get practically nothing new or exciting. The idea that Strange couldn't handle the symbiote is dumb but necessary for the story, I get that. I just wish the writer had come up with an actual reason behind why the symbiote got through the Doc's defenses so easily. The word supreme doesn't come to mind when I think of this sorcerer. The art is another mark against this book as the faces are fine in one panel and almost grotesque in the next. The panel where Enchantress is laid out for the docs pleasure is an affront to anatomy. Listless writing and midcard art make this book a skip. more

I'm not going to score this book because I just can't get past a few real world facts to get at the meat of what King wants to showcase here and I think that should be what the book should be judged on...yes I'm giving King an out here. The humans don't ever come back and just abandon the building, the animals possess the ability and knowledge to run the camera and set up the funds to order everything they need, they can put up signs with tape, ect. I understand what we are supposed get from this story but the background is just too ludicrous for me to enjoy this anymore. more

So Hawkeye, who has been going without a mask for years at this point and is an avenger, on television, known to practically everyone on earth, especially the rich and powerful, infiltrates a card game as a spy with no disguise and not one person knows who he is???? A simple fake beard and hair dye could have gone a long way here!!! WTF? I expect this from Phillips who is not the best writer but an editor should have said SOMETHING. The symbiote needing Nat to think on her relationship with Clint so it could help him detox was a terrible way to segue into a flashback and of course we have to get a scene where characters are eating so we know it's a modern marvel book. The disguise and flashback reason were just lazy writing but the rest of the book was decent enough I guess, but not as good as the first issue. I heard someone say Stephanie Phillips comics read like AI wrote them and this comic sort of fits that description. I didn't hate this but it really wasn't that good. The only thing I really enjoyed was the ending and the reveal of the main villain. I hope the next issue steps it up. more

This book has some serious balls. I think this is by far the best issue of the series.

Solid ending to a great series. Respect for the golden age heroes is a wonderful thing to see. Too bad about Alan though.

One thing I really love about this series is that it doesn't hold your hand. This world is rife with possibilities and we discover some new tidbits each issue. I would have liked a bit more action but the story progression in this issue is enough to make me want to come back for issue 3.

This issue has one of the best covers with some of the weakest story. It's not bad, it just moves a bit too quickly with a coming to terms cave moment that doesn't hit the way it should. I would have preferred to go straight to the bears scene and got a little more on the back end. I still enjoyed it though.

The description of this issue is right there in the title...Fantastic! North & Gomez really hit it out of the park on this one and the final moments with noir Alicia were so moving I wanted to do a slow clap lol. Great stuff.

This book went from cool to monotonous to just plain bad. When the hell was the last time we saw or even heard about the mother of horrors or the eldest? This book is verrrry close to getting taken off my pull list.

I really wanted to love this but between the bad art and the uninspired dialogue I just can't recommend this comic. I gave the first two books a pass but here is where I have to call a spade a spade. The plot seems to be decent and different enough from the original continuity to pique old school fans interests but it seems that Shalvey isn't as great at writing as plotting. It seems this is destined to be as underwhelming as the masters of the universe comics we've gotten lately. If you want 80's toy properties in comic form then read the energon universe and leave this off your pull list. more

IDK. I love me some new IP's but Chasm is just a re-skinned Spidey and Hallows Eve looks too much like Hobgoblin to really qualify in my book. Feels like Miles and Kamala syndrome. The goblin Queen is....yet another Goblin and I'm really sick and tired of arrested development Peter. This isn't a bad issue and is in fact one of the better issues of late, but I'm just too checked out at this point to really care. Every issue feels like we're on a hamster wheel that needs oil. The art was nice to look at I guess. more

Crossover and something epic vibes abound in this book but don't be fooled, this comic can stand on it's own and it's highly entertaining.

This was a good start and I appreciate them keeping the price low despite the high number of pages. The world-building is great. I felt sorry for Swine since we didn't really get to delve into him too much. The artwork is awesome as well. I agree with everyone's worry that Geoff Johns wont be able to keep up with a monthly schedule, but I guess we will see.

Fantastic debut. Very excited about this title.
