The art in this issue was a major let down. It was really inconsistent and the characters just looked...weird. The writing was decent, but not as solid as the previous season. Not a terrible issue, but just not leaving a lot to be excited for. the end was a pretty funny, but still felt kind of like filler.

Definitely not as strong as issue #1. The writing lost its edge a bit and the story became decidedly less interesting. A real bummer because the start was promising. Maybe next time?

I don't think it's as bad as everyone seems to be rating it. It's not a great jumping on point for people that haven't played the game, but I think there are some quality, compassionate Lara moments that define the character. I think the next few issues will really make all the difference, as this is no #1 that makes a huge splash. But, knowing how Simone rights, I expect a nice, slow build. Art was not great...very simplistic and I don't think it really captures Lara nearly as well as the game did. Overall, not too bad at all. Worth a shot for fans.

Definitely felt like Batman/Superman's less fortunate younger sibling. I'll still stand by the decent writing and characters, but the art left a lot to be desired in this issue. Judged against previous World's Finest issues, this one was better than some, but not the best.

Mars Attacks freaked me out as a kid. I desperately need to rewatch the movie, because I never expected to feel so sympathetic towards the Martians originally. Good, fun writing and the art is gorgeous. Cannot complain.

Definitely not new reader friendly, but as a long-time fan, this was great. It was a little more serious than the flagship title, but it was great. I am truly loving the art so far and I think the characterizations are spot on. Let's hope it stays that way.

Getting back to the basics and I'm loving it. Art is a little tighter this issue and the writing is pretty solid.

Pretty great overall. Simple and to the point, but also a great set-up for the future of this series.

The season is getting stronger. I enjoyed the direction WIllow's character is taking. And holy cripes, what a twist at the end.

I'm kicking myself for having not followed Deadpool before, because I thoroughly enjoyed what issue #1 had to offer. Sure the jokes fall flat sometimes, but I think that's some of the charm of Deadpool. The writing is quick, the art is sharp, and the plot is really interesting.

Pretty much everything I could hope for in a #1. Soule really captures the voice of Shulkie well. Her attitude is impressive. I wasn't initially a fan of Pulido's art, but it grew on me for the most part (the eyes of the characters are a little creepy). Together, the creative team has something really unique and intriguing going on here.

The plot was sufficiently creepy, true to X-Files form. The writing was suspenseful, but the pacing felt a little bit off. The ending was slightly abrupt, and I'm not sure if the story-line is continuing or not (but I guess that's kind of part of the fun). I miss Walsh's art, but Scott's work was pretty solid, so no real complaints there! All around strong issue.

Daredevil (2014) #1 Mar 19, 2014

No matter the venue, Daredevil is always a fantastic read. The Infinite comics mechanisms really made it easy to hear Matt's voice narrating the book. I felt like the reader is able to put herself in his shoes in a way that's not always possible. Seeing (or radar-sensing) as Daredevil becomes aware of things was really awesome perspective. I can never get enough of (Waid's) Daredevil.
