Good first issue. Normally I would've given it an 8, but I gave it a 10 just because a prick gave it a 1. I'd be willing to bet he didn't actually read it. Fuck you, dude.

Classic material wall to wall.

Right up there with King's Vision series. I want more superhero comics like this.

I think it's weird how many reviewers of this book don't even acknowledge the possibility that the demon might only exist in Dylan's mind. To me, that possibility makes the book scarier.

This shit goes HARD.

I thought things got a little wobbly in the middle of this arc, but here's how you stick a landing. Fantastic damage.

This book is great. In the hands of many writers this story would probably be a convoluted mess, but Lemire makes it flow seamlessly.

Damn. I liked this WAY more than I thought I would. A few more issues like this & I might add it.

Lemire captures Thanos' 0-fucks-given personality perfectly. Corvus was holding shit down too. lol It was great to see Champion and even greater to see him walk in on Eros doing exactly what you imagine Eros would be doing.

I don't think a superhero comic has ever creeped me out as much this one does on a monthly basis. And I mean that in the very best way possible. Masterpiece theatre.

I was pretty close to dropping this before I Am Suicide started, but I'm enjoying this arc immensely. King's finally hitting his stride.

Millar continues his pretty incredible killstreak. This is a really fun series.

I'm a little surprised by how much I like this.

Considering I think both current runs of Suicide Squad and Justice League are trash I didn't expect much from this. I'm really surprised how much I liked it. This could be fun.

It's a beautiful comic. I'm intrigued.

The first issue was good, but kind of hated the second. It was all over the place. Almost dopped it, but glad I didn't. I really liked this. Hope this issue is a sign of things to come. Also, I just want to point out that Deer has grenades hanging from it's antlers and that koala looks like he's not about to start taking shit from anyone.

I've been disappointed by this series since the start, but with that said, this is probably my favorite issue so far. This better be all part of Bruce's plan or Bronze Tiger just got jobbed like a mf. lol The art was delightful. I especially liked the sewer layouts.

This is probably the smartest superhero comic on the shelves right now. The only negative critique I have for this series is so far T'Challa kind of feels like a guest in his own book. There's a lot going on here, but I find it all pretty fascinating.

Coates delivers another solid issue. Loved the Crew banter that turned serious. I knew Storm could control weather, but damn, she can throw shade with the best.

It's been many, many years since I've been this interested in Steve Rogers. Plus, any comic that manages to piss off as many morons as this one has in just 2 issues deserves my kudos.

This and Detective make the whole Rebirth thing worth it to me. Slade is complicated and Priest gets it.

It's growing on me.

This is a really fun read. Lots of action and slick character development.

The good kind of weird. The big payoff commeth.

I understand this is the type of (superhero) comic that's clearly not for everyone. However, it is definitely for me and I love it. This one plucks at the heartstrings a bit with a touching moment between personalities.

A sweet conclusion to another solid arc. I feel like this book is grossly underrated and by grossly I'm not just talking about all the blood and guts ol' crotchety Logan spills on a surprisingly regular basis. It's beautiful raw.

Lemire nicely buttons up another satisfying arc. This comic has a horror-with-heart kind of vibe. That kid did a pretty good Tetsuo.

I just read both 1 & 2 today, really enjoyed it. Hell, that #2 cover alone is worth the price of admission.

I'm not really a Thor kind of guy, but I liked this. Beta Ray Bill is as always a welcomed addition. If this book is a hit can we expect a Toothgnasher spin-off? Christ, I hope so.

It was cute. At first I wasn't a big fan of the Year One stuff, but its been growing on me more with each issue.

I thought this & the first issue were pretty good, but I'm still hesitant about adding it to my pull. I feel like the next issue could make it or break it with me.

So far this series is a little underwhelming, but I see a lot of potential and have faith in King.

For the most part I liked the ending even though I saw it coming. I really wish some of these reviewers would leave their bitch-ass fanboy feelings at the door and just review the comic in front of them.

Well, it's the best solo GOTG title I've read in a while (I haven't read the new Star-Lord yet). I really dug the art.

I didn't hate it at all. A decent one-off.

Not a bad little Psylocke buffer before IVX, but I have to think if Psylocke, or any other telepath she's ever come in contact with, all this time could've helped Mystique with such minimal effort, then telepaths are selfish bastards.

I liked this arc a lot right up until this issue. Meh. This and the Rebirth one-shot were both letdowns far as I'm concerned. I'm weird that way.

I thought it was just ok. I'm gonna give it at least 1 more issue.

It's ok. Maybe it's just me, but so far, it feels kind of like the old lady version of Starlight. The art's pretty. *shrug*

It wasn't the most satisfying conclusion, but it wasn't horrible either.

I could have done without this one-off.

The exposition was exhausting.

If I wanted to read Action Comics, I'd pick up Action Comics. And the description is wrong. That was 51.
