Well, I'm surprised to see the low critic reviews for this issue. I loved it. Great art, great action. I don't think the reveal was supposed to be a surprise, Loki is on the cover afterall.

Not an interesting tie in so far. Despite some voluptuous art. I think I will drop this book at least until civil war is over.

Super cool. Cant imagine how they will wrap it up in one more issue.

Love me a vision centric book

Very cool story.

regret buying it. At least I know what series not to waste my money on in the future. Ill give it 4 for some good art.

Fun, as always. edit: so I just saw the movie, and this comic very much has a similar tone. I wonder if they got to see a pre-screening or something!

Oh comics, I love you

Really enjoyed the new artist and love seeing the wolverines together. Albeit nothing rwally happened this issue.

Old man logan was a bit out of character compared to his main book.

Very cool

Dat cover though. Also! A very cool issue. I wish Yu was doing the interior art too though. But the art was still good, kinda charming-cartoony. Rocket was both hilarious and hardcore this issue.

Super cool story, art is a little stiff.

Fun(ny).

Not sold on the title yet. Was good enough to keep me for at least 1 more though. The end confrontation was pretty cool.

Im enjoyjng this exploration of Evans character.

Pretty pointless issue. Bobby is learning how to be himself, we get the point; did we need a whole issue of him flirting with randos???....uh no

Demons are fun!

The pacing was a little weird, but good moments.

Im taking off .5 for the 30 pages of ads they stacked on and charged us $2 for. Still very much enjoyed the comic. Picking up where Superior Spider-Man left off. Nice.

A spidey storey with heart. The art/colour duo worked better this issue than last. Was great actually.

I am probably one of the few that enjoys the clone storylines but introducing a virus is pretty damn lame!

Ugh the price. Cant, in good conscience, give it a high rating, despite some promising developments and art.

I do like Superior Octopus. But.... After Slott has built this story for the last few years, it really has never paid off, we have this Peter who isn't comfortable in his own skin (or suit) anymore, and what? now the whole payoff of Parker Industries is it's going to be torn down in a tie-in book? At least Superior Spider-man was worth the journey, this is just blerghh..when can we get back to a good story with some emotional weight and investment? ....despite having some fun action scenes. I have no problem with Dan Slott. Just look at the Silver Surfer books, they are heart wrenching right now. When can we get that here, Dan?!

Well, Im looking forward to something new. I wont miss PI

What a nice surprise seeing Smallwood and Bellaire as guest artists this issue. Great one shot.

This was surpsingly good. SPOILERS: .... Funny how they tease Zodiac as maybe the focus of this arc, and then bang crash he's done. lol. I think Dan Slott was kinda paying service to the fans who most all said no one gives a shit about Zodiac. haha I mean I found the original arc entertaining, but certainly didn't need a second arc in as many years.

Get on with it already... Another kinda one-off/set up adventure, that kept referencing things I didnt read from the Annual and Venom inc, that I don't care about, as if they were trying to give relevance to the random plot points. Cool to finally see MJ and Peter trying to work things out, hopefully a sign of things to come, and not just wiped out by the new writer(s). If I had to guess, judging from Dan Slott's basic ambivalence towards the MJ relationship for most of his run, I would hope that Marvel told him to put MJ in to set up things to come in the next arcs. The art was OK, except for MJs face, unless Hawthorne was trying to make it look like she had really bad cosmetic surgery, if in which case total success! Ok, done, my ranty/mean review. ...Oh wait no Im not!.. LMAO off all the speculators buying multiple issues of this and then trying to sell them for $15-20 on ebay, when it still doesnt have the first app of the Goblin/Carnage hybrid. Maybe they should have read it first....smh.

This is my ideal Spider-Man, so happy with this. I find myself hearing spidys dialogue with his 90s tv show voice in my head

Yesssssss. This is the Spider-Man (Family) book I want! Also a $5 book that is actually worth it for once. 2 cute and funny bonus stories at the end.

Fuuuun

Promising. Edit: guess Ill give it 10 to counteract the guy who keeps lowering his score to mess with the average

Ah, so people are going to bomb the user ratings just to be douchebags. I can play that game too.

I hope the show takes these same vibes on

So rad

The story takes off this issue..really satisying issue! Art was good, but not great.

Great idea. Pay what you want. Great writing/art. 10/10

You know, I didn't consciously realize there was no text until after I finished. Now that's good storytelling!

I dont like batman. There I said it. I find the strength of his stories revolve around the supporting cast and villains, they all make him a better character. And this story was kind of the epitome of that. Long live BatCat.

psycho batman is the only batman I like lol (see: White Knight as well). The writing was a little confusing, but that was also clearly the point. Art was amazing and enjoyed the first appearance of Batcock

it was fun. Although he kinda seems a lot like Deadpool right now with the sass, loose morals, and scarred face though. Let's see what they do with him. The split personalities is interesting.

Wow. So good.

Good issue, wish it was longer.

Da fuq

Pretty awesome world building going on here.

sign me up.

oooo Jen Bartel art

I mean, I liked it - was a fun read. But it was just all action. Barely any story or dialogue. Not the best #1 comic for new readers.

Comics at its best.

Damn. Truly showing us the nature of Natasha. Great comic. Always feels too short.

It's like a really awesome 90s action movie.

Well written and drawn but getting bored s of the same ethical discussion over and over again (across the Marvel U, not just this book)

Crazy that even in her own book Carol's character is being thrown under the bus. That said,I enjoy the focus on Alpha Flight. Give them their own book and get them out of this runaway train. Also where is Anka?

This book started out so great and then civil war just destroyed it and her character. Alpha Flight has been great but I wont be continuing with the Mighty Captain Marvel.

So far, so good.

The good: -jaw dropping art -great character line up -I actually don't mind the writing. The issue was actually more direct because we had issue #0 and the FCBD issue. Maybe pacing was an issue if you didn't read either of those The bad: -price

I don't understand why y'all hate it. Art alone makes this issue worth the money.

Very unbelievable motivations. But the art is great. I also like how Bendis features the characters he writes in other books.

OK, I think we've all accepted that the premise of this story is fucking stupid and the character motivations are extremely unbelievable. That said, this issue provided strong emotional interactions between the characters that was somewhat satisfying. And the artwork is mind-blowingly good. I feel safe giving this individual issue a 7.5. Might've even given it an 8 if not for the inflated price.

For once I agree with the haters. Shameless cash grab. I wish Bendis would admit it.

Awesome art

Alpha Flight part was awesome. Didnt care about the rest. But Ill still give it 9 just for Alpha Flight.

At least theres action

Wow Im so happy to say this is actually good. It looks like emma may be playing behind the scenes somehow which is really cool. Maybe Scott isnt the bad guy here aftetall

Very much warming up to the stylistic art which reminds me of the New X-Men run back in the 2000s.

Am I the only one that really enjoyed this event?

Somehow I enjoyed the 0 issue, but not this one. All of the story elements were rather contrived and the art wasn't enough to save it. Nice covers at least.

What, is no one reading this anymore?! Epic issue! Great finale.

I remember feeling slightly disappointed that the last arc wasnt quite as epic as they seemed to be hyping it as with the whole "Rise of the Robots" summer event thing last year...but this current arc, which is undoubtedly the climax, has been non-stop epic.

so cool how this keeps growing.

Great writing

Great exploration of the character

If only the movie were this Strange! Love it.

Possibly the first time Ive yelled out loud while reading a comic.

good set up issue. now sure how it related to uncanny x-men #600 lol

9. Cuz Jeff Lemire. Fuck the shitty ratings this book is getting, it's great. Stop comparing it to past X-men.

Love the discussion between Jean and Logan about fate and choice, one being from the future the other from the past. Alas, not particularly a fan of Ramos. Some good moments though. Sweet action at the end.

Starting to warm to Ramos' art style

I really liked it and the magik story at the end. Ramos art is finally growing on me.

I'm glad readers are finally warming to Lemire/Ramos X-Men. Wish critics would feel the same. It's annoying seeing a critic score of 6.9 on an immensely entertaining issue.

Wow.. Awesome book

Good, but felt like it was missing any real stakes. Kinda knew collosus had to turn back and apocalypse had to go, and we barely knew Sapna, so no great loss?

Strong emotional interactions and the art seemed to get better with each page (or else I warmed to it over the issue).

Lemire doing his best work with these one shots at the end of his run. Sad! :(

Every time this series started to gain momentum, an event shoved it off the tracks....and now it's done. I feel slightly disappointed, because Lemire is my favourite writer. If only he had gotten the series at a different time. Somehow I doubt he will come back to it after this.

Not very intriguing. Also wish it were more mature. Seems like a missed opportunity. Great cover though.

deeper down the rabbit hole! love exploring this world

This issue was a solid 8; just back story/set-up. But the next issues are gonna be b-b-b-bonkers

Very good start

Good..but nothing happened

Giving this 10 just to offset the guy who gave the ridiculous failing grade of 3.0. Seriously? What is your scale based on.

Love me some Starkat

Guardians of the galaxy is really great

This issue was exceptionally good! Action packed and a ton of fun.

Why do I love this book so much and everyone else seems indifferent to it?

I always enjoy my time with Bendis' Guardians...but this book had no plot whatsoever...blablabla who's side should we take mixed in with some Rocket wisdom and jokes.

Civil war 2 blaaa

Wait, why doesn't Rocket like Spider-Man so much as to not want to ever return to earth? Cause he called him a Racoon?

Great art, great action; looking forward to the conclusion.

Great art and style. Fun character. Super weak story that doesn't grab me at all.

Best issue yet.

Great.

First Inhumans book I've ever read. Didn't grab me.

Pleasantly surprised. Huge Secret Wars spoiler...

Very entertaining. Nice cover ;) Gotta love MJ.

Hmmm to add to pull list or drop, that is the question...still undecided at this point. No plot is set up in this issue, it's just a little back story and intro of Tony's role, wish there was more to convince me.

Great art and a strong introduction to the arc, I just find t a bit jarring having such different versions of the character (Power Man and Iron Fist vs this)

Surprisingly good. Better than the first issue. Gives us a hint of what we can expect for the rest of the arc, and great to see Danny getting his mojo back, he was just depressing in the first issue.

The next Saga? probably not, but still REALLY good.

neeeeeed moooore

What you expect for $5 #0 issue.

Great team on this one.

This is the Phoenix Resurrection finale you are looking for. Skip the other one lol. Great writing here. Also an annoying artist change mid book.

Great counter take on the current marvel landscape. Seems JJ is fed up with all the superhero antics and probably hiding her daughter from it. The mysteries make it feel like a real detective book too.

I almost thought he was going to leave it unexplained when Maria says to her "you solved the case" and we still dont know whats going on. But then in Bendis fashion it is casually revealed a few speech bubbles later lol. The resolution was indeed satisfying and the art as always was top notch.

This book is a bit of a mess, clearly an "indie" comic, but it's kind of my guilty pleasure. I love the setting and ideas, and the art reminds me of that from LOW.

One of the best issues I have read....ever

Glad I kept with this.

Hilarious and fantastical, go buy it!

Im on board.

who knew Zdarsky had these kind of writing chops?!

action-packed issue.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaat....tf

great start. hope we see more of these new characters

paranormal investigation team starring my favourite mutant? count me in!

This should be an action movie haha

Wide-eyed the entire issue.

Rawrg

Awesome. Violent, beautiful, emotional.

Holy shit! Really good! The writing is A+, super funny. Art is great too.

Maybe the my favourite issue of any Spider-Man series ever.....only time will tell if I remove the 'maybe'

great art change

I think Quinones is my favourite spider-man artist.

promising. great art. cool cover.

started good, then jarring artist change like 5 pages in, and weak shoe-horned ending. How did she defeat the phoenix? She talked it down saying she needs to be given the chance to live, blablabla. I mean it was still an OK issue, just such a weak resolution. The interaction between Logan and Jean was A+ though.

Great art and covers in this series. Story was just fun. No real emotional connection to Cap's journey.

Love it, but super short, filler issue.

The production quality of this book is outstanding. The ink, the paper, just great. Oh! and the story and art are great too!

Wow. Everyone, buy this book! Jeff Lemire in his prime, both as an artist and writer.

I feel like this is/will be Lemire's best work yet.

WHAT?! Its ending at issue #14?!!! lame! Felt like he was going to continue exploring this story for a long time, and he even admits that in the note on the last page, but says that the story just came to a natural end for him.

Preface: I love Jeff Lemire, he is my favourite writer. Review: This finale fizzled for me. Felt like he kinda phoned it in, and there werent any big revelations. Last issue when he wrote the letter saying that the story just came to a natural conclusion for him, I thought OK and was expecting a really satisfying conclusion. In the letter at the end of this issue, he kinda re-states the same thing but then adds that at one point he had hoped to revisit Royal City for many years, but recently it felt like more restrictive than anything (I forget the exact words, but that was the idea), and this sentiment is what comes through in this issue. I feel like he is just letting it end, rather than this being some well formed conclusion. Still... great series, just hoped for more from the finale.

It seems like we've been having 3 issues of beach showdown now lol Its like Dragon Ball Z style or something. Don't get me wrong, I still love it, but not sure I love the pacing.

Probably the most intense comic I have ever read. To be fair, I'm fairly new to comics. But still gotta give this one a 10!

Still getting the feeling while reading this series that this will be a very important event in the history of Marvel. Very special.

Solid. Still love the art. Great to see all the pairings (Tchalla/Namor, Peter/Miles, Reed/Reed...)

Probably the first of 2 battle issues. Decent.

Wow, hardcore. I am Groot.

Favourite comic. 10.

Awesome. Honestly though, wish it was rated Mature, but I understand the choice for a wider audience I guess.

+.5 for the ridiculously naughty variant cover lol

Beautiful art and great continuation to black hammer. I wouldnt even call it a tie in or a spin off, this book is filling out and furthering the story. Makes me want to go back and read Black Hammer from the start to see if I missed anything.

Love Silk

Great art, dialogue, silks character is still growing.

I don't dislike ford's art,but I hope we see more Stacey Lee in the future.

Silk grew into one of my favourite characters, and I loved how Tana Ford got better and better with each issue. This finale you can tell was probably an idea for an entire arc but since they knew it was ending they crammed into one issue. The villain would've been more impactful if we had more reference for her. But to echo that other user's comment "fuck Marvel for cancelling this book." They better start a new volume within a year.

Most fun in the stands!

Near perfect.

a perfect series.

Still like the event. But i won't be adding this to my pull list thereafter.

Was waiting to see MJ the whole time lol

Myfavourite civil war tie in yet. Like everyone always says Bendis can really write well when he wants to. Now if only the event books were this good....

An average opening issue with great art where not much happens. But I have really high hopes for this series, and I think this is a decent set up issue.

Good, but I need to catch up on the back story. I really like how it focuses on her struggles rather than the plot.

Wowza

This series is too good to be ending! Seriously though Ill read whatever he writes next.

Love

Great art. Cool little story.

MY favourite issue since the first story line.

Amazing but certainly drawing out this arcs climax...

Amazeballs

Really excellent. Art is on point.

Im conflicted with whether or not to continue with this series. Pros: great art, Chewbacca!, Imperials will be coming next issue. Cons: weak supporting cast, mediocre plot, 5 issues is really stretching it for this story so far. Well I'll decide in 2 weeks if my money is better spent on something else...

Strangely weak issue

It took me about 15 issues to start really appreciated Larroca's art, but I really love it now. Or maybe he's just getting better ;) Anyway, series is as strong as ever.

sad to see it go

Wow!

Solid series. Great writing and art.

What did you 3.0 reviewers expect from an adaptation??

Another blast.

I feckin love Star-Kat

I'm a big starkat fan, but this 3 issue second arc offered nothing. A story any of us could have thought up and if anything I'm less excited about the couple's future now that I've seen how boring they can be. I hope the main GoG books builds on the relationship where this one did nothing other than leave them where they already were (albeit not engaged)

Bar-lord forever.

Awesome creative team. Hope they work together again. Too bad it wasn't selling...

Loved it. Great art, great characters. Charming comic.

Very impressive in all aspects.

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

Just re-read this book from issue #1, and what an amazing first arc. Near perfect, imo. Count me in for the next arc. I just hope more people start buying it so it will continue.

shame that this is a one off issue!

What happened to the beauty? :'( 2nd arc seems to have very little to do with the disease at all, which I thought was the driving force of the story. 2nd arc is not living up to the 1st, which I loved so much. IF they have a third arc I hope they forget about this arc and build off the first.

Satisying conclusion. Liked the art more in this issue with the new artist. Couldn't get into the last guys. Still doesn't live up to the first arc though

Masterful.

Dayum, now this is comics at is best.

Jesus. I mean Mammon!

Probably my favourite comic being published right now.

Feels special so far. Tugging the heart strings too, which has been seriously lackong this volume. P.s. I think the 1.5 rating guy had a problem with the Gwen characterisation lol

Was OK.great art. mediocre issue for story. Renew your Vows is the spider-book everyone should be reading.

Best issue yet

My first Thor comic. Loved it.

nice set up for the future. I hope we see more of the future Thunder gods.

so creepy...

Strong start.

love the future thor story

Good, but reveals almost nothing more than last issue.

dope story. dope art. That's my very professional review.

Unfortunate about the artist shift. Completely different styles just didnt work together. Wonder why that had to happen

Hopefully they leave behind the lame civil war drama and get back to work quickly!

Well I thought it was great. But I just hopped on with this issue lol

A return to true x-form.

Love the current state of this book. Getting stronger every issue. A slow burn I can respect.

Im easily satisfied lol

dropping... I mean its not baaaad, but I could be spending my money on so much better comics. Ill just stick with extraordinary and drop the other x-titles.

Pretty cool psylocke issue. Apparently she is powerful enough to [spoilers] cure Mystique's schizophrenia? Ok whatever lol

Dayum

What da fuq did i just read

fun and intriguing.

I mean Ill give it an 8. Lets not get carried away people lol

new story and still amazing. One of my favourite comics...ever? :O

Gonna be a sad day when this series ends.

I almost want to give it a perfect 10, Ill reserve that for the last issue though ;)

Tear.

although confusing, the art and design are killer.

I may be a little bias ;)

The art sure does grow on you in this series

Like the first issue, surprisingly good.

pretty funny

love her

It was good for sure, but I wouldn't go so far as the 9.5 rating it currently has from reviewerss.

found this story scarier than the first arc. Also it was huge, not sure exactly how many pages, but felt like a full arc almost. Well worth $8

+0.5 for that cover

Waiting for a hook and something original...

Ah, finally the strong issue Ive been waiting for. Love having Kitty as the leader, and this issue packed in some emotion and grit. Syaf draws great back muscles haha

Kitty's such a playa lol

boring villains, but loving the melodrama lol.

Good art, fun story.

Still awesome, but this issue will need to be part of the bigger whole. Not a great stand alone or jump on point. It abruptly starts and abruptly ends.

I dig it.

Picked it up to give it a try, but didn't hook me.
