Expected allot more, probably from all the hype this series received at the start. The concept of a comic about comics is not novel. It was played with by Grant Morrison in The Multiversity. Crossover is ambitious but super slow and building up to what feels like a chliché. IMHO Geoff's art is carrying this series forward, that said will pick up the next issue and see where it goes.

Just catching up on the run. Slott is all over the place here and while the art is good I have to say Spider-Man possessed and toting guns, just plain dumb. If you have super strength, the ability to crawl walls, and shoot web. Then Why?

Conan the Barbarian has gone gray, and has magical witch head. Picked up the TPB. Seriously, it's an entertaining book and well drawn, with nods to Mike Mignola styled art. But borrowed heavily from the genre, with plenty of cliches. Maybe good for a new generation. As I say get a copy for yourself and give it a shot.

It's just ok, not great. I guess I expected more from the hype and the team that gave us that killer Venom run.

Story is just alright and moving very slow, and I find the Rek-rap character just annoying. I'm not sure reversing the Parker name was the smartest thing to do by the writer/editor. Re-krap sounds exactly like re-crap. They had to add the hyphen to soften it. lol. Sorry, but I can't be the only one. Hoping the story moves at a better pace.

This book had so much hype that I expected more from it. It's just good, not great.

Expected more from this one. It's good not great, no spoilers here but it's extremely derivative. Venom struggling with his identity and self worth is par for the course. The only fresh part so far a peek into historic symbiotes. The cover art concept has been done to death. If I see another Venom standing on top of a gargoyle, screaming with lighting behind him...I will fall asleep. Come on creators you are better then this. I will pick up the next issue with hopes that it improves.

Beautiful art, the story thou is just flat. While it's clear that it follows traditional Japanese folklore it feels like all the characters fall into predictable anime tropes. Thou maybe not a bad thing for those that are here for that.

It's very entertaining with one hang up, you have to be somewhat familiar with the Fortnite culture/verse to appreciate this run.

Really hits, the thread of character intros into this verse is solid. This one was not as good as Winter Soldier 2099 but still pulled in.

For me going strong. And as I said it's very entertaining with one hang up, you have to be somewhat familiar with the Fortnite culture/verse to appreciate this run.

Let the 2099 universe rip! As a fan of the verse, what a great start. Looking forward to this run.

Picked up the TPB. It's a solid read, I enjoyed it more than I expected to.

While I enjoyed 1-3, #4 Maybe the best of the Annihilation 2099 series thus far. Thou it jumps around a bit I'm really intrigued by the 2099 Surfer character, it had notes of humanity in it and he seems to have the most potential to tell heartfelt stories in the genre. Suggest you give it shot.

Great concept, great start, And I love Ryan's art. I'm in and on-board for the ride.

Still in it. And as I said it's very entertaining with one hang up, you have to be somewhat familiar with the Fortnite culture/verse to appreciate this run.

It was fun ride, I recommend for anyone who is a gamer and Marvel fan. Looking forward to the next ZERO WAR run.

WOW, expected a re-boot with Spider 2099 tropes, but got so much more. The story intro of Winter Soldier 2099 is killer with the art to boot. She needs to have her own run. So well done. Will pick up the issues that follow.

Stan Lee and a team of uber creatives have put together something very special. Most who are purist will not give this a chance and that's understood, but Lee's re-imagining of the JL is intriguing and refreshing. I particularly loved the retelling of Wonder Woman from an Inca Mythos lens. As a one shot it's a worthy read if your tired of the same super heroes and the expected.

A familiar Venom story re-told in such an elegant way. And the different art styles worked so well. Loved all of it.

Throughly entertaining, the way a comic book should be. For me it actually played out like a movie script. I'm not sure if that was the intent, but I can see it being done as live picture. Worth picking up.

Super fun ride. I recommend you give it a shot.

I dug the prequel story thats starts in Green Lantern #4 and builds to Sinister Sons. I particular like David Lafuente's art. He has a modern looking manga style with charm, a la Scott Pilgrim but all his own. Will continue to check on this one month to month.

LOVE SSM. It continues to entertain and impress.

This issue was so killer. The 2.0 costume design by Ramos cemented the visual identity of Superior Spider-man as his very own. Definitely historic in the SSM run.

Still think SSM is the BEST version of Spidey. The Dock Ock persona elevated the character to new heights that being Peter alone could not have. Thanks Dan Slott.

Fantastic new series. The story is fun and intriguing and Tradd's art is unbelievable. The line art precision and time it must take him to finish a page does doe not get past me. Well done guys!

Kirkman and De Felici breathing new life into the Transformers and GI Joe universe. It's exciting. Looking forward to getting into the full run.

Continues to entertain. Mixing nostalgia with a some fresh new characters. I'm in.
