What a waste. Disappointing in every aspect.

Man what a waste of time and money. Let's oversize this kick off issue and spend half of it on a unnecessary fight and the rest on a horrible idea for Ghost rider who could kill the Doom Above all last issue by himself only to stop him and then depower him because Aaron can't write a proper script ending to his crap saga. This close to the end after 5 years I have to finish and I will never ever read another Jason Aaron book when these Avengers books are done in a few months.

This was not good. Yes it looks good concept wise with amazing art but it is not a good issue ending what was a very disappointing series. I get that Scott Free is stuck in his horrible reality and isn't able to escape so he commits suicide and moves to this Purgatory/Hell/Paradise depending on how this concept is viewed by the different characters. I can understand how King thinks he is making his character come to terms with his broken life and gets passed things but others will not interpret it this way. This is a very problematic view of things and I'm not sure why writers are continuously glamorizing suicide as a way out of any problems. He's happy to stay in his made up alternative reality by killing himself and creating a fantasy because he truly couldn't escape his reality....this is a dangerous message. Rick Rememder did the same thing with Black Science in his finale and that was a disaster of an ending. And don't even get me started on the gods concept who are flawed to the level that they're merely humans masquerading around with horrible and damaged lives. That wasn't even his message but that should have been. I was a bit down on King after reading The Human Target but after Mr. Miracle, I think his best book is the Human Target. His problem is that the series' concepts do not need 12 issues to resolve so we drag and drag endlessly what could have a been a great focused 6 to 8 issues. But honestly if I knew what this series was about I would have never read it or spent money on it. Now I just don't want to pick up Strange Adventures because I imagine the drag somewhere in the middle will annoy the hell out me and the ending will not match the early hype.

I really tried but man is this a stinker. Soule didn't deliver his answers. Well he did but it was a failure at delivering them and just plain stupid. This whole thing wasn't well written, planned or delivered any positive direction for the character. Waste of money and time. Shalvey isn't the right artist for this book either.

This is so bad. There is no passion and I feel nothing for these characters. It feels like it's fan made in a really bad way. Henry Abrams has no business doing this. Take a few indie gigs and work on your craft for a few years before you come back. C.B. man come one this script is so bad......what was teh first draft like?? Sara Pichelli and Dave Stewart's time and art are wasted here big time. Just can't get myself to drop it now with one issue left. I just have to finish now and see how bad it can get.

This final issue cannot fix any of the problems with this story and the Writers. First of all Sara Pichelli/Stewart/Coipel were outstanding and they were wasted here and deserve nothing but praise. The Abrams JJ and H and Nick lowe as the editor can take all of the blame here. You cannot fix the script/dialogue and the other problems with 4 issues in 10 pages at the end and try to get completely unearned emotions from me to try to make it what it wasn't. What a waste!

This was just bad all around the writing and the art. At least it;s done now and we can move on from this 2099 mess.

Nothing is here interesting enough to warrant this book 92.bey existing. A waste of $5.

What a waste. There is no end to this cycle rinse and repeat. Dodsons were poor on art and gave a very rushed job. What a waste of time and money.

2 steps forward and 3 steps back. I have to move to trades because reading this in singles for 20 some issues to find out what happened is agony. But even then I doubt it will improve it. Avoid it if you must but escape it? You can't. I'll wait for the arc conclusion to make a full judgement. I have to say the FF parts were good and Romita Jr. is as he's been so far so it's good/quirky in his usual style. Wells style here is playing with fire. But I'm starting to believe that no writer can even fix ASM and will crumble under the 60 year history and continuity. I hope I'm proven wrong in the future. I wish Spider-Man will get his Immortal Hulk 50 to 100 issues era to bring back order and move Peter Parker forward but as the powers in control at Marvel have said: Peter Parker can never grow up because he has to be sold to new readers over and over again and older readers just have to accept it or exit.

It's a very lackluster story where all the beats are recycled from the time gap where the hero can't save the heroine and grew apart and blah blah and then add a very mediocre villain acting like a 50s idea of what a cliched bad guy would be. There is nothing here that inspires or infuses a hint of suspense of hope in building proper characters. A year wasted on the dumbest premise. Zeb Wells and the editors dropped the ball just like on Spencer's run. I don't have hope for ASM ever recovering and this title will continue to sell and top the charts riding on the 60 year old history of cool Thwips and slogans "With great power..." that are both celebrated yet are the main hinderance to its advancement. I will finish the arc then it's sayonara and I'm moving to trades because at least then I will have full arcs to pick and choose from.

I will never buy or read another Jason Aaron comic. After investing 6 years into this we have a weightless run that promised so much and yet never delivered what it thought it was delivering. I tried and gave it every chance to matter but it will never capture what it did in those early 10 issues or the 50th issue which were the high points that sucked me in and strung me along. Aaron mistakes big spectacle and multiverse explosions with amalgamized characters as substance worth following but the many throw away stories, throw away characters and fake outs stood on shaky ground of a story that really had no real substances or characters worth investing in especially in the last 25 issues of Avengers and Avengers Forever. The only bright spots came from the artists such as Kuder and Garron who did awesome work and made these ideas shine but only superficially.

Stuff happens.

This is just meaningless for me and I don't care anybody in this book or what or why they're doing what they're doing. I tried really hard to like it but alas it's not setup well with good characters or good backstories. I even had a discussion with one of the guys running my local shop and he said he loved god country but bailed on this book three issue in because of similar reasons. I went on to read X-men by Hickman after this and immediately was struck by how well Hickman has setup his book. Maybe not fair since I care for Laura and the X-men because of previous work but the flow and script for that issue alone is better than 5 issues of Crossover. Also it took 9 minutes to read this issue so that's another point against it...

Just when you think Mark Waid is not as good as he used to be, along comes another Dr. Strange book written so bad that makes you appreciate what Waid did the last year and half. And the art did not do this book any favors. Waste of 5 dollars. The cover is the only redeeming thing here!

This is not good on the script/writing side but good on the art side from Sandoval and company. Was the mandate from editorial to go real heavy on making this book a bad copy of the MCU GOG? because success: We have a really bad copy of James Gunn's movies. Drax especially was butchered here. All of Al Ewing's improvements especially with Quill are gone. I love the movies and I love the GOG as they are in the comics and they should not be twin copies of each other. Some threads and links can be copied but not like this. Skip a 100%. Marvel comics just don't know what to do with these characters.

After talking with the people at the Local shop and how many are disappointed with it, I heard from them some dropped it way back and others read it but are not happy. Again I had to wait 5 days to read this book because I just can't do it right now and as expected it was a disappointment. The story progression is at a snails pace and it's just another ASM issue or a tie-in for me. Nothing special and the fact that they had to bring in Brisson as help to write this is just weird. But what's worse is having 4 pencillers and 5 inkers in 1 book is a nightmare for me to read. Anything the story Spencer is trying to convey just goes out the window as soon as the art changes drastically. None of these guys complement each other. I know I keep saying the same thing over and over again but ASM is the last book I'll drop and it hurts me to see it like this.

This lacked any value story wise compared to the previous years 2 issues which were much better in all aspects. The only value here is the great art from Juan Cabal. Jed Mackay had a proper story in both previous outings. This was a waste of time by Kelly and Lanzing. I have no faith in Marvel 2024 comics based on this nonsense.

The art killed this one. Garry Brown needs to work on his craft because it is not up to the standard. Marvel comics and editors are to blame for allowing this to be on a top book. Garry brown is a free lancer who got paid and didn't twist arms but was hired by Marvel comics. We can be mad at him but that's misdirected. Percy's narrative wasn't much better to be honest so the quicker I forget this crap the better it will be.

It's not bad and is fine for a finish to an average arc that's there to invoke feelings of sadness, loss and quite possibly anger. Also the art is good from Romita Jr. Hanna on inks and colors by Menyz. The problem is the story itself. First, the antagonist is one of the worst things about this. He and I don't care to remember his name is just as bad as the time-jump-gap and other previously overplayed ruses. Also Paul is a very average character. I just do not care about his story because relating him to the antagonist just does nothing to build any sort of background when the bad guy is a dumb idea. Second, you sprinkle Kamala Khan for a few panels in 25 issues with no build up or explanation then do an info dump for a few pages and expect readers to care about her death in an ASM book? I care about Kamala and was there from 2014 when G Willopw Wilson and Alphona knocked it out of the park for years. So I'm expected to not be pissed off that you just kill her here like that. Yes Wells does enough to make it work but man does it leave a bad taste in your mouth. I'm off singles for this book for the first time in a decade and will follow TPB if they are good. These editors and Wells think they got a golden goose but they have no idea what they're doing and just might strangle it in the process. But don't worry it'll still sell for a while because 60 years of Nostalgia is a hard thing to destroy.

why am I still reading this? FOMO I guess.

Still here just because why stop now with less than 10 issues to go after 4 years. Fiorelli as an artist is good and has a lot of potential.

Things are happening and I just don't care for this at all. No idea where anybody is coming from or going. Aaron has dropped the ball here and that fight between Doom above all and Ghost rider ended in a really stupid manner. Towe James's art is not good enough and he needs to work on his faces and figures.

The fight years in the making and I just don't care even as these characters are re-showing up in splash fashion. Aaron Kuder is the only reason to get this because it makes all the noise happening worth looking at.

Disappointing and just generic and bland. This reads as if Gerry Duggan gave up and went home early so he is recapping the event for me. What a waste of time. How is Jordan D. White letting this ship?? Art is passable and a waste of time and money. Shame because this is making sure I never pick up another X book after the Krakoa era ends. At least I have Al Ewing/Vecchio and Gillen/Silva giving a 120% to finish this thing PROPER!!

Useless King in black tie in. Slott tries to advance his story's narrative a bit but feels completely useless and waste of time.

This was OK and passable but felt completely out of place and just another way to get $5 from ASM readers. If I knew it had almost nothing to do with the main story I would have skipped it. The art was also passable and nothing to write home about. Waste of time at the end because these threads serve nothing for this story and the editor tells us so on the last page. Stupid.

We are trying to set up the phoenix event and have the prehistoric Avengers have meaning but at this point I'm almost done with this series. We are dragging this to death and if only this issue delivered more than a cliched story, I would be more forgiving. The only reason I'm still here is because this is supposed to be an integral series to Marvel plans for 2021 and Mephisto's part of it but 39 issues later it's ridiculous what Aaron+Editors are doing here.

Aaron just tries too hard to explore his unresolved religious issues but this is not the place to do it. The story starts somewhere interesting and ends up where he needs it to be and not necessarily following his logic. It takes away from the previous setup up. I hope Aaron can get some clearance someday and sort out his beliefs because every book I read from him you can clearly see he is struggling and is trying to fit things together but Avengers should not suffer for it.

What if ramblings continue. This is not an Avengers book. The art is the only saving grace here. Garron and Curiel are the only positives. Can't leave out of sheer commitment and It's almost over but man is Aaron not good at developing and writing the issues between his good concept ones like 710 and 750. Too much garbage in between.

The disappointment here is just...I should be used to it by now. On paper this should work but the weight of the story after 4 years is too much on Aaron who delivers a sub par script with stupid lines and all too predictable stuff. Javier Garron works his butt off here on art and is wasted.

The weakest issue so far and you can't pay me to read a batman book right now. The art is also not my favorite style so we can only go up from here.

While some characters act in character and others aren't and I can't get what King is really doing. It always looks cleverly straight forward with a hammer falling and falling that never arrives for 10 issues and man is that a heavy drag. It only works if you care for the characters and I couldn't care less about these mythological characters thinking they are Gods while being as human as it gets. The concept of Gods going through mundane lives is flawed and it just doesn't work. After 10 issues I just don't care for the resolution but still with 2 to go you have to finish.

At this point just end it because something has to save this series next issue. It can't be this simple. I get the emotional points and call backs and characters coming together to stand up to their tormentors but it's way too flat and simple even with that ending. Again I have to reiterate that the whole Gods concept anywhere is dumb and I mean how can Gods die and we have had many die and go to the bathroom along the way. The concept is flawed to begin with and none are truly powerful so there is always an out and that's why Darkseid can be easily defeated. As Odin said " We are not gods. We are born, we live, we die. Just as humans do." I just can't get past that even as a mechanism for storytelling. It just doesn't work.

Sigh! If this is how you bring back Logan, then obviously they don't know what to do with him anymore. Soule and the editors failed with this one. Not even McNiven's beautiful art can save it. 6 is for McNiven's art and that's it and that hurts.

At this point I just want this to end since all the problems I mentioned before are only getting worse: The bad inconsistent script, bad dialogue and the horrible art management. On top of that the OMD teasing seems like bait and switch as usual. I never ever felt like this reading ASM and it is disappointing.

This wasn't good. Stegman did a much better job with ASM RYV years ago and nailed the spidey family. Here it was lacking and the horror parts were just too drawn out and lack of words didn't have the intended effect. Sorry but spending 5 dollars on 10 minutes of reading isn't a good investment and then it being less than satisfactory??? Well it sucks. The art was good by Hotz and Gedeon. Too many inkers and colorists to mention but they all worked well together!

The execution of this story is not any better. I can't wait for this poorly executed 2099 nonsense to end. Art was OK.

The weakest in narrative and art. I get what they're hinting at but we're stretching this sucker to death. Not necessary as this can be done in 2-4 extra pages in regular ASM. The art change mid book took me out of it too so that's unfortunate.

Again the convoluted story telling that actually doesn't accomplish much for how much it goes on an on gets the better of this story. Again 3 different teams doing the art just kills the flow for me and I couldn't enjoy it because the art changes drastically every 2-3 pages. This feels like running out the clock to what's next. A waste of time and money.

There it is. A bit too much plot twisting for something you can see coming 20 issues ago and the journey was not enjoyable either. Also the whole Kraven/Son Clones nonsense that Spencer did was the dumbest thing next to the Kindred reveal. ASM is being weighed down by too many dumb decisions like how many times will Flecia and MJ date and break up with Peter. This endless cycle is not for old readers. At least I have Hickman doing some inetersting things over at Ultimate ASM. Gleason's art is great as always!

Same old story that's uninteresting but few good moments to keep going.

Gang war didn't start well and it didn't end well. Spider-Man/Peter Parker feels like a B-level character in his own book whereas the Mafia camps upstage him with more dynamics and development especially Tombstone. Tombstone's first arc was the best this run has done but that feels like years ago especially when Wells started with the Peter/MJ mystery that took forever to answer only to disappoint then MJ is kicked to the curb then we circle around till we get to Gang War only to fall flat yet again. I'm just ready for the next creative team. Positive is John Romita Jr. delivered good art and kudos to Hanna on inks who made his art tight and Menyz on colors is classic.

It was OK. Did not grip me at all and the reveal at the end fell flat for me. Pass.

A bit of a let down compared to the other origins. This book is dragging right now. The momentum is gone. I hope Aaron gets back to telling the story he teased. Too many fillers right now.

Just waiting for the end and something better. The art is nice.

This is was ok at best. I get what JASON Aaron is trying to do with Moon Knight but did we really need all of these issues to do it. This series is keeping me around just because of what was promised back almost 2 years ago for the JLA knock off with the squadron supreme. But holly cow is this taking forever. I didn't care about the war of the realms or the ghost rider stuff and this Khonshu nonsense takes the cake for dragging out stories that get us nowhere. Javier Garron is great in the art but this book is a shamble of what it promised to be.

I this point I'm glad it's over. Garron and Keith delivered on the art department but Aaron's stuff was a mix of some good ideas and other stupid ones just dragged over many issues and some overturned in one panel for almost no reason. It is what it is at this point. I'm not optimistic about the phoenix stuff but 37 issues in what am I supposed to do.....quit?? lol

Finally done with book and It was a waste of time for many arcs now. Spinning wheels on nonsense. I'm off this dumb ride. Javier Garron is wasted here. He needs better writers.

Going downhill fast. Thor fights Echo/Phoenix for how many issues then in 2 panels does 180. Just one example of so many threads trying to be made into a story by Aaron but it's not cohesive enough following what was built so far. Frigeri is OK but not a strong as he was at the beginning.

We're traversing the multiverse forever looking at what if stories that we hope make sense but how long can this go on? It get tedious and boring after a while and needs to make a landing with some purpose sooner or it's back to the desert that was issues 20 through 47. And with deserts come mirages which is what this Avengers series has been: a desert full of interesting mirages that keep escaping me as soon as I think I get to them. Same thing is happening with Avengers Forever. Jason Aaron can't go on like this until issue 100?

A stitched job that can't keep up with the previous chapters. I just don't care for the Thor nonsense and Aaron Kuder's art is missed.

Jason Aaron is taking his time to introduce characters but the connection is just not there to the A-team. Aaron Kuder is killing it on art though and he is the only bright spot in this book along with Guru-eFX.

The only reason this is not a 5 is the outstanding art from Aaron Kuder who delivered wonderfully detailed illustrated multiverse art and shenanigans that I wish I cared about but that is on Jason Aaron. Kuder's art is just straight fire! Kudos to him and Frank Martin on colors.

This story was not satisfactory for the build up it had. We could have solved this way back and didn't drag it like this. Why not do this early on over an arc? Oh no we gotta have Thor be mad with the Phoenix for a while just for the heck of it to stretch this nonsense. The Avengers series is really a jumbled mess over 4 years with a few very good singles thrown in to keep idiots like me coming back. Jason Aaron didn't do a good job here at all. Plus his stories are way too much of a therapy session for his own internal monologue. I hope he figures it out for his own sake. Walker's art is good but Dean White's colors experiment in some pages didn't work for me. I know he tried to give it a certain old look but maybe next time. Dean White is a pro and still had some good pages.

Beautiful art from Carlos Magno could not save this event. The fact that you had to have a page of Bucky Cap-Splaining to Steve what happened in this run says it all.

The series is all over the place and it's not holding my interest unlike the Spencer/Acuna series from years ago. The art is very good and is not a problem even with the switcheroo in artists. Might have to drop this.

This gets a 2 for the story by Duggan but is saved by Smallwood's art. What a waste of time except for the art that stops me from throwing it away.

Judgement day intro was weak and not enough to give me hope for the event but Gillen has credit in the bank so I'll check it out. OK we gotta stop the Moira nonsense. We went from 0 to 100 in 2 seconds and it's just bizarre now.

I thought ASM was bad then I read the Venom part and boy it was worse. This was dumb. I'm glad it was free. It will not get anybody through the door back to a local comic book shop to pick up either but I hope I'm wrong.

A very uneven and rushed issue as all others were but this one has to be the lowest for me. At this point mindless fun can't keep the engine going. My interest is fading in this series. The art was good but unpolished and inconsistent in some places. D'Urso has a future in this business.

I'm on the fence on this one. Good setup overall and keeps flowing but I already know 90% of this stuff and I spent money already to read it so the 10% new material isn't worth $10. As someone mentioned this should have been the Marvel Comics 1001 and it would have been much better then but the price is an issue for me as it keeps me from picking up other books. This should have been proportionally priced below $5 to get people to pick it up but Marvel has to squeeze us for every dime. We'll see where this goes but as of now I'll check out the Road to Empyre and decide then.

I just feel nothing for this book. I hope I get to see Cafu in another book down the road.

I finally had this book show up after Diamond shipped my store damaged ones so It's been a while. Sometimes the reader and the writers are on different wavelengths. Cantwell and I are on different orbits. I guess this is just not the book for me. I have added and dropped this book from my list 3 times in 10 issues. Never had a ride like this with any other book. As soon as I think it's clicking the next issue just makes it all go south. Some of the decisions making in this and the plot points emphasized are just puzzling for me. Cafu and D'Armatta are outstanding and make it all bearable but that's it for me. I will go away now and leave you guys to enjoy this.

Disappointing. This event was on idle for the last few issues that it felt too ruched at the end. Really Medusa just said " Oh why didn't they tell us?" Really!! At least Leinil Yu was good on art to finish this wasted opportunity.

I must be in the minority here. I thought it was OK and very by the book so far. I read way too many Marvel events I guess. I mean threat arrives and destroys everyone and there is no hope and option A,B,C and D fails has been done a million times over. I get it that it's in the journey but still can't get to care for Knull at all. Venom started so well 2 years ago but this just is not the end I was expecting from Cates. Stegman/Mayer/Martin are doing awesome work and at least that is worth the $6. I'm out.

I'm losing interest fast. Oh well another book off the pull list.

Where is this going? No idea. King just keeps delivering the new parents' life of mythological creatures and I just don't care about any of this. I'll read the rest only because I wanna know how this ends but man if this was read as single issues, I would have quit caring and dropped it. Mitch Gerards is a great artist and he shows great mix in his art and especially his coloring.

Very thin story happening here. Not much substance and it all went down on a boat ride that took 10 minutes to read and still can't tell you what's so important about this issue. Then the kiss out of nowhere?? Not Soule's finest work. If the mystery has something to offer then it needed more. Mcniven can't be matched. Shalvey does his best with the fight scenes but it's a huge drop in "quality" due to unmatched styles. Laura Martin's colors were nice though. That was a disappointment.

I should've stopped reading this book after McNiven's first issue. Soule had a good first issue with awesome art but the concept here after two issues is just stale. The fight that happened a gazillion times over. Shalvey's art is clean and good but sorry i can't get my head away from how much better it would've been with McNiven's. The optimist in me says Soule deserves a chance to at least give his answers next issue, so we'll see.

The writing is obviously a mixed bag of good ideas implemented in a clunky and disjointed way. Maybe two writers with neither having written any comics is not a good idea....hope they make their ideas come together better. Again the whole Cadaverous villain is a complete waste of time and the story can function with anybody else at this point. Pichelli is actually doing some good work but feels wasted right now.

It's fine and Slott is good with Spidey as usual until the spider-verse stuff happens and I just don't care. The first one was good, the second one was a waste of time and I'm over the novelty of it. I have to skip it. Bagley's art is as good as it has been.

This story is seriously dragged on and on. Art change isn't helping.

The stories are just a mess at this point. It feels as if there is too much story and not enough direction which points to two writers not working well together. Two artists on here was a dumb idea. D'Urso has a completely different look than Mattia de Lilus. It does no service to either artists. It feels like watching an adult series then switching channels to a kid's show and then back. Mattia de Lulis's digital art is just amazing and the only reason I come back.

This book could have been something, it could've been a contender but alas it is not. Aaron and Gronbekk as writers are not complementing each other. Yet another series suffers from mismatched art between two artists that could not be further from each other in style. MATTIA DE IULIS is in a whole other category all by himself and D'Urso is great but next to him her art is not holding up. It is as if I'm watching a James Bond movie and switching channels to watch a Disney cartoon and back again and then back again some more. Whoever made this decision was an idiot and I hope they see that now and never do it again.

Narrative wise this was a mess and this chapter just went in a carousel of nonsense. Again there is not enough great art can do to save a story. Mattia de Lulis is a fantastic and unique artist but Aaron and Gronbekk just came up with a useless and unnecessary series. I gave it a shot but I cannot trust this duo to do a good job going forward.

I'm all about Ewing's Venom because his issues always hit different but this whole Carnage stuff just lost me especially with an art partner that delivered some poor pages. Let's hope it was a deadline that rushed his work.

The art here is phenomenal by Hawthorne, Di Benedetto and Redmond but the story adaptation from Cornell itself is lacking many details and information as to who the characters are and what should I care about any of them. This needed a lot more setup up. I really don't care to continue reading. Too bad because Hawthorne killed it on art as always.

This is seriously disjointed it's jarring to read and follow. It's retelling things I already know and not saying enough about what I don't know. Absolute nonsense and we haven't even see the full 10 lives revisited. Cassara and Martin art's skills save this again but man is it a grind to follow these shenanigans deconstructed. This only reinforces my dislike for how X-force (2nd year) and Wolverine were written.

Filler issue that's very forgettable.

Going through the motions and that's bad for a new team. Duggan might have tried to find something here but it didn't work for me. Not a good idea to introduce the new team in a mess of a show. Villa was OK with mixed results. He can have great panels with amazing compositions but then the next ones are OK.

Fall of X continues in the wrong direction. Duggan was doing so well but it's just falling apart narrative wise from ShadowKat to Firestar to the dumb Tony/Emma setup. Maybe I'll change my mind if I was reading Iron-Man but that's the problem with these things. I don't need to read it all and I refuse to and this book is on thin ice. I'm not a fan of Towe's art and his faces just turn me off but others enjoy it so you know tastes and all. I wish Cassara or Caselli were tag-teaming then at least I get to look at a pretty mess.

This series just can't end in a good way. Sandwiched between the real 2 event main books, it really doesn't add much. Duggan has some nice moments for Talon's exit and synch struggle but it just doesn't work together like how Hickman delivered back then. It's a bit hollow. Between that and a really bad Nimrod section, it's not looking good bruv. Noto's art works well for the soft quiet moment between characters but the action looks very bad, static and just brings it to a halt for me. Oh well, so close to the end, I just ride it and then I'm off the train.

It's OK/fun for what it is. As a single issue anywhere else within an X line would have been fine but as part of the Fall of X it really doesn't work. Duggan is trying I believe but it just a bit too late. Cassara on art is FANTASTIC as always and I command his effort and Fajardo Jr. colors him wonderfully!

There is nothing really wrong nor great about this story but we have seen it and read it many times before. We can't just be doing this all over again. If Fall of X is more of this then it's going to be a pointless repetitive exercise and I'll have to pass.

This is not what I had in mind when it was first described months ago. This is quite the opposite of a mature book. I hope we can get the equivalent of DC's Black label for Marvel so we can actually get some real mature books along with goofy S#$@ like this one.

It's ok. Has moments but as an end to the Eternals and Judgment Day, it's lacking. The art from Villanova didn't help either because it was muddled and rushed.

This has all the plot points to work but I just couldn't get into any of the same plans being done again. It took me a while to figure out why I just couldn't get into this event until I remembered how the Eternals by Gillen worked so well with the machine narrating but this one is narrated by the progenitor. That is the main hold up for me because I could follow the machine's narrative while this progenitor is not suited to be narrating this at all. Some scenes make sense then the next 3 are nonsensical and the rules are there are no rules. Then comes the Cap moment at the end and I have to have someone explain to me how Cap gets out of the egg with his shield in hand? Seriously? Just because it's a made up story doesn't mean it can't have logical steps. I'm not even going to discuss the complete loss of meaning to death in comics. Schiti's style is strange yet again when the characters are different from page to page and the progenitor's physique and especially arms drastically change throughout the issue. The guy is very good and delivers some very nice pages but there is plenty of rushed work and inconsistency.

It's ambitious but it ends with a whimpering pause. I get we're asking the readers to do better and be better but man is this way off the mark. I appreciate Guillen showcasing regular citizens view of events and have proper repercussions even if things will go back to normal as they always do but not as fast as before. I appreciate him dropping some heavy questions about the idea of God and his attributes as existential endeavors to find answers and he did ask some good questions as this made up god can never be truly worthy of judging creations while it is itself a creation no matter how powerful it is. Also the criteria for judging was erratic and unknown. It was the delivery and the pacing of this issue that killed the pondering. I never wanted a huge fight to justify an end to this quest but We needed characters asking better questions and we didn't get that. At least not the ones that count. If you're going to ponder, mate you need to go further because you're only at the surface. We never get proper answers and this final Host was not a good vessel for giving any. Schiti and Fiorelli on art were good but Gracia relied heavily on red tones that it took out of what was happening. I get that doomsday with blood and fire need to have red but it needed nuance. Still he is good overall.

This is not bad but it's not great either. I'm glad we're moving going back to the tablets since there are more questions than answers at the moment but I hope we get a closure or at least a connection with what came before instead of dancing around and stretching stuff endlessly. The art was very inconsistent and was bad in some places which didn't help at all.

This book has too many moving parts and I finally understand why. It just went nuts these last few issues as Spencer is leaving and he's trying to resolve the narrative threads. It does not help that the 3 art teams are not complementary to each other. This is all over the place in all facets.

The story is good and I'm all in trying to give Spencer the benefit of doubt to finish but damn man how many fricking artists it takes to have on these books. It takes me out of it the second I see it, I'm done and my interest is gone. Having ASM at 2 or 3 issues a month is stupid unless you plan way ahead and have scripts to artists months in advance. Give Federico Vicentini time...I can wait.

It is too much and not enough at the same time. Too many hints and switches to keep you guessing but very frustrating at the same time because there cannot be satisfying answers for all these threads. I will still be here to finish this ride simply because after 80+ issues I can't stop now. I am also prepared to forgive as long as Spencer doesn't make this another Chameleon fake out or some BS like that. I gave up on the art way back when, so this is on par with the ping pong ASM has been on for the last few months.

Confusion here, confusion there and confusion everywhere. It gives 2 answers and leaves 4 unanswered. It came out of nowhere and although I'm happy Sins Past is addressed and "fixed" by Spencer, I can't get my head around Kindred's final form and his relation to Mephisto. I get AI Harrry's work with Chamelion/Mysterio but the link to Mephisto and having demonic abilities to kill and revive whoever is not explained? Maybe next issue. As usual, the art is a mess but what else is new here. I am not as excited by this issue as some as it can't even begin to fix the mess I had to endure this past year with ASM. 875 better deliver but alas I don't have much hope here.

Not worth the price but the story and last page might matter in the long run. A weekly book with tie-ins is a bit much! Squeeze those profits I guess....bad in the long run.

It's OK. Getting a bit tedious and good art won't save this generic story about Beyond is bad but we won't say until issue 18 and just let things go on like this taking the air out of the story. Get a real hook and get the show going with some serious consequences. Good art by Gomez won't save this. Now after Spencer's letdown I am ready for this to be over and move on to the next thing. I am not having fun with ASM and it's a shame.

Yeah this is very average ASM. The Beyond era is officially a lull spot holder until we get to the next thing. Ziglar is OK. Paco Medina is good and Grundetjern colors were OK (his skin tones are weird though). Can't wait for this to be over already.

This has the mystery and I am intrigued but it gives me the feeling that I do when an ASM story I read 15 years ago that I forgot how it unfolded and I'm re-reading it. It doesn't help that Romita Jr is doing the art because while it is good because of the inker and colorist, it doesn't scream new but more of a call back to what I already saw and read. It's a weird one because while I'm all for classic and sentiment in ASM, this doesn't feel like that. Anyway at least Zeb Wells is doing OK with some "familiar" beats. (Yes the bar is that low after Spencer's run) My hopes are very low right now and I expect nothing but heart break from ASM, so why change now?

It was OK and not a bad setup for an event but this is supposed to be an ASM book. Where is Peter Parker and how in the world is this related to his MJ and Felicia story? I guess we are spreading this over many books and that is just not a good thing for the current story which will have to wait until this is over. Art worked well for the 4 parts which is good but man the ASM office is killing me right now.

It's plain dumb humor in a story that doesn't require your thinking cap. If you ask questions it all falls apart. I'm just enjoying the amazing Ed McGuiness art that has been inked flawlessly by Rathburn and colored exquisitely by Menyz and even Caramangna lettering was spot on for the tone of this dumb story. I had high hopes for Zeb Wells on ASM but I guess I keep lowering the bar of what's acceptable.

The dumbest and flimsiest of event premises that I have to ignore in order to enjoy McGuinesse's art. That's it. His fantastic art with some tight inks by Rathburn and beautiful colors by Menyz makes this bearable so I can see an electric scooter get thrown around and enjoy it while I ignore why and how we got here. I can't wait for it to be over.

It was OK. I just couldn't get into it even with a good premise but it just felt off for me. Also I'm the one dude who doesn't like the Dodsons' art so here we are.

It's a decent first issue in this arc on its own. Basing this ASM run/story on a continuity minor blip that I vaguely remember was not a good option at least for now. Also waiting a year to start this arc is ludicrous especially when the previous issues were all filler low level payoffs. I have to say that Wells is usually a good writer but I'm noticing that these writers are being crushed by the 60 year history of ASM so I'm still waiting for an Immortal Hulk moment but I fear it will never come. These characters are not allowed to grow or move up so we have to keep building just enough to collapse it all and start over. Romita JR is his usual self here and love it or hate it it's just about the same as it has been. Except for kids because those things were ridiculously hilarious with those big heads lol

The event is good but for a Spider-Man Book he feels like a reactive character with no real depth or oomph to him. Like a secondary person there witnessing a great Mafia war happening. Wells just can't do Peter Parker or Spider-Man fully right but he's good at the crime guys drama. JR Jr. back on art and brings the rough edge this type of book needs.

Not enough to grab you but just enough to keep going. Romita Jr. is great for this mafia war.

I'm trying to read a book about Spider-Man and Peter Parker but all I'm getting is a decent Mafia book with Spidey as a side story happening next to everything. Just doesn't feel like he matters in any of this. Romita Jr. is a great fit.

It was fine but a step down from last issue. Story worked fine from Anna's story within Ravencroft along with William Baker AKA Sandman but other than that we are falling into the same repetitive nonsense that's been the bane of Peter and MJ for 15 years now. Either do something else or go back to how things were. Enough with the back and forth BS. Commit to something and stop dragging this soap opera teasing people forever. The Sinister 6 also feel generic at this point. Carmen Carnero is the best thing about this issue and she delivers beautiful art as always!!

The work by Zeb Wells is good with all the Mafia families war dynamics. Only problem is this a Spidey book where Hammerhead and Company get more work to give them depth over Peter Parker/Spidey so yes it's good but for an ASM book the main guy has no depth and is rudderless. Vazquez is good on art, Cartoony for a war book but very clean and that's me being too picky.

Standard wrap up issue that's only saved by the beautiful art of Stegman. Black cat coming back to normal ....straight outta left field. Why here? OK then.

It's a shore for me to read this book right now. Garron's art and Keith's colors are great but the whole package feels incomplete. The writing is intentionally evasive to evoke suspense but lacks the punch it thinks it's making. I'm still here because I just wanted to have the JLA=Squadron Supreme take on the Avengers as promised last year so every story feels like filler waiting for that showdown.

I gave up on emotionally attaching myself to this book a while ago now and I just enjoy the fireworks and new costumes because that's all there is left below all that prolonged narration by Aaron. It's not as deep as it thinks it is. Garron is fantastic as always.

A bit better than the Thor nonsense and the art is better with Javier Garron.

It's just weird how an Avengers book finally has the Avengers show up for 4 panels and just be background characters. You know exactly where we're going but it's just not structured well. This series has all the components and ideas but Aaron and Editors' execution is not good.

Much better from the previous horrible primer issue that left a bad taste. Still the story lacks a proper connection between these teams that are fighting to kill each other 1 minute and the next are back to back brothers? It just doesn't work. Jason Aaron failed to lay basic explanations in this story like how did any of these teams travel the multiverses in both Avengers books. The starbrand explains this final traverse but all the other dozens/hundreds are without any grounded explanation. The art from Garron is the one positive thing that saves this issue because at least I can enjoy his tremendous work on the pages along with Curiel's wonderful colors.

It's very fair to say this is a decent issue but the road to get here was marred with long, useless stories and wasted opportunities or just lazy story telling. Javier Garron does an outstanding job as usual. I'm still here since we're so close to the end and I can't wait to stop after 4.5 years of this miserable crap. I just can't quit this close to the end.

I'm trying to like this book but just can't get into it. I'll check back later.

I think I'm done with this book. This took forever and we've taken an issue just to explain what happened the past 17 issues? Really that's not good.

The ideas are there but the execution and the art killed this issue. Coates tries to swerve back to some earlier scenes with deflective ideas onto the reader but just ended up losing me as it didn't land as he hoped. The art was OK but the lack of movement and energy in these scenes made them fall flat as there was no urgency or sense of direction to the characters or galactic ships. Don't get me wrong, the art was descent but it didn't fit the big galactic scenes and it lacked the right touches to deliver the message of the narrative. Acuna gets criticized for his art and how it's static by some people (I don't know why) but his galactic fights and drama scenes always have energy and I can feel them. Anyway Acuna is coming back to finish the last 4 issues of this book and I hope Coates will end it well because it's dragging right now.

This was OK but a disappointment after going through the whole intergalactic empire of Wakanda stuff for so long. The end was just very unfinished. Maybe the crazy delay was part of the problem but to me it just feels unfinished and so much left on the table. Also how are the only heroes showing up from North America/world only black so what? The other heroes won't save Wakanda or is T'challa stupid enough to only reach out to black heroes. This is a stupid plot point but just takes me out of it. I get we are trying to get a black power moment here but give your allies a place at the table because the Avengers and the X-men can help so why not have them there too??. I mean the Black Panther is the leader of the Avengers so WTF?? Can he not ask them to join in. Let me go to intergalactic war but only invite the black heroes. How is this advancing anything. Dumb if you ask me. Acuna is outstanding as always although some panels seem unfinished with less ink (maybe on purpose?) but not his usual strikingly inked stuff. But his colors were on point.

This was like watching someone walk around the neighborhood looking for his lost dog? The most mundane decompressed story telling by Duggan that could have been shown in 3 to 4 pages. Noto is good as usual.

It is there to usher Cable back to his place so feels almost pointless to have gone through all the mess we did years ago with baby cable. I don't know how Duggan is going to make me care for the last 2 issues. Noto is gonna Noto.

It's just steady and there. The pulse never gets going for this series and it feels like a waste except for the beautiful art from Cranero and RB Silva. The extra stories don't add much and don't justify the $8 price. Marvel is on the cash grab while can business model.

Straczynski tries too hard to have Cap drop some heavy knowledge and quotes but just doesn't work well. Cap seems out of place in a story that should have Dr. Strange at least in the mix...weird. Magno is delivery some very detailed art but just seems off to me in places. I can't really put my finger on it.

This is not good enough from Kelly, Lanzing and Onyebuchi. I'm not excited for the rest of this mini-event. Magno on art on the other hand delivered detailed and moody art that fits the tone but his art is far above what the writing is achieving. Kudos to Carlos Magno for giving a 100% always. Guru-eFX's colors weren't bad either.

I'm so cold on this event. Only few issues to go but the pacing, dialogue from Kelly and Lanzing is just not hitting the spot and the art just didn't work for me. To be fair though some action scenes were well illustrated and retro panels to Dimension Z were well planned and colored nicely by Woodard but I've been spoiled by Carnero and she is missed here.

It has its moments but the whole outer circle just doesn't work for me. After that no suspension of belief helps me follow what the characters are doing.

Carmen Carnero is an awesome artist that elevated this book beyond where Kelly and Lanzing had it. They initially set up the story with such high stakes and epic fanfare but in the end the outer circle running a 100 year game in full control defeated in the easiest way possible. The problem is every point where this story is supposed to get you onboard was a letdown. For example anyone can see that Bucky hasn't turned on Steve and was doing exactly what you'd expect. If this is your first espionage comic or first Captain America comic then yeah it's good but with the back drop of what came before it, it's not up to the standard. I mean you had Bucky with Steve blessing drop Wulfgang Fortunov at Dr. Doom's door and act as if you didn't kill him....alright cheerios our hands are clean and Cap is still the good guy YAY! Problematic. Props to Woodard for the amazing colors all around and especially how he made Nomad's skin and bucky's arm really different.

This feels disjointed as an event and I'm not really invested here. R.B. Silva on art is always a treat and he is not the problem here so the event's writing is flat so far.

This book is losing me fast. It's OK but the Cates self service is not for me and it is not helping this story. The tropes are just repetitive now. For the people that love Cates and his books, this is great for you but he lost me somewhere in the middle of his Venom run and King in Black is a waste of time so I don't know what happened but Cates went from High on the list to low fast. I'll give it one more try next month and see. Shaw and Cunniffe are pretty good!

This was OK. Nothing to get me excited for Devil's Reign. It has come down quite a bit these last few issues. The way the fight scenes went down and how the heroes showed at the end was just dumb. The art on the fight scenes was confusing at times and didn't help.

This was OK to read and none of the retcon hit as it has for others and just falls flat. I almost don't care at this point and I think I need to step away from this book for a while. Zdarsky has lost a lot of his goodwill from the early dozen issues but Dark Reign was not good. It doesn't help that I'm currently reading the Waid/Rivera/Samnee run and it's much better overall. The art was good and not the problem here. Checchetto and Co are great!

It was very OK and the characters had to be reduced back to what they were a while back in order to have this setup make sense. It's forced and feels counterproductive. Kudos to the people that enjoy Kubert's art but it's not for me.

Picked this up since I love Libranda's art but wasn't following the series based on the first few issues. It was cute with some nice moments and the art was fantastic but they lost me at the end as yet another character is dying....yes another one. I just can't anymore with everyone dying. How many times do we have to do this story? I'll check back later to see what Thompson makes of it. I hope I'm wrong.

Cates cannot make me care about this story and i love the Inhumans. I found a book that Cates can't make it work. It had to happen sooner or later. Something in the process of info delivery/dumping just makes the story almost meaningless. My other disappointment is the art. I love Olivetti's style so much but somehow he is not delivering his usual great stuff here. Lines look rushed and he's definitely trying a new style but it's lacking his usual flair. Too bad because i was looking forward to this series. (Back to Venom i go).

This series needed better planning and better art. Both creators (Cates + Olivetti) are great but this fourth issue just doesn't work. From the disconnected story telling which is trying to be continue the mystery but just comes off confusing. The last part is the only thing that saved this story. Olivetti again just doesn't succeed in his new style. Some panels are rushed and the detail i loved about his art before is lacking in many parts. I mean i get trying new things but it's not working for me. I'll be there for the last issue but i really don't know why?

I really tried to like this book and stuck with it but alas it's not good. I guess writing the inhumans is a hard thing to do for recent writers and Donny Cates is no exception. Olivetti's new art style while decent, just hasn't grown on me and isn't as good as his previous work.

It just spins wheels with side stories that add nothing. Deadpool wasn't used well here at all. It's completely wasted space. Duggan just spoiled me i guess. Marquez is his usual good self but the Oeming flashbacks were jarring to me and didn't fit.

I am not sure if the Japanese is not translated well but this issue felt and read clunky. The dialogue was almost robotic at times. I also can't connect well with Mariko and I'm waiting for that to happen. The art is great in many places but sometimes Momoko's art in some panels lacks the detail that you see in her back page illustrations of creatures.

I just don't feel this series anymore. It doesn't help that you make me read thunderbolts nonsense that I couldn't care less about. I'll give the relaunch a try and I hope Zdarsky and Checcetto can capture their previous form.

This was a let down. A 2-4 page story that should've been part of a narrative with a nice message was stretched for a whole issue. Nothing against the guest artists but Quinones was missed here.

This was like reading a bulletin point explanation of what's happening. It felt too formulaic to fully digest or enjoy for me. Duggan can do better and has before multiple times but this feels like we're in a hurry or a means to an end. Interesting ideas in some panels are lost in the bigger picture. Lucas Werneck has gotten better and his art is some splash pages is wonderful. Other panels are still in need of attention especially the actions sequences. Finally that M.O.D.O.K. resignation letter is a waste of space. Hickman brought the data pages to prominence but no other writer knows how to use them properly except for Al Ewing.

Too many one shots and fillers going on right now. It's OK if you love the run but not gonna make you stick with it.

It was OK. This book is back to dragging until we get to the Reckoning then that will decide if I stick with this Slott fest!

This issue was not the place to introduce a new player or maybe do it better. Slott had to tie loose ends way too quickly for the next writer but it was off for me. Overall the series had good moments but many bad ones too. Cafu and Aburtov were great on art.

It's not bad just disappointing. It's just not a F4 story that should have started the run. This is a filler down the road once you establish your story. Iban Coello is good on art. Going to give this an arc and see where we are then.

It's not clicking for me especially starting with the side quests while not establishing a main story to anchor it. This feels like a Halloween throw away issue.

It's OK. Feels like I've read this type of story before. The art by Kuder is nice!

Totally rushed and wasted at the end here. Nice build up for many great issues that's JUST POOF. "Insert happy ending here" Humphries dissapoints a bit. Too bad because Humphries was having a nice run that sucked me back into the Green lanterns world after being gone for years.

I'm not buying into this story. It just feels like yet another thing I read before. I must be getting too old for these crossovers. Still early so we'll see if Ewing turns it around.

While some aspects like diving into Hyperion's mind are better than last issue, others like how Steve Rogers was freed was a big question mark. Many pages are just there to make you go pick up the tie-ins. That is stupid because the story should tell you everything you need to know instead of shelling out more money. Still on board here with this but we better deliver details next time otherwise it's not going to work for the whole series to get summary text boxes of whole issues. Keown is OK but Magno was better detailed. McGuiness, Morales and Wilson should do the whole thing because they are as tight as can be.

Not bad but the fun matchups can only go so far without details about why Squadron Supreme of America is better than the Avengers? Details?? What has Mephisto really done here? How Characters end up where they are....too may to count. Again I reaffirm that this could have been addressed properly in the Avengers book where I would have followed along for 24 issues with details instead of getting Moon Knight and Phoenix nonsense for a dozen issues that did nothing for me. McGuiness's art, Morales's inks and Wilson's colors were fantastic!!! One of the only redeeming things here. The last page is a slap in the face as if I will follow the Avengers book again after dragging me along for 30 issues about nothing. You can do better than this. I'm out!

The story is lacking in proper construction. The narrative isn't clear as to what is happening. It sounds big and important but the details aren't there. Characters show up and i'm supposed to care about them. No time spent on them and where they're from. I can't afford to buy the tie-ins so i'm lost as to who is what and why they're here. Just as fast as they show up, they're divided back to their old selves. I wanted to see Kamala Kang in action and some mash-ups sound intriguing but the time was not spent developing them at all. I'm hard on this issue because i really wanted to get on board the story especially when Deodato Jr. and Martin are great on art even if some panels are unclear and don't help follow Duggan's story. He did much better earlier on. I hope he brings around in the last two.

Average ending. The art by Deodato and Martin is great but the story is just so opened ended with no real finite answers. A few nice nods here and there but this one stings because i really enjoyed the GOTG books by Duggan from the start with Kuder's fantastic art, tagged along with some nice concepts during the Countdown with Hawthorne's beautiful visuals and i was enjoying them. Then came the main event and i liked the first few issues because of what Duggan was building but that all came crumbling down in issue 3. I somehow can't see this ending here justifiable of my spent time and money. I Have yet to read an event worth my time since Hickman's Secret Wars.

I wanted to see where we are and because Cafu is back. It's like I didn't miss a beat. Just really slow storytelling that Gets boring real quick. Interesting ending but the way I've been hooked and disappointed before, I don't expect much. Cafu makes anything worth reading!!

It's OK. I feel like i would've liked this comic book 10 years ago. Decent story by Ewing with great art (Kudos to Libranda and Vecchio) i'm just not the target audience for this book and i'm looking for different stories. If you already like Ironheart, you'll love it. As for me the search continues. Side note why does Marvel price #1s at $5.? If i knew that before i got to pay for it i would have put it back. Marvel needs comics like these to succeed but pricing it higher for younger readers isn't helping.

I think I might not be enjoying Kamala's adventures anymore. Maybe it's the new direction by Ahmed. This is just too predictable and almost dull in some parts. I might have to drop this book after reading it since day one.

A great story and art by Acuna that's stuck between 2 average tales. the Monsters story has some humor that can't save it and the Abbinanti Thing story has been done many times before and the art can't save that one either. What I need is the Acuna deviants story to be a 6 issue mini with him on art banging it out because I loved it.

It's OK. Felt a bit underwhelmed by both stories.

It's not bad but not great either. Jed McKay has to continuously ask through Felicia as to why we're back to this nonsense after much previous development. I get it but detracts from the story for me. This just shows that editorial doesn't know where to go and we have to build only to destroy in order to sell books because Dark Web had to happen no matter what whether there is any common sense in or not. This tracks perfectly along the whole flimsy Dark Web event so far. I hope we get past this event and develop a proper story for this team-up.

It keeps going in a worse direction to portray the disarray of Scott Free and his life going against his mental anguish in the face of Orion and Darkseid but It doesn't work for me. Mitch Gerards's art fits this well but it doesn't elevate the story for me but it's very good.

Much needed issue that develops the space or void between these characters but man I don't know how people were giving this a 10. We all are different so NEXT!

This book doesn't really know what story it wants to tell. King does his thing with them and comes way off. Another clever device that doesn't land the concept of a couple figuring it out as they go mundanely through their crazy life. I get why Barda is doing what she's doing but we still don't know what Scott is really doing and this issue gets you no closer to that.

A couple having a baby delivery story dressed way up in mythological drama/war. King knows his way here and I know all of these angles well as parent but it really has nothing to tie it to what we just went through. I can't get over the disconnect between what Scott is doing and what Barda is doing. Weird but maybe that's what King is going for. Mitch Gerards's art fits this to the T.

Straight forward with sleight of hand. King teases but I just couldn't care about the drag with these characters. Mitch Gerards continues to get better and more confortable with these guys and it looks great.

It was OK.

It's quite clear now that two writers on this book is not working for me. I like Hickman's style and Reis's art. It's simple as that for me. Brisson is writing a whole other book that does not interest me at all no matter how cute and sincere it is. I like Brisson when I read him writing something a 100% but this 35-50%? Brisson is not working for me. I have to stay on this book because I'm here for Hickman and Reis.

It was OK. Classic old school rescue story with some clean Failla art but completely adds nothing....maybe we'll see. I guess Hickman is done with book and I don't know how long I can stick with this group doing the same things over and over.

The Gala stuff was very pointless for me. While I care about this team and what came before, the first half of this book was subpar. Ayala picks it up towards the end with familiar beats which are the parts I care about. The art here was bad. Coming from Rod Reis's amazing art, it was a shock to see this. Alex Lins needs to work on his craft because this is not ready for primetime. Lins gets his stuff together towards the end and his art improves a bit but man when is Rod Reis back?

Rod Reis is sorely missed here. Ayala storytelling is well paced and interesting but Reis's art made it so much better.

This has gone around for a bit longer than it needed to. It's stalling a bit and it needs new ideas soon.

The wheels are coming off and I believe the abrupt way this story is going to hit a wall will hurt. First issue where I see Gillen trying to outpace the inevitable end and he overdoes it but I'll hold for the last issue to truly judge this. It is really confusing for Xavier to one up himself and the Enigma and AI and everyone else which makes the story such a shore to follow. RB Silva is as very good as always even as he tries to convey the insanity of what's happening no problems there.

This is OK. If Pichelli wasn't drawing this I would have dropped it. Yes the pressure is high since the fanfares of Abrams were played out loud and hyped so much. It rotates between new angles and familiar tones but not mixed well enough to work. It's trying to do something new yet it's repeating the same beats done in Spidey books before it and doesn't quite make you care about its antagonist. I get that we're trying to make it a mystery but it's flat as a device here. Pichelli is what's bringing me back.

This book needs to shift away from this story asap and try to expand a bit because it hit a wall.

It's good but this story needed a few more pages instead of cramming important scenes in one page. Latour had me interested in the Silver Surfer's plight with Galactus and has them in a new interesting dynamic but a few things kept me from enjoying it fully. Latour while doing great work on the art front, has not made some scenes stick out more to point out the changing points of view and narratives. A few changes on the color scheme and this book would read better. I know it's hard to illustrate this in the setting he's in but a few background hues either brighter or darker would've helped me.

This was good but I don't see myself coming back. Didn't grip me even though the art by Robles is phenomenal.

Mosley's script is all over the place with no real coherent narrative. I'm sure the answers will come(I hope) but man is it a weird and choppy setup up. The only reason I'm here is Tom Reilly's fantastic classic yet fresh art! Jordie Bellaire is a great colorist. She does well here and makes it so beautiful.

Did we really need 3 issues to get here. A lot of forced moves to make the mystery last this long. I just can't get over the trope of characters fighting first for 2 issues and disappearing at convenient times only to reappear when it's time for exposition and explanations to happen. Yeah the reveals are not working for me. This comic move is done to death in comics. This will depend on what the 4th issue does so the rating could change if Gail Simone lands a proper one. I hope I got it wrong so we'll see. The interplay between characters is fine and Noto is great as usual even when he messes up figures sometimes.

I really tried to like this first issue. But maybe it was over hyped from way too many people as the next big thing and it's not even close to being a good story worth reading let alone a masterpiece that it was made out to be. Yes there was plenty of story to read and dissect in the oversized issue but what i found at the end was lacking any real substance and more a mix of rehashed ideas of what has already been done. Not original at all and those fantasy animals looked really bad which takes me to the art of Camuncoli who I was introduced to when Superior Spider-Man came out and his art was outstanding there back 6 years ago but this here looks like it suffers from being rushed and not as sharp and detailed as it should be. I'll pass on this series especially when the market is saturated with awesome books.

Great idea but a prolonged execution that underwhelms with great visuals that can only do so much. I'm off and will check back later.

This has felt overly done for me. It's down from the height of last issue. It's just that the way Meridius is addressed and Carnage's involvement just feels disjointed. But I'll let Ewing deliver an arc before fully judging it.

I had high expectations but i was disappointed. It's just not for me. I'm taking this event off. I just couldn't get into Aaron's flow and his spider-man talking like a 14 year old just took me right off. Plus all these characters dying again and again is meh. The art is absolutely stunning but that's not enough for me. Also the amount of tie-ins is beyond what i can afford. I Hope everyone else enjoys it!

I'm trying to stay with this but it's losing me again. Great ideas that are all over the map and are not coherent enough to gel together. Before it was too little stretched over many issues and now too much crammed into one issue. The pacing was not handled well. If Cassara wasn't lights out with his art, this would be really bad.

This story is Percy following up on his X-Force and Wolverine runs so if you're loving those then boy this is for you! Me, I gave up on wolverine early on and X-force after 25 issues. So this story builds on them and tries to give you something to get your attention going forward. But It's just not enough. I will stick with it for now because it's weekly so the narrative shouldn't take a hit from a monthly release. But the next phase of the Krakoan age post Hickman is sadly off to a rocky start. HOX/POX was such a great story that I feel like I can never be satisfied unless those threads are weaved in here and in Destiny of X. Otherwise I'm out. Nobody has 3 or 5 years to slowly churn something that the original creator didn't want to play with or drag. If the original story is put aside to focus on something else then the story is over. The main reason the score wasn't a 5 is Cassara's art. It's the only real positive here.

The art continues to shine as Cassara and Martin are the only stellar thing happening here. The narrative just doesn't have the punch that Percy is trying to make it be.

It's crammed and all over the map. Cassara's art saves this one again! It has neat concepts and scenes like Storm's fight but this event should not be stretched over 15 issues and need it crammed in 3. Horrible set up on the editors part.

It's not bad but we've heard and seen almost all of this. The few pages with any new material are not worth the price of admission. It's a great story but stretching like this to build suspense and intrigue just kills any momentum or interest I had. I was all in then we slowed it down then was back in and now I'm just meh and waiting for it to be over already. The art from Asrar and recycled Yu stuff is elevating this story but that's it. Disappointing!

This is reminiscent of some of Hickman's avengers/new avengers in the day where he just switches gear and it sucks because it just doesn't fit with what came before it. It will mean something way down the road but it just feels off. Booth's art is very 90s with a fresh rinse. I'm meh on it because it works some places and falls flat in others. I hope we get Asrar back soon.

It just doesn't work. Quick read that tries to prove a point but it doesn't have the hit it thinks it has plus that Cyclops ending was dumb. Villa delivers some nice action sequences but his work just needs more reps to improve his art.

The X-terminators was one of the worst non-sense I read this year. So that team showing up here just ruined this book which had a good 2 Lauras story to tell.

Duggan delivers some OK X-Men stuff here but it feels like a time wasting stand in. Cassara has great pages and some not so detailed as his usual stuff but the hectic schedule of comics would get to the best artist. It's looking like I'm starting to tire of this X-Men drama post Sins of Sinister. I'll ride it to Fall of X but it's getting stale for me and we need a real shake up but knowing Marvel, these things will be formulaic to the T.

It's a full bag with way too many things happening so the stories are all over the place. We even get pages with Sunspot in Otherworld plot that just wasted important space because I need to get an Unlimited account to actually read it. You can't waste valuable real estate in a 20 page book on a throw away story while your other 6 plot lines and 3 subplots get 1 or 2 pages each. Cassara on art and Martin on colors were great and are the reason this worked at all. Fall of X is looking like an exit door for me. We'll see.

It's fine and it reads OK but I'm just not into what's happening since it feels like I'm reading emotionless sequences. Ok A then B then we add C like a robotic dictation. Don't get me wrong there is attempt at infusing emotions here on every panel but it's not working for me. This should be enjoyable but it's not. The clear winners so far for me are Guillen and Ewing who continue doing great work on their books. Noto is a great artist who does it all including the coloring. His art works well on the still sequences but the action stuff is lacking or he was rushed.

Things happen and are summarized by Duggan. Joshua Cassara is the guy that makes this book worth reading and enjoying. The art is worth it and props to Fajardo on colors but the story has gotten stale a while ago. Just get me to the end so I don't have to read another X book for another decade unless Gillen/Ewing/Hickman come back.

We're headed for Fall of X and There is no mystery for me. It's building but I just don't care for it. Al Ewing is always good with his words and setup but as usual this will read better collected in line with previous and future work.

Why are Powers of X and X-Men Forever separated narrative wise into 2 books I will never know. Powers only makes sense in the last issue if you read this otherwise Xavier's choices are irrational (beyond the usual). Only positive is that it came out same week so my assumptions were validated right away. Weird setup is all. Fall of X is crashing hard but the art from Maresca is good and not the problem with any of this.

This is an essential reading book. I feel for the people trying to make sense of the other books without this convoluted multifaceted story. Gillen does OK and Maresca has some nice work mixed in with some unfinished stuff but it's solid. I've just almost checked out of Krakoa and I'm just waiting for the end.

A bit repetitive but it might work better if you're not up to speed with Eternals or maybe it will be too much info. Still looking forward to A.X.E. but will skip almost all tie-ins except for what I'm pulling already. Pasqual Ferry is rough and simple on purpose. The excess and rough lines on the male figures vs the female figures is a nice touch but the style doesn't suit the tone of the story. Still, props to him for the eternals designs of sets and the antimatter bomb.

Generic Spidey Venom stuff. Stegman is the bright light here!!

It was ok. We're stretching these stories a bit too thin.

I just couldn't get into this one. It's missing something.

It was a let down for me. Spencer had some good elements but overall Hunted had more misses at the end.

Well this book has turned into The Spidey Foes with a guest role by Spider-Man. It's enjoyable for what it is but it does not feel like the Amazing Spider-Man book we got last year. I hope we get that focus back on where it is needed.

It's OK. The art is not the problem here even as Gleason is testing out styles throughout the issue. Just the LMD bullet Head banger is worth the price of admission! But Spencer is cramming too much in an issue where Spidey 2099 does nothing. What's the point of leaving threads hanging and starting others and not answering anything about 2099?? Two issues in and nothing just so I go and buy the 2099 event books? NO! Silver Sable's story is OK but not enough to keep me paying attention. I'm always there for ASM but I can't wait for January when we go back to regular schedule.

It's everything I should like especially Spencer's poignant writing but The art didn't work for me and Still feels like we're hovering and waiting for Kindred. The art has great moments and the detail in some scenes is great especially when the characters are masked but the faces and certain layouts took me out of it. Ferreira is good but he needs to work on his craft/faces. the cover is top notch though.

It's good at times, hard to read at times and has good art to boot but for a 10 minutes read it's a disappointment at the end of the day for me. We really need to stop dragging stories like this especially with all of the .LR issues because it just dilutes the product and kills the story for me instead of enriching it. I get we need to build drama and I can see great ideas from Spencer that get lost in the sea of the dragged out process. Too bad. I still hold hope they don't finish this without proper answers because I can see them drag this story for another 2 years from now where they will tease OMD/Mephisto yet again. I've become so cynical from the shenanigans they pulled over the years.

Still aftermath still DRE I guess? Aside from what came before it, it's fine as is. It's good Spidey/Osborn dynamics with Bagley art, it's as classic as it gets. How can we decompress this story even more...oh wait I said a while ago we're going another 50 issues before we get any real resolution and It looks like that was a good guess. Now let's hope at issue 100 we actually fix OMD and not just do another 100 issues teasing this crap.

Not bad. Still can't grab me but just enough to keep me interested. The art from Ferreira wasn't as good as previous issues in my opinion.

Moving the story with nice art but ultimately just another run of the mill Spencer ASM issue. I will always read ASM but I do wish it was better than this.

Not bad but not great either. Fun read with fitting dynamic art. I am still underwhelmed by the stories juggling way too many side characters leaving Spider-Man as a supporting character in an average story. Still gonna be here for the conclusion (Maybe? nothing ever truly ends in these books). This book is headed towards a weekly publishing schedule this summer with Sinister War so I am not optimistic on the quality picking up but hope springs eternal!

At this point just when I get excited about something, another arc comes in and drags plot points I gave up on from 50 issues ago. Feels like a person I met 3 years ago that's a friend of a friend and then try to remember what we talked about then. Oh well, I will be here to hope for the best that Spencer ties his plot points better this time around. If only the art was good but man where is Bagley or Gleason or Vicentini?? This almost weekly shipping is destroying the art on ASM.

It still reads busy and unfinished somehow. Maybe the mystery plot points all over the place are not helping. Spencer knows ow to grab your attention but He does carry too much and loses things along the way only to bring them back when you completely forgot about them. But if only the art was great and consistent. The 3 art teams in 1 issue here do not help at all. Once you get used to one, another comes along and slaps your eyes. Again this book is good and the stories are interesting but going almost weekly will destroy the editing and the art.

It's a mixed bag of things working and others are just nonsensical. Thompson's dialogue in some parts sounds odd or off. Morbius was just weird all throughout with no payoff. Sara Pichelli's art wasn't bad because some scenes were fantastic and others are off. Her new style is odd to me but it has its good moments. Also she couldn't finish the whole issue so I assume her health issues aren't gone. I wish her the best!

It's not bad at all. Ahmed's horror take on ASM is cool and Fornes art is great with nice moody colors from Brown! BUT this was a very short read that felt like a tie-in more than the .BEY issues. Weird setup up for the beyond story and wasted effort in my opinion.

It was fun and bit of change from the previous ones. This beyond series doesn't have one unique identity by design and it suffers for it. Kelly Thompson does good and has many good quips but the way the issue goes around itself to get to the end was forced. Sara Pichelli style has changed and she can't finish issues anymore because of her back injuries. It's good but it has changed. The second artist change was jarring and took away from the issue overall.

It is a tale of many threads that really didn't connect well at the end. They said they wanted to do some drama and something new with Ben Reilly and created Chasm after all this although this was done before in the clone conspiracy where Ben Reilly becomes the "Jackal" after all the shenanigans he went through from being killed over and over again by Miles Warren having his mind become corrupted. The dude will never get a proper treatment because as they said in the issue that Peter Parker and Miles Morales are untouchable so we have to mess with Ben Reilly. He is slowly becoming the new Hank Pym. I'm a big fan of Zeb Wells so I enjoyed his issues the most but this was not a true end but rather a link to his ASM era. So I have high hopes for that. We'll see. All of the artists did great, Gleason and Pichelli were outstanding and Bagley is always welcome on ASM because it just feels right. Valenza on colors was spot on, fresh and bright or gloomy and moody when it needs to be.

OK. Some payoff with a classic Boomerang moment that was long coming but overall it needed me to have had read Daredevil Vol2 to get a better idea of the weight of what just happened. I never read Daredevil because I never cared for the character until Zdarsky wrote it. Good for Daredevil fans but for me it's a meh?? It also needed better art to help the story with sharper art. I don't know why people don't understand that comic books are a visual medium and without proper visuals to enhance the story then I might as well read a book where my imagination can do better.

Enjoyable shenanigans. I like this run but It's not breaking any new grounds. Enjoyable for now.

This ASM issue is just out of place with this run except for a few pages. Zeb Wells script falls flat for me. Some of it works and is fun but the dialogue and action sequences are weird. I'm starting to not care about the 6 months gap because there are no answers 9 issues in and so the mystery just disappears for me. The art by Gleason is really good but it didn't help me read and understand this issue especially when Moira and MJ are talking. His choices to represent them in that weird format where I one second MJ is there and then Moira shows up was very confusing. Great art but the script and drawing choices didn't help this one on top of being a tie-in to an event from 2 months ago.

It's a predictable Tie-in albeit a nice one. Zeb Wells is good with ASM characters but I need more here than a nice little story that beats the same drums as before. Dragotta style is the same but it's ASM with characters that have been pre-defined so he can't do the same flair with East of West's new characters that everyone expects.

It's not bad actually. I thought I didn't care for Paul until I see his face and then I'm revolted at that dumb story plot point. Gleason is great!

This is not bad and fun if you like Rek-Rap and Dark Web but hardly worth it except for the art from McGuiness which is flawless and very well detailed.

I actually enjoyed this one from Zeb Wells. He does a very good job channeling the bad guys vibe but sometimes Spider-Man is lost a bit. Still it has the feel of a proper ASM story and while the rinse and repeat cycle is tiresome, I didn't mind it here and it was a palate cleanser (before more BS to come). Todd Nauck on art is always great! He delivers beautiful and very detailed art. I wish he was part of the rotation. Sonia Oback debut on colors did very well too!

What can I say? I enjoyed it as the soap opera that it is even with how dirty Ben is being treated. It's a step up over what came way back when but it all feels temporary. The detailed artwork from Todd Nauck is simply great! The shadows alone make me appreciate him. He deserves more ASM in his future. The colors from Sonia are perfect. Somber and subdued and not overly bright or popping which works well here. Kudos to her!

A steady good story as a one off tie-in. Wells can do some good stuff but his overall storytelling is still very disjointed. I'm glad I escaped spoilers because I'll read Blood Hunt as a Trade later. Hate it or love it, at this level Romita Jr. delivers his consistent art as was issue 1 thanks to the same inker Scott Hanna and colorist Marcio Menyz being there the whole time. It works for me even if it feels like I'm re-reading a story from 15 years ago. I miss Todd Nauck already but I'll enjoy McGuinness around the corner for the 50th. I just Hope Wells can deliver but my hopes are very low at this point.

Much better than gang war. Nice stories from Zeb Wells with great art from Carmen Carnero and Todd Nauck.

After stopping this in singles since the whole Kamala death debacle, I can safely say this reads much better collected. Zeb Wells delivers some decent stories but still underwhelming and not in any meaningful direction. It's fun but Spider-Man and Peter Parker are and will always be stuck in a circular motion storytelling where he is doomed to experience the same things over and over again with nothing really changing. Otto and Norman was fun but it's quickly resolved and it feels redundant. The status quo is tiring man. I've read this before many times over and over. Then we get Felecia and Peter breaking up just like that after what happened. This is just dumb storytelling. Not sure where Zeb ends and where Nick Lowe starts. At least the art was amazing from Ed McGuiness who delivers a near perfect Spider-Man. Kudos to Farmer on inks and Menyz on colors. I can't fault the art here at all. JR Jr was also great and the Mafia wedding was actually going somewhere so we'll see if that delivers... This is was an decent book to read at least until I got to the nonsensical stories at the end because simply put I don't care for spider-boy, I don't care for jackpot and bringing superior spider-man yet again is tiring and stupid at this point. I know this is groundhog day for Spidey but I can't quit it yet. I'll have to wait for Hickman to give me some movement forward in the Ultimate Universe.

Well Waid tried and Delmundo gave it his best shot and in some panels they succeeded but overall this tie in didn't deliver and many characters are not well handled starting with Deadpool and Odinson. I might seem harsh but i know Waid and Delmundo can be better. At least there was no redemption for Taskmaster.

Good enough wrap up with no real meat to chew on. I guess you gotta leave some for the Ghost Rider book. I enjoyed Aaron's Avengers so far but this is weak stuff although it does look great with Caselli's art.

It's an OK end to this up and down arc. rushed at times and decompressed at other times. Aaron has great ideas but his delivery was off with some characters doing things just because? Brood Thor as an example was just a waste. Aaron succeeds in tying the story with baby Starbrand and we'll see where that goes but somehow he misses with too many other ones. His Black widow moment was way off but I did like Cap delivering the baby! McGuiness and Manna combined for the art along with Morales on inks and Keith doing colors. The art was OK. McGuiness was sharper the last issue and Manna was decent but nothing spectacular.

It was interesting for sure as an exploration of who Tony Stark is and where Iron-Man fits in there but three things stand out and don't really work well. One, Tony Stark believes in THE devil (as Mephisto likes to claim) but not God makes no sense to me (But maybe his ego keeps him in denial). Two, How in the world are you gonna drop such a big retcon like that where it just don't fit especially that Bendis recently blew up the whole thing to pieces for no reason. Three, obviously the fatherhood claims by Mephisto are him completely F-ing with Tony's mind but combined with the other retcon becomes too much. Yes some of these threads will be resolved but too much was crammed here. The art didn't help as way too many jarring changes took away from the story. Should've been Zaffino all the way or at least the pre-historic pieces with Lulis on the present sequences.

It's not bad but has so much potential wasted by stupid things like Namor at a bar getting played by a bartender....seriously? Also the art gets my appetite wet with some amazing opening pages by MsGuinness only to get Manna's art for most of the issue. This bate and switch is killing me and my interest in this story.

The story was OK. The art was good!

Good issue by itself away from the previous mess of 39 issues but Aaron is doing it again where he lays it all out and makes you hope for the best but if the last few years are any indication, this will be another disappointment. The main reasons this gets any respect from me is the CAP monologue along with the best art Garron has done in years.

I had to quit reading this book after the Moon Knight and the phoenix arcs debacles and waste of time. I had to pick this up so I can see where we are and I was pleasantly surprised by it. But it is still mostly setup for the next 50 issues where things would go unfulfilled. It reminds me Avengers 700 when I got so excited for the future and was slowly crushed for the next 35 issues. Aaron does what he wants and I get where he's going but man does he need some fine tuning and someone to get him to skip the nonsense for 6 issues and deliver something worth it. Right now the Avengers and X-men main books are just on a holding pattern for most of the time running the clock to get us to some event. Waste of time. With that said I will pick up Avengers Forever and see what he does there. Expectations are below zero right now so who knows? Art wise this book was great!! McGuiness, Kuder and Garron were fantastic! All the colorists were pretty darn good just too many to list'em all.

Back on this train for the arc to see where we go and Aaron is still at it and his style isn't going to change. I just ask to be entertained at this point with some form of story telling that doesn't take 25 issue to make a point. So this was a good start I guess. Frigeri is a good fit here with good art although some faces need work. Curiel is absolutely spot on with his colors.

It's not bad with a few descent woven threads. Frigeri is good but his Captain America and especially the face/Mask are just off for me.

This series while nicely introducing cool characters that will be wasted away, isn't an Avengers book anymore. I accept that we are on a 30-50 issue drip by drip to the finale and that just kills it for me no matter how well the characters can be sometimes. This book gets a 7.5 mainly because Javier Garron is flexing his art muscles and is killing it with his designs and tight inking. David Curiel is almost out-doing Garron with his wonderful colors. The art makes this issue work. Still it might be time to drop this book and Avengers Forever and wait for the Avengers to start doing some avenging in their own book. I'll give the next issues a shot but I already know the answer.

Nice tie-in that tries to expand on the progenitor's frame of mind through Hawkeye's eyes as he goes about his day. It's not bad but feels like we are talking about a different progenitor here because this doesn't align with what Gillen is doing. Land actually was good on art duty with some good stuff and his usual similar exaggerated faces on all characters was toned down a lot.

It is what it is. Dumb fun book that's trying to be serious but the depth isn't there. Towe did much better here and that's because I don't have to see any faces so the guy can draw some nice Dooms.

Much better but it's hard to get hyped for the reveal after so many years of filler crap. This run had all the makings of a great one but the structure of the stories and the bloated multiverse characters/scenarios were just not good. Jason Aaron just stuffs too many things with no real sense to how it affects the story. It just becomes noise. Kuder's art makes it all look awesome. I really like Mark Farmer's inks and Frank Martins' colors on his work. Too bad it wasn't for a better story.

First hick up of the weekly event. A bit of a letdown since all of the previous chapters were great! Hope they finish better than this. Barberi's style is ok and maybe it didn't fully match the previous artists but it's OK.

It's not bad for a finale but it's a let down after the time travel aspect was leaned on so heavily here. It unravels quickly if you take a minute to think about it. As a popcorn comic book for Pepe and Giovanna to flex their art muscles it's good but as a proper story it feels weak. Still enjoyed it but I really hoped Millar wouldn't MacGuffin this event. Pepe Larraz was fantastic and it's obvious he spent many nights and days on this wonderful art. The art is 10/10

Coates is hitting a wall here where the story progresses but i can't keep track or care about it and both options are bad. It's difficult to stick around but i'll have to see where he goes after that ending. Walker makes it all work together well and probably would've been worse without him.

A year later and I wish I can enjoy this book but I just want the story to end so I can get closure. Acuna's art makes this worth the $4.

I'm sorry to say but this finale just did not deliver. I feel for Grant McKay but damn that was not the right thing to do no matter what the alternative realities dictate. The first pages were very poignant and totally had me hooked but lost me toward the end. Also Remender had done a great job all along and had this amazing world built but somehow he fumbled the ending a bit where he tried to juxtapose the ramifications of alternate realities while leaving the door open for something? but who knows what? Matteo Scalera and Moreno Dinisio are perfect as always since the art was not a problem here at all, if anything the art saved this final outing.

Not bad but not great either. I want to like this but the twist didn't work for me. The art from Pepe Larraz colored by Gracia is phenomenal as always and worth the fee. It makes it at least worth following.

It's a fun read if I don't think of it as an event because the Avengers here could be substituted with another team and it wouldn't matter. So it's fine but the art by Pepe Larraz instantly elevates it to great.

This series moves way too fast and I am missing so much by not reading the tie-ins so it's not as enjoyable. Pepe Larraz is killing it on the art just fantastic stuff.

It's not bad but not great either. Domino was a fun addition but the whole story didn't land well together. Omitting certain things creates mystery but if the story suffers for it then it's not worth it. Noto was great as usual.

Not Bad!

It's OK. A Cap book about Cap but without much Cap for many issues now.....why? Romero's art saves this one.

This arc starts in a promising way but still not as intriguing as the past one. Magno's art is not bad but is off from his best. Plenty of detailed work but the figures and faces seem off to me.

This heads back in some sort of direction but still a weird direction for a Cap story. Jesus Saiz helps a lot in delivering some nice art to help the story hit the notes Straczynski is going for but this is way off for me still.

Jesus Saiz's fantastic art is the saving element here for a story that won't be remembered a few months from now. The way this arc just spent all the great will from the first arc baffles me. Not bad but this feels like the 3 or 4 filler episodes that don't matter in a 22 episodes season.

This truly feels like Steve Rogers stepped into battleworld or an alternative universe where he is shoehorned into a life full of exposition using him to build something I have no clue where it's going. Sure it reads nice and makes you think about life or death and having a choice or being thrust into action. Rogers is old school and he at least would have his own opinion based on his faith that is nowhere to be found. Jesus Saiz delivers some really fantastic and clean artwork. It's very good and only enhances the story wherever that's headed. Hollingsworth colors are almost perfect.

Nick Spencer...man you said everything that needed said back in the perfect issue when Rage and the Americops clashed and Sam had the best response. We get it man! Only question is when someone needs to be stirring the pot on the victims side......who's speaking for the real good police officer. It's not all one sided issue either? But i digress, this book has not 1 but 2 vampire birds....so yeah :-)!!!

Nice jusxtaposition by Spencer but the art switch was distracting. Saiz doing the whole issue would have made it better. Not bad but not great either.

This story had everything you would want in a great Cap/ Steve Rogers book. The dialogue and voices are good, the mystery and intrigue, and even better a lot of beautiful art by Carnero/Woodard. But this issue just didn't land right. Too many holes starting with the shield that had a secret message from its original maker....hhmm but this shield was broken by Thanos decades ago and heck even shattered just a few months ago in Savage Avengers. How has this message remained there untouched for almost a century? Was it put back by whoever rebuilt it? I can't reconcile this point and the new organization aka the new Hydra just hasn't worked for me. Plus the nonsense overplayed bickering between Bucky and Peggy isn't working. I will stay with this book because I will give the writers enough time to answer questions and the art from Carmen Carnero is phenomenal. That splash page in the middle is gold!

It's fine as a story but the Outer Circle is just not the big bad that the writers think they are. The main thing to keep up with this book is the Carmen Carnero art that is simply phenomenal 10/10. Woodard's colors here only make it look even better and I like his play with greys and colors in certain pages.

The story is clunky in its narrative and transitions but I'll give it a few more issues to see how it works. RB Silva makes it better to follow for now.

I liked it but is it really a conclusion?

It s not bad but not great either. I keep getting hyped by Cates and then i read the issues and they are fine and good on their own but the double edge story telling and the extreme hype are not helping the reading experience for me. I will ride it out until issue 6 and see then but my hopes are heading in the wrong direction. Shaw is great on art.

This issue is a bit weird and off in its composition. I see what Chip is trying to convey. It is a fact that prisons don't rehabilitate most of its populations and a lot do go back in. But the way Zdarsky is working it in doesn't gel for me. Also I was wondering how Matt was to get out of prison and the way it happened was weak. Nothing learned and nothing was worth it. Elektra's parts were much better and that is not saying much. Landini did a nice job! I hope we get back to form and finish this run strong.

It's not bad but man this arc is running on fumes with many threads just moving haphazardly unlike earlier in the run. I get it, we are going into Devil's Reign so we wrap some things up and set other things but it feels disjointed. The art by Garcia was OK and didn't work for me so it took away from my enjoyment.

It's a decent read. Nothing ground breaking from Ahmed but the way Matt is already back was too quick and the previous run stuff feels brushed under the carpet too quick. Good premise but after so many repetitive exorcisms, I need something else to hook me and this story just doesn't have it. What it has though is great art. Kuder is fantastic as always and he shines in this book with some sweet coloring from Aburtov. Also Farid Karami is a future star. His art is way too good and he will shine in the future. Ultimately art can only do so much without real meat to the story.

It's a tie in issue. Keeps the story going slowly toward the final. Nice art!

Moving the story along....slowly. Duggan had me with Adsit.

It's ok. Nic Klein's art is on point. Skottie will have to get better. The back up story wasn't good. Again the art here saves it but the writing is missing the mark.

It's OK. It's losing me a bit but still onboard.

It was an OK ending. Wong has something here and I hope she gets time to work on her writing and build but I'm off for now and I'll check on the trades later. Coccolo is fantastic and I hope to see more from.

It was OK. Cates didn't deliver a proper story or even a hint as to why we're here but he spends more time with the King contemplating Rome which i just don't buy at all. That part took away from the emotion Cates was going for with all of the carnage. Too bad i had high hopes. Unfortunately Olivetti's art isn't his best here. He's going for a different style and it just didn't work for me. He's still very good but somehow didn't match his greatness of past. I will continue to read and see where Donny takes us and i have faith in him but this wasn't good.

It's OK. I would like this as a daredevil book the hype of an event is not helping. Checchetto is keeping my interest!

It's fine as an issue but the motions are a bit mechanic. The art is amazing.

Good but I think this normal arc would have been more enjoyable as a tight one instead of an event spread out all over. I found myself not caring about many characters here. I'll see what happens in the relaunch and reassess. Checchetto and Menyz are good as always!

Brisson does enough to make it work. Still not sold on kid cable but the cliffhanger keeps me in. Now Pepe Larraz isn't the artist here and it shows. He did the layouts but the pencils weren't his. Too bad, since he's the main reason i enjoyed the previous chapters. We can't even get a mini series with the same artist?

This felt like a letdown especially when I know what Duggan is capable of. The start was very promising but then it just kept going down hill and ended sloppily. Let's hope it's better next time. Werneck's art is always beautiful but some panels are very rough like when Nimrod gets spit on with amber by Krakoa. While that's a dumb premise anyway, Werneck's very rough art makes it way too cartoony and it falls very flat. Werneck is a new artist and I do hope he works on these aspects of his art. He still deliver amazing stuff like Polaris's ending page.

Duggan and Werneck saved their best for last. It's a low bar but kudos for somewhat making it more cohesive than the previous mess. Duggan started well with his X-Men run but the end of and the Fall of X issues were a disappointment. Still I'm glad Werneck delivered some pretty nice panels and splash pages here to salvage something out of this. Shout out to Caselli coming out of the bullpen to deliver some crisp pages at the end. Last stop is almost here and I'm ready to leave the X-Men behind for a while.

The idea is good but the execution is lacking. Slott needs to get going here. The art on this book is not helping. Pichelli to Caselli to leon in 2 issue is too much. Caselli is great as always but Leon is lacking in detail which made the transition jarring.

Better but still flailing around to catch a narrative. Silva is always an upgrade on art. Slott is usually better at breather issues but I'm still waiting for a bigger picture here.

More of the same at trying to juggle many subplots that flail around trying to make a picture but nothing that grips my attention so far. Slott needs to figure out his stuff quick because this book is not fun anymore and needs proper direction. Silva was better than the previous issue with better executed and detailed compositions. Javier Rodriguez is always a nice bonus.

Great art from Silva! Slott is gonna Slott so some things land well and others are hard to believe. We'll see how this shakes out in the future.

OK! Reckoning War needs to shake things up or I might be done with this run. Slott is fine as an FF writer and he knows his stuff but I need more than fine. We are settings things up for years now but the payoff is just not there. Classic Slott storytelling. Not bad but not great either!

It's not bad and has enjoyable parts but it's crowded in certain spots and why on earth is the Cormorant appearing out of thin air. The absence from issue 25 to issue 43 just felt unearned and an excuse to bring Doom into the fray. Slott fills the deck with many actors then has trouble juggling the endings so we'll see how he makes this disjointed story into a coherent end. Rachael Stott and Andrea Di Vito worked well together and I couldn't distinguish between the two but the art needs to get better and crisper but I assume that comes with time and practice although time is not on the side of artists at Marvel.

It was a good send off. Slott does a soft landing with his ideas and give the next team a lot to work with although it feels like we have so many wasted ideas, threads and moments from these past 4 years. Slott did OK and I enjoyed most of his run but I'm ready for a big idea and a cosmic minded writer to take the reigns. Farid Karami's art was good and he has a good grasp on anatomy and action scenes. He delivered some nice visuals that looked nice with Aburtov's vibrant colors!

It's got all of the usual FF story elements. A first issue with some setup that works against it. Some classic feel story that includes #s and meme references don't make it a 21st century comic book. So it's off and mismatched as far as the writing goes. Neal Adams has some brilliant pages mixed with some off pages but not enough to take away from it. It's OK.

Most times people complain that stories are stretched out to a snails pace but here it's done way too quick. I'm trying to stick with this book but it's inconsistent especially the art which was all over the place.

It was OK. Not my cup of tea. The Allreds made it worth the read. I guess I'm skipping next year's new series.

A concept that has been done before so I'll hold judgement for now but how many times do I have to see one more soul not willing to move to the afterlife story with many caretakers' team ups straight out of the futuristic 80s. Flaviano is absolutely dialed in and his art is crisp, clean and tight lined or muddied when it's suited. We'll see what the twist is but this is a decent start for a good comic to a new reader but nothing ground breaking to someone that has consumed other similar stories.

I like this series but I'm still not 100% in. I might bail on this soon if that last page reveal goes as I expect it to go. Too bad because the last issue was so good.

Not essential at all. Al Ewing and Cates stories are good but the other two were clunky and murky maybe by design but it didn't land right for me. Art was good too and nothing spectacular.

Chugging along. Not great but not bad either. Good all around comic book but totally skippable event.

This issue as a finale for the last annihilation event is surely a rushed mess with very few merits. Dormammu was never the big bad guy after all....I get it Ewing but it didn't land as well as he wanted and that gets me to the second point which is yet again another GOTG run down the sink. It was very promising and interesting but didn't connect well with people I guess and I don't blame them. At least it was better than Cates's mess. RIP....I'll see you when GOTG-3 comes out.

What if Squadron Supreme/Mephisto story that builds on what Aaron was playing with years ago in the Avengers book before that went down the toilet. This is the only reason I'm reading this to get closure on that angle of the story that went nowhere for 30 issues of nonsense....did I mention the Avengers book was crap...yeah because they stopped that story and dragged the teasing for years then made an event of it called Heroes Reborn. We'll see if that was worth it?? So far the narrative has been done before many times but I'll let that go and enjoy the next chapter. McGuinness, Morales and Wilson are wonderful together which enhances the story a lot.

At this point I am done expecting a proper narrative and just taking this for what it is: fun nonsense that's trying to make sense. This one actually did better and made me want to continue with the story even as we are missing too much information. This could have benefited from being a 12 story arc on the Avengers book instead of a cash grab that it is. Federico Vicentini is phenomenal here and I loved his art on ASM. The art made the narrative so much better. McGuiness, Morales and Wilson on the back up are tight as ever.

Continuing on the same crazy path as already established, this issue feels somewhat crazier and better even if it suffers from the same problem which is the world building that needs to happens as the issue unrolls and that is very hard to do. Could have been much better as an Avengers series with room to breath and build the Squadron Supreme properly but alas we take what we can get I guess. Good and fun take from Aaron on the idea of a manipulated "Hero" who really is a sociopath on a rampage. Stokoe is outstanding as always and I'm happy I got to witness his crazy detailed art here.

This should have worked much better than it did and I'm not sure why exactly. It had all the elements I was waiting for to drop but maybe that's the problem. It didn't bring enough new angles to the story or to these characters for me. It just showcases the struggles with Sinister and how much worse Emma can get but we already knew all of this. But above all of this the story has a problem because they're all bad here so instead of making Alpha Sinister the core of the story he is diluted and spit back out through the other characters tainted by his DNA. Don't get me wrong Sinister deserves this and more but Gillen doesn't land it as well as I thought it could be.

Has its moments but a bit of mismatch work stitching threads that don't work well together. This has me worried because it's clear that he has to prep for the Gala and for Judgement day but it feels forced for me. Maybe the artists fill-in Bandini threw me off too but she did well enough.

I've not enjoyed this issue as much as others I see. The mechanics were a bit too mechanical lol. Maybe it's my dislike of X-Force and the way that series progressed and handled Piotr/Colossus. I'm getting tired of this stuff. Maybe the fall of X will be a nice way to escape the X-men world after 4 years.

It's fine. Fall of X is not off to a great start but we'll see.

I feel like I'm wondering through the desert myself trying to find a way to enjoy this series again. Guillen is skilled in his storytelling with Exodus and Xavier but it's not hooking me. I'll see what happens but Fall of X isn't doing it for me. Edit: I forgot to mention Paco Medina on art was nice and he gives Selene that beautifully menacing look.

This is getting in WTF territory story wise. Duggan does not have or relay much clarity for motives of characters which leaves me with an empty feeling reading this 3rd chapter. The art saves this issue really. Let's hope it gets better in the next one.

It's enjoyable, has great dialogue and the art is fantastic but I'm not sure why I'm not 100% invested in this Korvac plot. We'll see where Cantwell goes.

It's not bad and the art is amazing! Well It's better than the previous one and Hellcat gets a good treatment but I fear Cantwell overcorrected with Tony Stark. At least it didn't work in some spots as intended. Mind you I enjoyed it, just small things that's all. Cafu and D'armata are banging on all cylinders!!

Story is OK with Mosaic. Plot advancement needs him to succeed. Art is what killed this chapter.

Great premise and great art but I'm not sold on it yet.

It's not bad. Some stories are better than others.

This book isn't doing well here. Wolverine from Soule is good but Claremont needed the full 20 pages to tell nightcrawler's story which was confusing. Venom was just a waste of time and space.

It was good but not a great ending. It was clunky at times. Did i miss them saying it was the Sentry machine that caused it? I read it in the intro and it felt underwhelming. The art was good but the transition was jarring. Plus Forman has a mixed bag of great shots mixed in with sub-par ones. It's not as well produced as it should've been.

Good story but the rushed/atrocious art is not helping.

This series lost so much of its momentum. Those first few issues were pure gold. Zdarsky's finish is good enough but isn't very satisfying. Too bad. The art isn't helping. Ramon Perez...you can do better than this. I've seen it. Anyway we'll see what happens with the reunion.

This shouldn't be a 5 issue mini series. It needs more. MacKay has done it before and can do it again. Carratu's art is still raw but good.

It's an enjoyable ride from MacKay and I don't like what's happening on ASM so that's MacKay doing alright here. Disconnect and enjoy is all you can do here but the whole MJ powers premise is weak. Still enough here to like. Carratu's art is good but still raw.

This is just weird and I know what King is trying to portray but it just feels off.

If I didn't buy all the issues, I would have quit already so here goes nothing. Better than the previous one but still a weird setup story wise as I'm waiting for the hammer to fall. The series is dragging its moment and pulling punches to where? Every time I think we're turning the corner , it just goes back to where it started. I'm not sure but I guess we'll keep reading.

This issue would get a 9 a month ago but Marvel dropped the ball. Too bad!

It's OK. Waiting for Hickamn and Reis because it's night and day. These books should be on a monthly release schedule.

It's not bad. Good topic but somehow I just wasn't hooked. I'm not sure if I'll continue reading this book. Too many good books out there to stick around here. Is it ending with number 13? Because that would make it easier.

It was OK overall but I was left feeling like I missed important information from previously occurred events here because I never followed Way of X or Legion of X. Too bad because it had good concepts.

Way too rushed and many plot points suffer in confusion and characters go by the wayside. But overall it works as Spurrier shows a corrupted world where a religion is hijacked by Mother Righteous's cult. The jumps are way too fast. But I can't really ask for more issues because then it just gets bogged down and stretched unless Al Ewing is in charge. Andrea Di Vito did great work with his illustrations of space, worlds and characters!

This format and series of ideas don't really work well. Too much time in between but not interesting enough to linger about. The writers can only do so much to stuff it in and rush to deliver forced endings. Vitti was good on art.

Interesting premise and great art from Sara Pichelli. Orlando's way of laying the narrative feels off for me.

It was enjoyable for a basic comicbook story with cool ideas from Ryan North not reaching their potential. It had good moments but wrapped up in a predictable and unfulfilling manner. Francesco Mobili's art is fantastic although when he is colored it looks super dark or maybe that's a print issue. The covers were below par and Mobili should've had better covers for this because his art is the best thing about this.

Much better this time around although I remain apprehensive of how certain threads will get resolved by Spencer but I'm still on the train. At least Bagley and company were on art duty for most of the issue. The art shifts later on but not as jarring as previous issues. I still wish one artist gets one issue....what a novel concept! Also whoever the artists (Carlos Gomez?) that did the Sin Eater pages was great and they need to do a whole issue by himself because that page by the dumpster was on point. The inks and colors were very well put together!

I don't read Spawn so I was a bit lost in this world but McFarlane did alright overall. His narration gives an illusion of meaning to the story but it's not as well structured. Mike Del Mundo is the star here with his painted art and it was great!

It's still OK. It's a fun little story that requires a lot of side books to keep up. Not ideal which makes half the book recaps of what's happened in other books that you didn't read because you can't print more money. Still waiting on it to deliver something better otherwise it's a waste.

Great story pushing Spider-man to the brink of a meltdown where Deadpool is the voice of reason. Great art is a big plus. The problem is the 2-3 month delays that take away from following the story.

The Dennis Hopeless Spider-Woman run was amazing and coming from that to this just isn't doing it for me. It's way too convoluted for its own good. We're going way out out of our way to make it harder than it is. Why?? Carla Pacheco wants to torture Jessica and then redeem her later but it's just done in a weird way. This is not a bad comic book, it just isn't a great one. Pere Perez is great in his dynamic art but it's Mattia De Iulis that saves the day here with his amazing art. I would probably read this MESS of a book if he was the main artist.

It's not bad but i'll reserve full judgement until i get more answers on ASM 22. Who in the world is behind all of this?

Horror movies are never an interest for me so when this issue started to toe the line and give me vibes of cliches, I became worried especially with the forced sexual encounters between characters. Just weird! But the art is beyond phenomenal from Mattia de Lulis who colors it in such a mesmerizing way that it's quite unique. The art alone makes this story worth following but I'm still intrigued by what's happening.

Again the narrative overall suffers from the second story and art sticking out of left field here. Weird?? If Mattia de Lulis wasn't on art I wouldn't even think of continuing with this odd book. The guy is so good with his layers and lighting. A beautifully unique style.

It went off course with Mosley trying to build and link threads but it was off. Still a fun read but Reilly is the superglue here with really fresh and classic art that is very pleasing to the eye. And oh does Bellaire do him justice with her colors!

It's a good comic book idea with many elements used and abused by many stories from movies to comic books. I enjoyed it for what it is but many times it's trying to go hard as Cates likes to do but that takes me out of it. Ryan Stegman delivers his best work since Venom and JP Mayer inks it wonderfully ending up with carpal tunnel in the process :). Sonia Oback's colors were also very good. I hope it's around for the people that enjoy it but I'm out. P.S. I hope Donny Cates all the best and I hope he seeks the help he needs because there many elements that he's struggling with that come through his work.

It's OK. Fun but a whole unrelated story. I guess I'll drop it and pick it back up when Cates and Stegman come back.

Basic story yet still good from Al Ewing but I'm not really intrigued by this side of the Goblin nonsense. Roge Antonio did fine as fill in artist but Cafu is part of the backbone as to why I liked the previous issues. Also D'Armata's coloring especially the greens were weird. Not sure if he didn't adapt well to Antonio's art or printing issue or he was trying something new? Come back Cafu after you ice your arm.

It's a necessary story dump to let us know how it all came about. While it's needed it didn't feel well executed. Brisson moves around and wants to show Stryfe's conflict and his side of the hunt and yes well we get it but not as effective as i thought it would be. On to the next chapter. Couceiro handles the art well but i do miss burnett's unique style which has much more flow and fits the darker tone.

Percy is keeping the pace fast but maybe a tad bit too fast for me and the ending didn't work well. Either way it was enjoyable but the team up was OK with some good moments. Cassara's art makes the book much better for me. Nothing against Bazaldua, it's just not a good fit.

It's OK. I'm losing interest fast with yet another invasion. Cool ideas from Percy but it's hits and misses. It's the art that takes me out of it. Bazaldua's work here is better than previous issues but man you can't match Cassara's work.

It was OK. Nothing to do with X-force. This is a wolverine story with some cards hidden for further development so the main story suffers. And since I'm not reading the solo wolverine book, I feel like I'm missing pieces here?? Bogdanovic is good! The slow X of Swords drip is killing the hype but I'm waiting for the hammer to drop.

It was a good read but the lack of Cassara's art and the main focus on Kid Omega didn't help. The art is a conduit for the story and without proper indicators to navigate the story, you are left to guess as you read which can be frustrating especially when facial expressions are just weird and don't give you clues. Garry Brown's sequential art/faces need to be improved but he is still talented and you can see his craft in the making. Ben Percy doesn't get a pass here because relying Kid Omega to carry this a whole arc is challenging and you need to add more for me to care. Good luck! I'll be here when Joshua Cassara returns.

It's a weird issue. It feels like I missed something between the Hellfire Gala and this issue? Anyway this book is too slow. It has fallen on my X-Men books ranking as Hellions is kicking butt and getting somewhere while X-Force has slowed down too much. Gill isn't bad but Cassara is half the team for me so anytime he is not illustrating, it drops. Props to Gil and GuruEfx for keeping it as close as possible.

It's a good drama from Duggan overall but doesn't deliver on its cliffhangers. Last issue he introduced enough interesting points like Knowhere that gets resolved in one panel here and is completely wasted. It's just inconsistent and borderline disappointing. Again many other threads are started but will they deliver? Not sure. Caselli is great as usual and only enhances the narrative.

This continues to be your getaway X-Men book with ideas that start great and quickly go somewhere required by plot or Knowhere (literally). Caselli's art is great as always.

Not a bad side quest. Noto is great on art but he can't draw Ms. marvel to save his life.

Enjoyable X-men book with the usual meat and potatoes from Duggan and great art from Cassara.

As a standalone it's fine but a wasted side quest that really goes nowhere. We can develop this much better. These things read better collected anyway. The last page won't even be answered for more than a month. Cassara on art is money as always and I love his Doom. Gracia's colors from past to present were great too!

It's fun but needs a lot more than nostalgia and nice art to keep going.

Mojo is just not that interesting at all. If the art wasn't fantastic, this arc would have caused me to drop it. Molina needs to be on a top tier book NOW!

Immortal X-Men Redux is what this is. It's much needed to follow Rise of Powers of X but this could have been part of that book. Maresca on art was very nice.

Gillen continues his hurry up offense after the 2 minute warning being down 45 points and we get a lot of narrative dumping a bit too late for this lost Krakoa game. He does a very good job since this is a continuation of Immortal X-Men but this should be part of the main line at POWERS of X or Immortal and is a bit too late to cram it here especially when we were time wasting as the X-Office dragged its feet for almost a year. Maresca does a great job on art with Blee's colors being right on.

This was fine but felt I was re-reading parts I already did with Ororo since similar beats were done in Immortal. Camagni on art was good.

Al Ewing's writing is great and he makes use of the history of Arakko but it's the setup that gets to me especially for an event that is not looking very exiting as we get closer to it. I might have to switch to tpb in order to enjoy the full thing collected and deal with spoilers. Fall of X has a lot riding on it so we'll see. Art was good from Camagni.

Ending didn't fit considering how good the previous issues were. I'm off the train, this is my stop.

It's a good read from Gillen but unstable on its own. It is a link to the next and can't carry the weight alone. Schiti and Gracia are doing some nice work which makes it all read much better.

It's an interesting read but the jumping around is all over for me even when making it personable especially when absorbing the different points of view. I obviously have to re-read this to get a better idea of what I think. The art is great and some pages by Schiti are wonderful but many other panels are not clear enough and too rushed. Still one of the better events we had in years.

It's good. It was saved in the last few pages. Obviously the art is great but the story by Cates is a bit inconsistent. I'll hold full judgement to the end.

Great start. Duggan using some points from the movies to bring you in (not my favorite) before adding some of his zany sauce plus add Kuder's beautiful art and you got a promising story.

Good issue but i don't think Peter would have went for it that easily no matter how much Ben went through and he wants to help him.

Immonen and Slott work well together and the story flows with good developments. Camuncoli's story with Slott is also good and very promising. But the rest is filler. This is not going to help this book get any new readers.

Great follow up and this run is looking good. Story and art compliment each other.

Nice issue and great art but it isn't a proper conclusion. Slott is always setting up the next thing that it takes away from the now.

Good but the setup for what's next is always Slott's undoing. He seemed to do it much better in his early spidey work. It takes away from the Zodiac story not that we needed more from that one but it comes and goes just as quickly leaving me with very pretty art from Immonen/Grawbadger/Gracia to admire and looking forward to the next issue.

Enjoyable side issue that doesn't advance the plot much. Art by Hawthorne that's easy on the eyes. I especially liked the vibrant colors by Marte Gracia.

It's a good chapter. Moves the needle a bit more but still inching there ever so slowly. Look it's an enjoyable read but nothing outstanding. But to Spencer's credit, I'm here and still here because of his previous writing in the build up. Sandoval is a great match to Ramo's style as they both have weird angles on their silhouettes. Fits well.

Much better than the first 2099 related outings. I'm still skipping the mini-event because it's not grabbing my attention at all mainly because we've seen this before and it's stretched too much. I get that Spencer is laying the ground work for some stuff later on but his structure did not work well in the last issue. There is enough here to keep me interested but my enjoyment comes from Gleason's art that brings the narrative to life.

It's alright and enjoyable.

Enjoyed it!

It's a good setup up issue. Hopefully Spencer can do a better one this time around because Hunted was underwhelming. We'll see how Kindred's story shakes out since it's pretty much the whole kit and caboodle of his run. The art was good with Jacinto but Oliveira was not up to the standard of ASM. This books double/triple ships regularly and sometimes getting artists to deliver 24-30 issues a year is quite a demanding. Even with Ottley and Gleason they can't cover it.

I enjoyed it and was turning the pages in anticipation so Spencer did his job well there and Gleason delivered some tremendous detailed work (Even though his big headed Spidey in some panels has yet to grow on me but everything else is fantastic). But I can't help but feel underwhelmed at the end. I hope there is more to it than that, so we'll see. Two years in and Spencer has not delivered one arc that defines his run yet. It's good and had great moments in sporadic issues but I hope he can put together a full arc/story that resonates with me but maybe it's just me.

It's good but doesn't appear to be necessary. Vicentini is pretty good!

I'm following along even as we crowd this thing but we'll see how Spencer and Rosenberg bring it in with so many balls in the air. Vicentini on art duty is great as his style makes this much more enjoyable.

A quick read that leans heavily on the Harry Osborn resurrection from way back when. I remember it but not all of its details. Obviously Spencer will address One More Day and there are no winks to be had anymore but will he fix it? I don't believe anything until it happens. These next few issues will be immensely crucial. Bagley's art is classic as ever but Dell's inks made it look like an old sequence which it was so that worked well. And all of the green hues from Delgado were nice too.

The best LR issue and actually quite an important chapter for this story so finally we end the LRs on a meaningful chapter and Vicentini actually delivered nice pencils for this one that helped the intense drama. Miyagawa just doesn't fit the tone of this book. Very hard to wrap up the threads in one issue but we'll see next.

Well it didn't deliver the end it hyped so much for 10+ issues. As a chapter to an ongoing story it was great from Spencer! It had the drama build up, the beautiful Gleason art but it ended on a bit of a whimper where Kindred just disappears in a tiny panel with some suspected magic from Norman/Kingpin that somehow took care of the Ultra powerful Kindred that couldn't be killed?? We'll see where it goes next but it's a bit of disappointment. I have called it many issues ago. The ASM board/editors just won't let the OMD story get fixed naturally over a 10 issue story arc, they wanna milk it for the next 50+ issues for another 2 years if they ever resolve it. Mephisto is all over the Marvel landscape right now and is going to be a prominent element in the next big event sometime in the next year or two so that holds up ASM in a drag until we get there. At least that's my guess for now.

Again as a chapter in the Last Remains story, it's good with an 8 rating and worth the price of admission and even has classic Bagley art to give it an awesome look to boot but the problem is this story got us nowhere near the payoff following the teasing that happened for 10+ issues and going back to 50+ total issues. This is not necessarily Spencer's fault as I would expect the editors/CB/Quesada to have a heavy input in the ASM book especially with OMD. Furthermore it appears ASM is now a weekly book so you gotta stretch those stories to death.

The suit is not good and aesthetically unappealing in my opinion but the story around it is good and has potential no matter how many times we've done this, I still fall for it. We'll see!

It's a fun issue especially with some of the dynamics but after such a great issue last time it's tough to keep it going. Vicentini is a great match for this book and his style is a nice addition to ASM. I hope he is part of the rotation.

It's nice. Kelly Thompson does a nice job here although disjointed sometimes, it works for now. I need more though and we need to get there sooner than later. I'm all for slow building but give it some substance and I'll ride with you. I'm a big fan of Sara Pichelli but her art was mixed between outstanding pages that were a 10 and then some panels just felt off and just not the same level. Maybe her health issues are still bothering her and some days are just better than others. But Woodard's colors killed it.

This one actually worked for all the distance we endured to get here, it shouldn't have but it did.

Great attempt that somehow worked. The beginning all the way to the second/third part and at the end were tight and beautiful. It got crazy loopy and stupid at the middle but I think Spencer and Duggan pulled off the ending. Also can Smallwood do like 100 issues straight of Spider-Man I'll buy 2 of each!!

It's good and I did enjoy reading it after letting it sit for a while. Wells is good with his narrative and words so it comes through easily. Romita Jr is consistent so far and Hanna inking/Menyz coloring makes it all look good!

It's good but these issues nowadays read much better as tpb or at least 2 or 3. Romita Jr Hanna and Menyz are about the same so it's consistent whether you like or not. I like it although I would take McGuiness in a heart beat.

Not bad and actually has all the ASM books elements to work for me so I'm enjoying it. I just wish this 6 month gap mystery isn't hovering around too long because once you hype something and drag it forever then you don't deliver, people just stop caring all together. Romita Jr. and Hanna/Menyz on art just deliver that classic familiar look which works well with these stories. It could be better but it could also be worse. You either like it or you don't.

It's good enough but just feels like reading a run I did 10 years ago and forgot the details. It works as an ASM book but nothing earth shattering. Comfort food for 12 minutes.

This actually was good after the previous 2 not making me care. Zeb wells nails the urgency with Peter and MJ and actually does a classic setup up here that works. I know the bar is low but here we are. John Romita Jr. is his usual self and does well enough to make it good. No kids yet so we're in the clear ;)

Good issue but ASM has way too many stupid ideas. Trying to keep them and justify them in continuity is becoming a pain lol. Gleason on art helped a lot here as he is a great artist!

It got better and I enjoyed REK-RAP for what he is and it was fun to make him a 60s/70s Lee/Romita ASM style narrator for his dumb outbursts that fit well with the fun story line. ASM and Wells do much better when they stay away from MJ/Felicia and what comes with 60 years of continuity so why is this an ASM book? I don't know? I'm just here for the amazing art from McGuiness. It's fantastic and fits the tone so well. Ed McGuiness is a professional and you can see it from the details to the inks. Menyz colors it all wonderfully!

Dumb fun story and it makes REK-RAP a great 60s/70s type comic book sidekick and narrator for his dumb yet very logical storytelling. Again this works because of the amazing art from McGuiness. Any other artist and it falls flat. Gang War seems forced but what else is new? This whole run is a forced existence that's dragging me along.

It felt safe for me. I love the art and i liked the story. It's the beginning so we'll see what happens.

Good story and great art but the pace needs to pick up......i already said that last issue....seriously you can give everyone time to shine and develop but 3 issues of different angles to the same story can feel slow.

It's nice. Heavy on the nostalgia. Great art!!

Good start with nice art.

Soule's story moves along with no major shockwaves but Aco illustrates it all beautifully. Facial expressions were off in many panels but his panels layout and compositions are a thing of beauty!

This story feels important but the delivery is lacking. It feels crowded and slow. I like the art by Paco Medina and Ed McGuiness and what Aaron is trying to do but he needs to figure it out sooner than later.

The story got too big and while the last issue was great, this finale was rushed and kinda not satisfactory. Aaron had a good idea that took way too long to explain and was hurried at the end. It's still a good book with great art. McGuiness is good as usual and i'm glad Medina is here to make it mesh without being too jarring of a transition. Medina is doing a fine job here!! Also Morales and Vlasco's inks looked tight. Curiel's colors looked beautiful and it helped that he colored the whole issue.

OK this is a much better direction than the last few outings. Still weirdly put together but I'll hold judgement when the dots are connected. I hope Aaron doesn't just lollygag for arcs at a time because the momentum just dies and the whole thing becomes pointless. I mean we still haven't seen the Squadron Supreme of America for more than 6 months now? What's the point of spending so much time on something just to drop it and not hint at it for more than 6 months and counting??

While the ideas are great and the art is amazing, it's a very frustrating book. This book is moving at a snail's pace. We get it: Mephisto's up to no good and we've been hinting at it for years now. Now we'll spend another 6 issues playing with the phoenix and hint at Mephisto some more. No Coulson and No Squadron Supreme and no resolution to anything, we're just brewing threads for 38 issues with no pay off whatsoever. And now Marvel says this book has hints for its 2021 slate so of course I'm sticking with this because I must like punishment.

I immensely enjoyed the first half of the comic book where Jason Aaron Aaron Kuder brought a great story to life That I think needed a bit more time to breath even if I criticized this series before for taking way too much liberty running around. The second half was way too quick and the leap (pun intended) for Carol Danvers came out of the blue. Aaron Kuder's art is so good and he is a great strength for this series. Guru eFx on colors was right on.

Nyx's story is good even as present day story gets lost a bit. For me this wasn't as interesting as i thought it would be. The art is nice and the story is good but i was hoping for a bit more. Hope they pick it back up next week!

It's better than the last one but felt disjointed at times. The art by Medina and Aburtov is phenomenal and couldn't have been better but the story while succeeds initially at getting your attention with Euphoria's scenes of soul searching purpose, it quickly goes sideways. It's good but feels disjointed at the core especially at the long island scenes. Hope they deliver a special finale but I'm not holding my breath.

I like some Mark Millar books and dislike others. It's a mixed bag. Trying to wrap my head around who the characters are since I didn't read all the series and definitely didn't like Nemesis. Still early but looks like it's a straight forward Good vs Bad so far. Pepe Larraz can illustrate the phone book and it'll look fantastic so I'm all about the art.

The effing killings continue but at some point we gotta get this train on track.....right? Anyway still interesting read. But for me this is a book for Larraz to flex his art muscles and he destroys.

Nice work from Millar. I did enjoy this issue with all of its angles but my unfamiliarity with the prehistoric futuristic (lol) characters hindered my full enjoyment. It would have added more layers if I read all these stories beforehand but I also have kids to feed and you can only read so much Millar before you have to pause. What can you say about Pepe Larraz? He is phenomenal and exquisite in his work, maybe the best of this generation. Giovanna Niro colored his work beautifully.

Good start and I don't care for Knull but this tie in is intriguing and doesn't stray from what came before it. Villa's art is good but needs polishing in some panels.

I'm glad I tried this issue after not caring much last time because the story is well told by MacKay here and I liked it much better. Dowling's art is really good here and it has grown on me. Reber's colors/tones between the 2 different stories was well done! 2 things: 1) Yes the wrap up is quick but feels appropriate with the story. 2) The last page is out of nowhere and adds almost nothing to this issue for me so I'm not sure why it is there. We'll see going forward but I will add this to my pull and find out.

The world building is great by Coates but this will read better in one collected volume. It's though to keep track when things are happening in different spots and you forget what happened 30 days ago. Walker and Paitreau are great together although i miss Acuna!!

We're here and I can't say that it's a fulfilling issue as it lays out what happened but it's fun and some great art from Walker! Coates isn't there yet in my opinion when it comes to making the heavy beats land right. But I'll keep going since it's still enjoyable.

Again this story is moving along but somehow all is mismatched. I still feel like I should have waited and read it all in collected form to enjoy it better. Acuna is perfect again!

I skipped an issue and came back and it's like I almost missed nothing. So I'm back on as this issue got my interest but the pace is a way too slow sometimes. Also Acuna's pages and cover were fantastic!

Good ending albeit rushed but it delivers an enjoyable read with promise for a future event worth following. I have to give it up for Pepe Larraz and Marte Gracia they were fantastic on art and made this average story look beautiful.

Fun at times and a bit dull at times but does enough to keep me interested. Noto's art is wonderful and the difference here. Without Noto I will not read this book. PERIOD.
