 Bitter Root #1 Mar 18, 2020

All I asked was that they keep up the pace of the action and they did so.

This is more like what I expected from this series. A little character development, a little action, and some absurd Deadpool just for fun.

Beautiful art as usual, but more exposition than I wanted. The writer was cramming in a lot of character development into the final issue 😑.

Getting better but still feel we should have gotten more story for the issue.

A solid and exciting issue.

 Avengers (2018) #24 Oct 31, 2019

An interesting expansion to the new norm for the X-Men. Very curious about Apocalypse angle but not convinced why Jubilee is there. Art was just beautiful.

A fun geek-out issue with exciting action layouts and cool villain designs. Also some new insight on Riri's past and present "condition". Would have been a 10 but this certain family connection has been done a hundred times before.

That's two issues without Black Panther doing or saying anything interesting 😒

Incredible art as usual and it's good to see some character development out of Spencer. However, not knowing the rules/lore of this world it can feel like just making things up as it goes. I don't know what people can usually do so I don't know what to be impressed by.

A fun but fairly light issue. Nice art, but cliffhanger not so great when it's on the cover.

Not to be taken to seriously, just a fun all over the place issue to play around with different ideas.

Pretty good art and story showcasing the new status quo and power set. Fun cliffhanger.

Talk about a guilty pleasure, it was absolutely ridiculous and I enjoyed every page of it. Face paced and great cliffhanger.

Everything I was hoping issue six would be I got in issue five. I am definitely on the hype train.

Great art and another fun cliffhanger but just short of a nine.

Beautiful art, but was the turns at the end that pushed it to a nine.

Another suicide mission comic but Pepe's art makes it worth it.

Only get this comic if you like: 1. Panel after panel of gorgeous and fast paced action 2. Charming and thoughtful banter 3. A satisfying amount of plot development

Great issue, great art but man do I have some big questions! The twist was worth it.

Wow, that was an intense page-turner. The art was pretty good as well. Fun learning the rules of her new powers.

Another issue of beautiful artwork and good pacing. Riri's lack of social skills is consistent and it is interesting to see how various Marvel characters react to it. A pretty good but not great cliffhanger.

Excellence. Conversations were meaningful, the stakes were high, the pacing was perfect. Great art from facial expressions to action sequences.

It was excellent through out, I can not wait for the next issue.

An exciting and beautiful issue. Luciano Vecchio is quickly becoming a favorite of mine.

Finally the pace of the issue is picking up with good action. Actual tense moments and real cost.

It brings the last ten years of comics in perspective and leaves with a cliffhanger that excites you for what's to come.

Love the art, moves plot forward.

What you want from a monthly comic. Resolution of story line while pushing the plot and the series forward. Good balance of action and dialogue, and still love the art.

 Miles Morales: Spider-Man (2018) #5 Apr 24, 2019

This is the first issue I didn't love. Too much of an information dump by the villain all at once. Would have been better to spread his backstory out over issues. Still great art however.

Great action and drama

They have found a winning formula of good art/plot/dialogue/pace and action, and it's working for them.

Very interesting issue from page one to the end. Well written one shot with great art.

Not one dull panel

Great artwork throughout, from the action sequences to the faces of the characters. What I enjoyed most is the unfolding, intriguing plot that's developing. It was a well paced and exciting issue that left me wanting the next issue sooner than later.

Such a feast for the eyes! It was the last part to the story so the action came quickly and kept going. Finally a comic worth the price, more like these please.

 X-23 (2018) #2 Nov 30, 2018

Well written and good art. Some panels were a bit too wordy and, of course, I could have used some more action. Overall a great establishing issue with good pace.

Intense but little action.

Geeking out fun from cover to cover.

I enjoyed every panel, enjoyed Deadpool's very self aware humor to the comic. It would have been a perfect 10 but the writer forgot to mention that Black Panther hired Deadpool as a Merc for hire in Doom War.

Loved: Character design/ world building/ art/ storyline/ pacing/ ending. I wish this was a twelve part story.

 Spider-Geddon #1 Oct 11, 2018

Like the art, story is same old.

I would have given it a 9 but there are too many unanswered questions and no signs of them getting back to them.

Best single issue I've read in months. Great art, enthralling story.

One of Coates better issues this far, pacing and dialogue was engaging.

Not as exciting but still very interesting.

Great art, great pace, great cliffhanger

Exciting issue, sometimes the action was unclear.

Looks pretty, enjoyed seeing Ghost Rider but not much happening. The font in the word bubbles spoiled the twist ending.

Interesting set up.

Fun almost Saturday morning cartoon feel.

Straight to the point, very cartoon flashy.

I was going to say it has a fun loving tone . . . until the end :)

Keeping up the action, reveals and good pacing of the previous issue my hopes are renewed for this series.

Great action sequence but why so little fighting from the guest star?

Good pacing and great art.

Nice to get some background on Murrdock, although I was hoping for more twist. It reminded me of Batman Arkham Origin

Another well paced and well balanced issue. Supporting characters got developed, plenty of action, and most importantly the plot actually moved along (Bendis can go several issues sometimes with plot in neutral).

I just love Riri/ Hologram Tony banter.

Great art and fun start.

Same ol' same ol, at least the art is good.

Humor, character development, great art and action.

Could have explained the Cindy Moon connection better.

Not very friendly to readers new to the New gods, I just have believe more will be explained in following issues.

Same review again: great art, great banter but the slow plot pacing keeps it from an eight.

 Doctor Strange (2015) #18 Oct 23, 2017

Interesting intro, but it was just a intro. Stefano should do art for all of the Marvel universe.

Better than expected, it's the art that makes you forget the cliched plot.

I'm not sold on the art just yet. The end reveal was already spoiled for me but it still didn't make a ton of sense. Sam is doing his daytime Batman impression complete with young Ward and zip line wrapped around thugs. I'll give it another issue.

How could this be anything less than a ten! What a satisfying conclusion to the story arc.

It looks great and is charming, but should be collected and placed in the children section of the bookstore (online or brick and mortar). It seems like such an opportunity missed.

High paced, high stakes dopeness from beginning to end.

Just great action

Corny but fun seeing Mar-vell again.

Great art, but doing a time travel story with one character made in the 60's and another from the 10's was just a logistical nightmare.

Surprisingly good issue. I am not a GOTG fan but I enjoyed them here. Art and storylines were solid.

 Champions (2016) #12 Oct 6, 2017

Good, another misleading cover.

Good but not amazing.

Why can't every issue be like this? Fast paced, witty banter, humor, intrigue, lots of action and a cliffhanger. That's the recipe.

This what I hoped/expected when I read the pitch for Generations. Good character development, meaningful story. It provided closure while creating anticipation for where Sam and Steve go next as people. My only complaint is a common one . . . why make the comic more expensive. Just impressed by how well done and fleshed out it was for a one shot.

It accomplished its goal of creating a comic that makes you interested in a dozen storylines. Did I just see a Wakandan space force? I never figured him for a butterfly out of a coocoon type! Are they really going to give us "them" back?!? Very exciting read. Oh, I want more BC Avengers.

It had some holes in its logic that were distracting but charming all the same.

I like Bendis but this habit of stretching an idea (a flashback) out one or two whole issues is unfair to the paying customer.

This is a fill in issue done right, great dialogue and art.

Art is great as usual, but I don't like these halt the plot fill in issues.

Way to flesh out character dynamics without sacrificing a transition issue.

A nice and hopeful story but . . . Mystic Tony rather than Iron Tony Art was all over the place Story wasn't super engaging

Thought it would be a 5 but turned out to be an 8. Well written and leaves the reader curious about the future.

Great art, great banter, great suspense for a mystery, shocking ending; Defenders is climbing the ranks as one of Marvel's best monthly comics. SPOILER: It makes you wonder why no one has ever tried to just sneak up and shoot Black Cat before, she has no Spider sense or armor.

Lots of fun elements (like young Thor from Jason Aaron's earlier work on the series) make for a very fun diversion.

Another issue that deserves more than a ten.

I am equal parts sad and delighted by this issue. An exciting read from the first page to the last. I am depressed that a story with so much more to tell is ending, I give it an 11!

A fun one shot

Fun and too the point, just what a one shot should be.

Fun and well written issue, but another misleading Marvel cover. Stefano is great as usual.

This is how I like my comics. I hope it goes on far beyond the crossover event.

Great art but the issue felt all over place, like just a bunch of ideas thrown together. The fact that the cover to this issue had very little to do with the comic is annoying. Ganke and Miles' friendship and dialogue save it from a 5.

 Infamous Iron Man (2016) #11 Sep 3, 2017

A really good ending but could have used a little more explanation, wrapped up almost too neatly.

Great art and lots of fun action, what more can you ask for? Oh, and a funny Black Ant and Taskmaster scene.

A well written issue but mostly there to build momentum to next Secret Empire installment. Some funny moments and inspiring moments save it.

Plenty of fun dialogue and action.

Ok set up

A fun enough one shot

Intense and action packed, complete with twist and cool cameos.

Why is this series getting better as it's about to be cancelled? It is a rare example of a series that works well/better as a tie into an "event". I like Sam's personal struggle much more than previous storylines.

Now that's an issue 4! Moved the story along, the banter was good, but most importantly beautiful action. Would have been a 10 but no one explained how Danny instantly fixed his spine.

"Oh, it just keeps getting better, doesn't it?"

From start to finish, a beautiful and exciting issue.

A very fun and charming issue.

 Secret Empire #6 Aug 10, 2017

Oh look, heroes being heroes yeah!

Beautiful to look at, the sadness on Odinson's face was the most striking.

A character building issue of heroism when facing hopelessness

I do enjoy the intriguing mother character but I dislike paying for little morsels of plot development, should have waited for the TPB.

I love the youthfulness of the issue but would it be asking too much to get a little more super hero action, it is a comic book after all.

Getting better but still more talking heads than a comic book.

Perhaps I'm just a sucker for a good alternate universe Wolverine story but I enjoyed this issue. It would have been a ten except for the terrible guest artist in the middle.

Nearly perfect, very exciting, but felt brief.

Got a little dull in the middle but a great read.

Introduced some new ideas but still could have used some more action.

Kept my attention, good build and good reveals.

Fun action, fun dialogue, just didn't like Sam's mask.

Why was Captain Falcon so slow on the uptake? Why can't Thor Foster's hammer handle the shield? Why is Peter Parker so gullible? Why was Was being a jet? Why was the art so Terrible?

A good enough filler until the next Marvel event comes storming in.

Start Immonen has been getting better and over the past few years. I would have given it a ten but Osborne's running was weak.

Great issue, I would love to see more of Sean Izaakse and the art team.

Just Dope.

Great to see the artist back but not an exciting finale.

A little too much standing around and talking, IronHeart's appreance was just ok but I wanted more. Another fun cliffhanger but not a lot of answers.

My only problem was how easily the Phoenix was dealt with.

Every panel was a victory. Bendis' excels at the getting to know stage of a character.

Al Ewing made his very big ideas a very easy and enjoyable read.

The pacing of Riri's character development is a little faster than Bendis' 2000 Ultimate Peter Parker which is nice. Riri has a hard time confronting things and this issue gives her plenty.

You are either thrilled or upset by this "more questions than answers" issue. I have some good guesses and can't wait to see if I'm right.

Love Jonboy, good pacing.

Did a great job moving the character/plot forward

Exciting but Emma's villain turn seem too sudden and drastic. Also a bunch of people died and things just kept going.

Good issue but it did leave me with a bunch of question marks.

Now that's more like it, go straight into super hero-ing. Peter is acting like Peter. Sam is acting like a leader.

Better pacing, more hero involvement and a villain reveal.

I picked up this issue because it was a part one and it was getting good reviews. I had to go online and do some extra research to figure out what was going on.

A fun, uplifting, well paced and good looking comic book.

Good, but didn't live up to the slow build up.

Great pacing, great dialogue, great ending.

Lots of fun action/matchups. Nice twists and guest star.

I do enjoy Khary's art

Lots of butt kicking, thank you. Plus it leaves some questions to ponder.

Ninjas, much like bacon, makes everything better. Never take Stefano off this title. Nice use of the whole cast.

Awesome "Godly" issue, very bold direction. Well paced as usual.

Now that felt a little bit more like a comic book, hopefully with a significant impact on the universe.

A little better, the art saves it

Good comic book fun that leaves you anticipating the next issue.

Why is Mosaic acting like he's thirteen? Why is White Queen such a villain leader (again) amongst heroes?

Very sweet but a little thin.

How comics should be made

Beautiful to look at, the suspense is killing me.

Funny, serious, timely, good pacing, true to continuity (Miles is in another universe right now). You either love or hate Ramos art but I happen to love it.

Man, I could see that coming from a mile away.

The art and the ugly of war; could have been a nine but as usual very little action for a comic book.
