Peter David and Dale Keown are awesome! I'm really impressed, what a brilliant story... It's cool in every possible way.

WOW. Fuck, I can't not give a 10 to that... No words, but so many emotions... The art is outstanding as well. I laughed at this and felt very warm somewhere deep in the heart. Such a great holiday story...

10/10 of 6 critic reviews? That's something surprising... I remember reading it as a kid and I loved this mini-series too. But do I still love it the same way? I think, yes! This story has some interesting ideas and is ultimately hilarious. However, I think it's not a 10/10.

That's much more a 10 for me. Very solid and strong story, many hilarious gags, awesome "classic-style" art. Yeah, I definitely love this issue more, than previous.

Hey, it was funny enough. This issue is mega hilarious. It was an interesting story. Plus I really like to see their relationship through different periods. At this point they are a real friends and not just some rivals. I remember that in the 5th issue Peter became even the part of their family.

This was awesome... Kinda silly, but still funny. You will have a large amount of positive emotions reading this, I swear.

That was a perfect conclusion for the series. Totally deserved 10.

Awesome limited series

Nuff said. Legend. Masterpiece. There's almost no comics like this one. Unique idea and spectacular art, that worth to take place in museum. If you hate it, than you never really loved comics. Yeah, there's a recap of many events of earth-616, but now we look at them from the other perspective. It's not a stupid retelling.

This one starts way better, but mostly because previous series ended on a cliffhanger.

Hey, it was just awesome. Purrfect teenage drama.

This one is waaaaaaaay better. But I highly recommend you to read it in chronological order.

The best volume so far. It's so emotional, I really cried around 3 times through this story. Awesome conclusion to their story arc. This book needs a movie. It would be an oscar, I swear you.

This is the one of Jack Kirby's masterpieces. Behold: Devil Dinosaur. At first I thought that it is a lame and weird idea, but this comic is amazing. I read it for the second time in my life after 5 years and I still love it. Art is almost flawless, story is cool. I think that Devil's origin is kind of strange and naive, but it's fine. This is only the beginning. Meet the Valley of Flame where Dinosaurs, giant spiders, giant ants and prehistorical people live and interact with each other! Not a bad start, but this series is have its aces up in the sleeves, I assure you. Can't wait to reread it.

Epic issue. Giant spider, killer-folk... And Dino shows pretty much good amount of intelligence. He's clever and a good strategist. He don't fight with every creature he sees. If he is outnumbered by enemies and can prepare for the battle, he finds a weapon. If he just needs to save his friend, he do only what needs to be done to achieve this goal: he grabs him and flees. I love this in Jack Kirby's characters. He doesn't write fights just for fights.

This issue is flawless for me. Dino and Moon-boy meet their first real enemy. And this enemy turns out to be bad not without a reason. Here was a super 10/10 twist, this story is awesome.

This issue starts with an ultra psychedelic dream of Moon-boy and then follows an alien robots invasion. I don't know how Jack could write 4 issues of this series and still make it interesting. All issues are different. I just dream about movie based on this series. But even if Kevin Feige will decide to make it, it will be based on Moon-Girl series, I assure you. Huh, well. Back to this issue: 17 pages were not enough to defeat aliens. And it makes this threat more dangerous and big, than others.

This aliens arc is still isn't over, but now there are giant ants! Epic. And Kirby's art is 100/10 when he draws spaceships and other 2-pages stuff like that.

And battle with sky demons is still isn't over! That's a really big story arc for this small series. But new characters are still appear here. For example, Eev. And it's the only one woman... Kinda stupid, Jack, no offence. Also there were more solo Moon-Boy and less Devil Dino at all. Not the best issue of this series, but still not bad at all. P.S. I didn't know, that Marvel had balls in those years. There was a rape attempt. And who knows if it was successful behind the scenes or not... The answer seems to be "yes".

I think it was something like Eden reference. And the dilemma of that issue: to live under the dome in peace with food or to live with risk but to be free. They chose... Well, it doesn't seem to be the choice. Rather coincidence. But it's okay with me. What is not okay with me - that woman, Eev, she is fine now to be with that Stone-Hand guy. And why? He literally raped her. I believe he did it. Women couldn't work in that way even in that reality. She was free, she was fine alone, she wasn't weak. And what now? And well, alien arc is over! Finally, after 4 issues.

Nice idea for a new threat. And Moon-Boy finally found his folk! And even made them to be brave enough to fight. Very inspiring issue.

In this last issue of the series Dino appears in the Earth-616 for the first time! No superheroes, only army and other citizens. It was cool. That Witch is a nice character too, but there was not enough time to really understand her. However, this is very solid conclusion for that story! I love this series with all flaws. Sadly, that it was that short... But Devil Dino wasn't forgotten by Marvel.

It's almost perfect. My 100% favourite of all Jack Kirby's works. It's a unique character with a small potential, but he made many interesting stories about him here.

Wow, I thought this double-sized story will be boring, but no! Surprisingly very interesting and solid story! It's better, than most of the issues of this series. This story isn't connected with the main series directly, so you can read it from any point after 11th issue or better after the 14th one. And the art is awesome as well! I don't know how Jack could make such a great big comic between his ongoing Eternals series...

Close to a perfect comic. It may feel a bit weird (like why the hell there were Ultimate Sue and Reed), but for the most part the comic itself is really good and cute. What a better way to celebrate the wedding anniversary of the best couple in Marvel Comics? Uh, this makes me feel sad about Peter and MJ, you know...

I'm here after the show. I really liked the TV series and it was very interesting to see his origin in comics. And I was so surprised, when I understood that it's almost 100% the same as in the show. Yeah, they made it kinda better and more detailed in show, but still, that's the first time I see when TV show or movie does this... With this in mind I can say that it's one of the best origins for a character... I couldn't even imagine this background for a character like Hit-Monkey and I thought they made it different for the show. It's just wow, really. That's so bad, that he has almost no solo comics at all...

Well, I can understand this amount of hate around this series. But I still don't see enough green reviews that this series deserves. Do you think, that there's no beginning? That's because it is not the beginning. For the beginning read Marvel Zombies: Dead Days one shot and then Ultimate Fantastic Four 21-23. I think, they could made dead days part of this series, but UFF story arc still would be missed and it would be stupid to replicate that story. Do you think the art is bad? It is horrific! Some faces actually could really scare you, if you were younger. In my opinion, it is very fitting. I enjoy every page of this art. And how can you say, that this writing is bad? Kirkman's dialogues are awesome. I simply love this series, I really enjoy all these characters talking and kinda figuring out what they became. Yeah, there's not much "story" in this issue, but it is the end for the Magneto of that universe and that end was shown ultimately cool. You don't like stories about zombies? Well, then most likely you won't love it. But if you even love Kirkman's The Walking Dead you still may hate it, because zombies here aren't stupid. They talk, they think and there aren't much living people in this world. But it's still very entertaining series to read. Want to say: this is another universe. It's not the same heroes, that we know. So, how can you be mad about all of them being zombified? It is not canon, why does it matter? Just enjoy the comic. Don't be fooled by all red reviews. Just read it and make your own opinion. What about me, I read this series around 10+ times for all these years and it still as awesome as it was the first time. And I can't say that about all these sequels, so I am a reasonable guy and not just some zombie fanatic.

Well, that every page of that Hank Pym scene was wery horrific, I love it. And that was about a half of this issue. The story is developing slowly, but can't say that's bad. Now there's Silver Surfer flying around and Galactus incoming. Well, food... I just don't understand how could these zombies eat (I MEAN EAT) all billions of people on their planet within 3 days. That's another stupidity and that wasn't even necessary. They could give them at least month to do that and send Surfer after that. However, that could do speedsters like Quicksilver or Speed or Northstar and etc. And even if they are dead, they are still... well... alive? Does Silver Surfer of their universe didn't swear not to feed to Galactus planets with life on them? But it is still a good comic.

Okay, surfer doesn't think, that they really deserve to "live". Well, I also noticed, that Thor wasn't worthy anymore and he fought with a self-made hammer... Could someone please explain to me what was that with the Wolverine's arm, when he attacked the Surfer? That was weird... Also, there was Ghost Rider. Okay, even a skeleton can be bitten... Yeah, he could be in his human form, but Colossus wasn't and he still was bitten. However, without all these stupid moments this series wasn't exist, but I love it, so it doesn't bother me, right? Well, if Hulk could bite Surfer's head off, when Tony Stark couldn't bite him, then The Thing could bite Colossus? That's the logic? Huh, those, who tasted Surfer, got his power and killed all other zombified heroes. But the Galactus arrived. And for the guy who "eats" planets, he was kinda too surprised, that zombies ate his herald. For me this issue was worse, than others, by some means. But however, there were too much events for the story and it's cool.

It gets more hilarious and less horrific. At that moment Robert too far gone with that black humor. And this issue is more disgusting, than others. But it's still nice reading for me. However, I can't understand why the Panther killed another living human. There are almost no people alive, that's stupid. And why Venom's fangs became typical zombie tooths?

This particular issue always makes me hungry... I don't know why. Well, that was epic. They fought all their arch enemies, then they devoured the devourer of the worlds and took his place, but in a much more horrific way... I think, it is a very cool decision and it makes this series to get a sequel.

Not a masterpiece, but still one of my favourite and unusual comic books.

This is the chronological beginning of Marvel Zombies. It was printed after the Marvel Zombies vol 1, so it was a good addition and this comic explains much. Robert Kirkman is awesome writer and Sean Phillips is a good artist too! This looks horrific and I simply love this series. However, there's not that much logic. I mean, originally Robert wanted to make Luke Cage the only survivor because of his unbreakable skin. But Greg Land already drawn him in Ultimate Fantastic Four #22. So, he just played with the cards he got. But Colossus somehow was easily made zombie too... That's just weird, I think it's naive and kinda lazy. Also Stark is inventing too fast, I don't believe it. And I know, that many people can hate Reed Richards here, but I think his behaviour is understandable. He lost his kids and maybe gone mad... Also it's just stupid, that meta-humans bite each other and don't eat other heroes to death, but they eat all people to death and people don't turn into monsters. That's weird. Why did they make themselves a competitors? Less zombies - more food... But if you will not think, than you will like this comic. It is a very good horror to read and super valuable addition to the series.

It is really nice addition to the series that was published 25 years before this comic. But it still looks just like it was made in the 90's... So cool, they really didn't lose that vibe. The iconic epilogue for the iconic series.

It's indeed outstanding in both story and art. JMS writes this as depressing and poetic as it should be. And still there's some slight happiness in it... There were years since the last time I read this book and I think this time it feels even greater. Can't wait to read the next issues. You know, I really even forgot how it feels when you just sit and slowly read through the book, without hurrying, relishes every page. JMS did the same good work with showing the fatality in Spider-Man's encounters with Morlun. Easily one of my favourite Spider-Man stories...

This is a masterpiece. I have a problem with Esad drawing Peter's lenses like that and with MJ's face, but it can't spoil me the book - it's still great. Every Marvel fan must read it - it's just awesome.

I would say this issue is rather weaker, than the previous two. There's too much pointless exposition and this didn't feel that personal for Surfer as the previous parts. However, it's still good. Especially the words of Norrin on the last page... I guess this deed was much more important, than showing the cosmic beauties to Peter's wife.

There's nothing even to add...

This is a must read. Objectively and unquestionably.

Nice beginning.

Well, it is a good crossover. However, this issue kinda retcons the conclusion of the Army of Darkness #13. But it is still a good addition to the Marvel Zombies series. We see here not only the very-very beginning, but also the world before that disease. I love this artist less, than Sean Phillips, but his zombies are still horrific and that's what I really need. Maybe they are even more horrific. Script is alright too, but what I don't understand - in Marvel Zombies: Dead Days Magneto told, that he caused that mess. Maybe I didn't quite understand him.

This comic reveals much about the zombieverse. We see here the beginning described much better and detailed! And the cliffhanger is awesome.

Well, here is an explanation of how zombies ate all billions of people around the world in three days. It really was the Quicksilver, as I supposed. And Doom is awesome here. However, it kinda disappointed me, that Necronomicon is really exists in that universe, but it did nothing to cause the zombie attack.

Okay, that was cool. However, the ending is very... Open? I mean, that was fun, but I need... don't know... some more? But it was a good series. Sometimes too hilarious, sometimes too weird (wtf, what toilet paper? That was bad...), but it is a very good addition to Marvel Zombies. It reveals so many details about the story...

Funny, horrific, interesting. Plus it's a good addition to the whole Marvel Zombies series and reveals more details about that universe and how it began.

Naked women, dinosaurs, violence, nazis, Frank Cho... I really don't know what NOT to like about this comic... I'm a big fan of Cho, I would say. Really love his style and if sometimes his soft porn sexualization of women doesn't fit the story, then for Shanna it's actually what the story needs! And oh my, I didn't expect this comic to be that violent. Feels more "Max", than some real Marvel MAX titles... Yeah, no f-bombs and nipples here (feels incomplete a bit, if you know what I mean), but it really is still pretty violent and sexy. I'm also a big fan of dinosaur aesthetics, so... If this comic gets any worse - I'd be devastated. Cho can't let me down... P.S. I made some additional research and it looks like the series was announced as Marvel Max title at first... If it wasn't some fake info, lol. Well, it explains everything.

My, thinking about that, she's really just a 1 month old child. This quickly got too perve... Nah, nevermind! It's also funny how the comic is mostly about Shanna hitting guys staring at her or trying to take advantage of her. And a cover was a fake spoiler... But still, it's a lightweight reading and I needed such!

If you love women, dinosaurs and especially women killing dinosaurs - then this is a must read for you - no shit.

I can't not love it. There's nothing to not love here. A legit 10 from me.

Cho spend half of the issue silently showing dinosaurs killing and eating each other... If that's not the art, then what is? That could be easily a 4-5 issues limited series, but surprisingly I don't want it to be short! I would watch Cho drawing dinosaurs for hundreds of issues, it will never get old.

That was epic as hell... And looks like Shanna becomes more and more humane. And learns about hard decisions...

Fuck it, another 100% deserved 10 from me. I don't care, this comic must be made for me, because this is one of the best things I've read for who knows how long... Definitely will make my top of all-time favourite comics. This is super spectacular in terms of nature and landscapes, dinosaurs, sexuality, violence. The story might be simple if you make a short retelling, but it's not dumb and bad, it has interesting info about dinosaurs, philosophic thoughts about life, death and humanity. It has some interesting twists I didn't see coming (okay, at least one in the end of this issue). And the conclusion was absolutely fantastic - just a perfect finale for the story. Seeing Shanna showing emotions and actually feeling something for someone is just a thing you don't think about after seeing her in the issue #2. I have no words, I wish there were more comics like this: simple in a good way and really entertaining! Also if you don't want this Shanna to be ruined for you - don't read the next book. That conclusion is definitely not what you might wanted after reading this comic.

Yes, maybe I'm overrating it. I don't care, this book made me so happy like no other books made for a long period of time. Pure fan-service with a funny lightweight story and brilliant artwork.

Charlie Adlard is a good artist, but I liked previous one more... The story is still awesome

One of the best issues so far for me.

I really don't like the idea how easily Michonne, Glenn and Maggie found Rick and Carl... Just luck? A coincidence? Or maybe the writer became a little bit lazy? I don't care that Rick somehow found Lori and Carl in the beginning of the story, but this exact "reunion" makes me kinda angry. However, the issue is still good. Not much of the events, but it's nice reading as always.

Unbelievable how far the man can go to protect his family. Rick gones mad episode is much more cool and justified than in the TV show... Great work, Mr Kirkman!

New interesting character. New potential danger. And two more deaths. Really an iconic issue. I like Lizzy and her story in the show more, than the twins from comics, but it's done really well here too. It was unexpected and fast, however still cool.

Actually, there's only three scenes: Rick talks with Carl, Eugene reveals his lies and Rick&Abraham meet some new guy. But it's enough to make a good part of the story.

Rick crossed the line... Again, but this time he actually lost the connection to the reality. I also don't know how to look at this back-up story. It's weird and kinda funny, but really unfinished and pointless.

CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARL

Negan finally... That was awesome...

Well, I still very liked this issue. Don't understand why someone can rate it less than 8

It was a wise decision to hire an inker and let Adlard be only a penciler. The art became much better and I like it! I wanted to rate this issue 9-9.5, but then just hit 10, because the new story arc is very promising and this art is a bomb!

Oh, man, that's so cool, but it reads SOOOOOOOOOOOO fast... I want more. I NEED more. And thankfully I can get more right now and I don't have to wait a month or so for another issue to come out.

"We are not monsters" I love Negan more with every issue. TV show just took almost all situations, that unfold Negan from not-100%-villain side. I really proud of Kirkman, that he was the guy, who came up with all these ideas.

I don't like this "rectangle-clouds" style of narration... It's really confusing. I can't even remember it in the tWD before. It doesn't seem to fit this series. But the issue itself is nice. Poor tiger... And what's with Maggie's face, for god's sake? It's terrifying...

It was good, but kind of boring at the start

"Even now, they still find new ways to dispose of the dead." But what ways? What was this title about?..

Oh, Eugene...

Whoa, I'm REEEEEEEEEEEEALY impressed by this issue...

Almost all killed characters were useless. I will miss only Zeke... But still a horrific ending.

Nice Maggie/Rick fight for nothing, just to embrace each other after that... What a mess

The same old throat gnawing... This will not impress somebody ever again.

Rick literally wanted to allow Negan to walk around or something like that, but changed his mind, when saw Negan.

I love Negan. No homo. He really deserved my love.

WHOA THE WHOLE ISSUE OF NEGAN. That's awesome. I think, he killed her too soon. I liked that they had sex in the show, but well, comic version of events is still cool. I LOVE NEGAN. That's the one of the best issues of the series! Even blah-blah don't let you get bored!

Wow, some kind of trust for Negan, that he well deserved

I almost cried

Great Negan's speech. And again it's not a good time for Rick... He's a madman, really.

Negan makes his confession. And Maggie finally relieved. Well, I'm impressed, again, but I hope not for the last time.

what a cliffhanger...

I don't like this female governor and all this history repeating, but maybe it will be something new... Of course, Michonne and her daughter reunion is a cool thing.

Even Rick isn't immortal. That was just a matter of time.

Not perfect, but emotional

Surprisingly very good for the Ultimate universe. I really love these simple love stories about people, especially with a bit of a superheroic charm. It's funny and enjoyable. Also, the early Larocca's style seems interesting for me too. It's fitting here.

I don't know how it works... There's nothing outstanding, but it works, it really works. Somehow it really does make me feel strong emotions... It teases your thirst for justice and etc. Also I see now where's the inspiration for the Daredevil's Netflix series costume come from... Really enjoy this book for now and the fact that it's the Ultimate universe make me appreciate it even more.

so cool

A strong conclusion. It's a bit sad, but still cool.

It's just awesome! This TPB also had Daredevil #9, but I don't care about it, because it's a bonus. Ultimate D&E is a great comic and it's one of the best things Ultimate universe has.

The dialogues were just awesome... As well as the action here.

I simply love this limited series. Yeah, the storytelling is super complicated and non-linear, but if you understand it, then you can enjoy good mature story with a couple of nice twists and spectacular art.

Now that's what I call the great Hulk comic. I needed to reread it after the shitty Stan's first Hulk run... Awesome Romita Jr's art, double sized comic, pure action. I feel Hulk's pain here. And his wrath. Yeah, it is a strong book indeed.

Not as good, as the previous issue. There was a stupid "Sentry" moment, I can't believe Hulk could really buy that... And there was a bad printed page. I thought it's just the problem of my physical copy, but digital comic had this issue too... Wtf

Hulk cracked Strange's hands... Man, that was epic. And Ross... He's a crazy... Too crazy here. I understand why they made him the Red Hulk year after. It's just was inevitable... Epic issue. I just hate Sentry for just sitting... He's like a girl you are trying to go on a date in high school...

What can I say... Epic. It could be even more epic if some of the heroes got a real permanent injury or died, but it's nice that way too.

Very epic and solid final. It could be better, but it's still an awesome reading.

There are five issues with the length of two, so it has the length of 10 issues, but it reads so fast. Really entertaining and enjoyable reading. Almost pure action, pure rage through the entire book. Very solid Hulk comic and I like to reread it every now and then. Yeah, it could be better and not all writer decisions were flawless, but I still highly recommend you to read it if you love Hulk and even if you didn't read Planet Hulk arc.

Not a fan of that art. Sometimes it's very hard to understand what you see. But still it's fitting and stylish. The story is not a 10/10, but it's just the beginning, a warm up. I didn't understand the nature of Daredevil's power here. There were no chemicals or something like that. But other than that it mostly just like it was in original. Nothing really innovative. Not a bad comic and not a masterpiece. I liked it though.

This story gets better for me and art gets more bearable too. It was cool.

This story gets better with every issue. This one was great. I didn't see that twist coming. Plus it was nice to see how Daredevil searched for Halloran. Good comic!

Good, but the conclusion is kinda dissapointing. I hate open endings... But it was cool series! This is the kind of marvel noir that deserves your time to read it.

It's a great stories retold with an awesome art. Not that original or something, but it's still a nice reading. Especially for a novice in comics.

The first volume is great and the second is not on the same level, but the whole story still has many fine Peter/Miles moments and everything. But I would suggest buying only vol 1, not both of them.

It's only a first issue, but it's already very good. The art is awesome, this pencil style is fitting for the tone of this story. Gaiman is awesome. He introduces all characters through the story and it's entertaining af... This 1602 world is so cool... It's so grounded, but there are still mutants and magicians and gods and everything else what could fit here. There's no scientific crap and etc. I really love how this world works and it's pretty balanced. It's still a Marvel story, but just a little bit less fantastic and superheroic. There was not much action, but this issue is almost overflown by different events and characters. And I can't say, that something was bad. It's just a bit boring in some parts and there are also things, that you will understand only later. But it's not the basis of this story, so it's really enjoyable even when you read it for the first time! I remember how this book infatuated me when I read it for the first time. And I thought this story would be boring or stupid lol. No, it's almost a masterpiece and this first issue is only the beginning.

It reveals more about the characters, but I have some issues with these vultures. I mean, how could they fly? Yeah, Doom is Doom no matter when, but that's just kinda make this story more fantastic, than it needs to be. And yeah, wow, Virginia's powers are something beyond...

doom

I just noticed, that there are dinosaurs literally and they are... like "okay". That's weird... And the origin of Virginia is such a bullshit... But comic is great, of course, really interesting. New twists every issue.

There's too many different events and twists. The story is faaaaaaaaaar from grounded at this point. But it's still cool and interesting and that's still not an end.

I don't know how could he create this, but he did. Bravo!

Well! It's kinda too fantastic for a 1602 story, imo... And the final Hulk appearance is just stupid. Peter was finally bitten - cool. But I still have some questions just like the characters of this story. And even if I didn't understand everything - it's still one of my favourite comic books which I just can't stop to reread every now and then. Not the best ending, but it's still awesome as a one book.

I wish I could rate it as 10. It is a comic of all comics. It's almost a masterpiece. But I just can't ignore some holes and weird decisions. It's a finished story even if there's a set-up for future books. I think Gaiman just made a great work on this one. He just kinda... Overthought it. It is really a little bit too complicated. And not every one of these complications was justified. And I won't stop saying that it's an awesome book and you definitely must read it. Just forget about the sequels and read this one book entirely. Also, it really feels much better as a physical book, not digital. Read this story in one sitting and try to give it a time, don't hurry to read it as fast as you can. Just sit, relax, take this book and read it. And I'm sure you'll be entertained for almost a 90% of the time you spend on this.

This story is very arguable. Very arguable. It has some flaws, maybe even many of them, not all decisions of the writer were good and working for me. But the art is awesome. If not for the art, I'd rate it 7.5 or 8. Actually, nice TPB-one-shot. That's a rare format for Marvel. I even bought this book years ago. Can't say I really enjoyed that, but it's a nice reading. At least for the art. And I didn't read anything else about Teresa, she seem to become very important, especially for the 5th volume of TASM. So, if you are interested in her origin - then this story is definitely on your to-read-list. P.S. I think, black suit was super unnecessary and odd here...

Not a bad beginning at all. Just like in Blue and Grey we have Matt mourning his fallen love Karen and it makes him to go through his past since the very beginning. Well, I'm glad that we didn't have another Spider-Man's origin in Blue, but Daredevil doesn't have that many origin flashbacks as him, so I'm totally fine with it being in this book. This is pretty cinematographic in storytelling and visually Tim Sale's style is something that was literally meant to be in comics. Yeah, yeah, might be another reason to say something like "RIP Tim Sale", but I think it's already redundant - the guy's work will live forever and the fact that we all come back to these books after all these years just proves it. He fucking lives! I went through "Dardevil: Yellow" many years ago and hardly remember it, so why not to read it again? Especially as a part of Book Club from this discord server: https://discord.gg/vrpDm4rK The guys basically choose a book every week and read/discuss it, so you can join if you are interested.

I want to say this:

Really making me want to read the original Daredevil comics, but then I remember that it was Stan Lee in the early 60's...

Very solid. Unpopular opinion, but this is even better, than Spider-Man: Blue for me. Can't really say why, though...

It was an interesting story. Kinda weird that everything in Flint's childhood is connected with sand and his green t-shirt, but well, why not... The second small story was nice too. It's not that new to show some dying child and Spider-Man being sad about it, but why not if it works.

Awesome one-shot! It shows us how it is for Bruce to wake up who knows where after he was Hulk again. Good comic. It has some weird moments, for example, the one with... Wrecker's testicles. But it reminds me of the Hulk 2003 movie where a dog bit him in the balls and after that he... uh... revenged his testicles with his fists, if I can say so... Almost just like here. I believe it's okay for the Hulk to fight dirty. Plus Hulk used here Rulk's trick with Thor's hammer, which is pretty dumb. I mean, Thor could easily release his hammer and Hulk would do nothing. It's really weird to see him not doing that, because he must be experienced enough... But that was epic! I think this is a funny story with no connection to anything else, so you can read it anytime you want. The art of Steve Kurth is strange sometimes, especially faces and heads, I remember him being better in the Ultimate Armor Wars. However his artwork is still good here. Yeah, as a Hulk fan I really enjoyed this comic.

Another entry point for new readers, but it was good. There's still a full normal part of the story and then this additional recap story, so I'm totally fine with it. It was mostly great and I honestly even missed the old costume. Let's see what will happen to our boy next.

Art is not that good, as it could be, but story is cool and very important for the marvel universe.

One of the best what ifs. I didn't think 2022 comic would be such great. Gives me back my belief in marvel comics. I just think the story itself is kinda too utopian. But the message is simple: wether watchers interfere or not - heroes will win no matter how. It's a core of the comics. Heroes lose only in some alternate realities which no one really care about. And I heard that people think it's bad, because Galactus' death would cause some universe imbalance and etc, but this is not a 616 universe. It can be a variant of that universe without such consequences. So I'm fine with that, because it's a good comic with a cool story and art. Maybe Utau's father is too hard on him, but Uatu definitely deserves that, because he broke his oath so many times, that the oath itself makes no sense then...

This special is simply great! There are 6 different stories between one main story. Every story has it's own creative team. There's a greatest duo of Loeb and Sale, Humberto Ramos (AND I EVEN LIKED HIM HERE, why did he draw better in 1995 than in 00's?), Peter David and etc etc etc, so many cool artists and writers... Some stories were simple and okay, some on the opposite were just brilliant. I only don't like how the main story ended, it was, of course, funny, but it's very weird and dumb for the continuity. There also were pin-ups at the end of the comic! I think, this comic is a must-read for every Hulk fan. It's hilarious and epic. P.S. Howard the Duck movie joke is just really something else...

Wow, that was really good. So far that's the best marvel movie adaptation I saw. The art is awesome, the pacing is fine. You can even read and like it without even watching the movie. But it's still a great addition to the source material. And it's written by the man himself - Stan Lee! In 2002! Yeah, his style is recognizable, but it reads okay. Plus he changed some moments of the movie story and added something new to make it better for the comic. However, not everything was changed for the better... For example, the final scene with Peter and MJ is much weaker. I also love how Goblin looks in this comic. His mask doesn't feel like a dumb static plastic, plus it's really scary sometimes. It doesn't look that weird as in the movie. All in all - good adaptation. I love it.

Actually I really love how Aaron builds his stories. Like, the first page is already action. And it's a cliffhanger. After that he starts to tell us the story, that leads to that beginning. So, he interests reader first and only then he starts to build up the story. And what, for example, did Hickman in Ultimate Hawkeye? He started with some weird build-ups, backstories, boring and not personal action scenes... That's two ways to write stories and I like Aaron's more. Much more. Of course, it's very typical to make another super soldier serum powered guy. The same serum as Cap's. And he kicks Cap's butt the whole issue. And I'm not kidding... Cap couldn't even hit him once. And it would dissapoint me if Ultimate Cap wasn't such a dick. But! And that's a big but! This enemy wasn't created for the Ultimate universe. It's a Nuke from the Earth-616. He fought Daredevil and Cap. So, it's cool that Aaron didn't create some lame new villain or messed-up some iconic villain. I don't think Nuke really have that many fans. So he has super soldier serum here instead of cybernetic enhancements and so what? He's still cool here and his design wasn't changed. The art is fine too. It's not really outstanding, but I like it more, than Sandoval's one. His art was too digitalized and Garney's just what I like - these pencil lines and everything makes it just right.

Okay! Nuke had not the same serum and he actually still was cybernetically enhanced! Well, I simply love this series so far... Surprisingly very interesting and cool. I didn't think Captain America comic could be that interesting especially in the Ultimate universe... This exact comic was worth all that shit I read during my Ultimate Marvel marathon...

That. Was. Just. AWESOME! Man, I love Aaron. The issue is full of Nuke torturing Cap and he really deserved it. "I'm the greatest hero who ever lived"... Freaking douche. You wouldn't live, if Peter wasn't there to take your bullet and die... And the way Cap was tortured... It's especially cool now, when everyone bans Russia everywhere. How about to talk about the past of America and why it was the greatest in the eyes of pretty much everyone. I think every country's rulers can make some bad decisions and it's cool that Aaron can use it against his hero, because it really evokes some strong emotions. At least it did for me. It's fine that America isn't all that white and good here. Also the conclusion is a great cliffhanger - that's how you must bait readers to not drop the series. P.S. that Justin Bieber line made it a perfect 10 for me. Aaron always has some place for a dumb hilarious scene or something like that. The issue keeps you in suspense almost all of the time and then this lame Bieber line like a light in the end of the tunnel. Such a fine relief.

Ha-ha, Aaron just loves epic battles using hammers... Well... This snake twist was kinda lame, but the final dialogue between Cap and Clint made it better. I like when the writer doesn't think that all their decisions will be accepted by the reader just because they made them. Yeah, cool issue. Might be better, but cool. Also this exact issue is a bit too edgy in comparison with the previous, but the amount of gore was just right.

One of the best things I read in a couple of months... I'm really surprised it is the Ultimate universe book. It was really cool. Maybe Aaron is my type of writer. This comic really feels like PunisherMAX sometimes. The art is great too. It gets better to the last issue. Also this book has a very little connection to the other ultimate books, so you can read it just like that and you'll understand pretty much everything. Aaron and Garney made an outstanding work here. Thank you, guys.

I really want to rate it as 10, but some moments were weird. For example, strong Bruce. And, well, incest. However, it is kinda reasonable. But what about Hulk not being able to heal? Is he too old? So, he isn't old enough to be strong even in human form, but being torn apart from the inside is lethal for him? Also I really don't understand why Logan didn't kill the baby and even more - took him. Yeah, that's ironic, but the revenge kinda loses its point after decisions like that. Or maybe it still makes sense. I honestly don't know, this story really makes not that much sense, it's mostly pure rage and gore. Perfect for the grand finale, but not that cool if you read only this single one-shot. So read Old Man Logan in the third (2003) volume of Wolverine.

Wow... That was pretty unexpected for some movie comic tie-in. Actually, it's Vaughan, I should have expected the best from him. But there's also a really great art! It's dirty sometimes, but super cinematographic, I really love how action scenes look here. Not only them, but especially them. Also the book is finally a canon for the movie and it finally shows some real personal interaction of Wolverine and Sabertooth, that movies lacked. And it kinda explains what happened with the Tooth after the end of the first movie... Looks like Stryker somehow killed him after an unsuccessful attempt to repeat his Wolverine experiment... Either way, that was a very satisfying comic prequel, I guess you should give it a chance even if you don't remember or never saw the movie. This is still a good Wolverine comic.

That was as great as the Wolverine's prequel. The art is okay, not that cool, that Wolverine's, but still fine. And I thought Chuck Austen will make a piece of shit of a story here, but no, it was really really good. Definitely worth reading.

It's a good and solid set-up for the series. No action, but it's super intriguing. P.S. why the hell did they cut half of the frame on the page before X-Men met Avengers?

Well, it's just the demonstration of this new world through many different characters. It was cool.

This feels kinda messed up for me, but definitely not bad.

Amazing

Epic. Especially everything about Peter.

This is epic and all, but it's just too weird. So many arguable decisions... I would rate it lower years ago, but now I think, that 9 is the best I can and want to give it.

This was a very solid aftermath issue. I can disagree with some decisions and think that they are too radical, but at the same time I see the great comic with an awesome storytelling... I think it deserves more love.

This book is arguable. Very arguable. I think, this is hard to love it after the first reading. But if you give it another try after a while, when all these Bendis decisions are not bother you anymore, then you will really understand the greatness of it. Art is awesome. Storytelling is awesome. Every part of this story is important and if you read all tie-ins and back-up stories of this event, then you will understand and like it even more. I read not all of them, but all I read really expanded my experience here. This event is important and it is epic, so even if you won't like it - it's still worth your time. Don't be afraid of these mixed ratings. Just read it and decide for yourself.

This Punisher is not the same as his 616 version. And for now I like it. There wasn't so much Punisher in action, but it's still a very good beginning of a story. And wtf, that last page was epic...

This. Is. Mindblowing. Just read it! I read it before years ago, but now I still got surprised by all twists and etc. There are some boring moments, but that's not much and doesn't make the comics worse. Really recommend this series to read at least for this exact issue. And as I remember, Russian will become trans person here too. I love this character for his weirdness. He is unique. Also there were Jigsaw and Barracuda from Max universe.

It was intense and epic

For me the last issue was kind of weird, but it is still a very good conclusion. Nice story! But I hate when even small 4 issue series can't get only one artist... Here is the new one and he is worse.

Good start. Enjoyable humor, nice art, interesting story. There's not much action and this comic has come cringy moments, but still pretty solid reading.

Even funnier, than before. Plus there's a super old superwoman here... They forgot about her many years before. And I mean many!

That was cool. Interesting limited series. It has some flaws (at least for me), but it's really enjoyable. And "the-superior-foes-or-spider-man-like" humor only makes it better.

This event isn't the best, but it's at least nice and even interesting. Some of the sub-series are so-so (especially Ultimates), but still readable.

Art is brilliant. This is really something spectacular. But story for now is boring. This was mostly the retelling of Johnny's origin with some set-up to the story of this series. I really liked a couple of moments here, especially when the boy put pencils in his eyes. But this issue is far from masterpiece.

This is very epic!

I dunno, that was good, but after this conclusion it feels kinda pointless... This whole series, I mean.

There's an awesome art + not a bad story at all. It feels pointless because of the conclusion, but mostly it was nice to read.

Okay, now that was a really enjoyable ride!

I honestly liked it more, than Eve's origin. It doesn't feel rushed. Yeah, Kirkman decided Rex deserved a normal origin story too. Why not. Especially if he really killed him in #60. I don't know why I didn't skip the spoiler here, but well... Not like I care about spoilers. I think this book will get a special episode in the show too. But we'll see that. Also I want to say that this artist was kinda worse in Eve's story. I like him here.

Okay, that was pretty epic. And I really love to see how Eve and Rex were back then before Invincible and before even the romantic thing. It gives it some depth it was needed, since Eve is such an important character for Mark. When I first saw them in Invincible, I thought they pretty much were together, because they were in one team. But looks like they got together, because they had history.

Okay, that was a lot of fun and actually better, than Eve's story.

I really enjoyed it. The art of Nate Bellegarde was too dirty and creepy looking in Eve's story, but in Rex Splode I really liked him. And the story was cool in both series, but I honestly liked the second one better.

Nice beginning for the series. I remember this series to be very interesting and mature. Yeah, there's a lot of gross moments. And it really makes sense, because, well, Punisher.

This is kinda epic Kingpin's story. Plus they show us, that Kingpin and Punisher are very similar, but so different at the same time... Interesting parallel.

These covers are bad, especially this one. But comic is epic.

The beginning was super gross and stupid. Super stupid.

This Bullseye is a total creep, but he's a very interesting character actually.

You know, it was epic, very epic. And interesting. But too gross...

Awesome. We starting to rethink Frank's origin. Plus there's an outstanding scene, showing how criminals are scared of him, even when he's nearly dead... Good!

This is super cool. I like how metaphorical this story. I only think, that Frank looks too healthy after being nearly dead... But it doesn't make it worse.

Yeah, that was epic, but I'm tired of seeing all these perfect assassins playing with Punisher, when they could kill him with one blow... So stupid.

It isn't the best comic I read, but this series is really worth your time. It's perfect for you even if you didn't read Punisher before. However, there's a lot of gore. This is definitely not for everyone, but that's a great book.

That was great. Awesome origin flashback, which was skillfully integrated into the main story. This is a must-read for every Punisher fan, even though this book is not canon.

Not the best conclusion, but it was hard to make it perfect after so many great issues.

Well, surprisingly a good comic! After the Immortal Hulk I didn't wait anything from a short series like that, but it seems like a great thing. There were two stories that take place somewhere before the Talbot's death. The only bad thing about this comic is the first 5 or so pages with soooo many unnecessary recaps told in a way comics of 60's did it. And some Hulk faces in both stories were weird. But other that that it was really enjoyable. The first story was about Bruce trying to cure himself once again. However it resulted him being in a condition when neither him, nor Hulk could take the possession of their body. They fought in the Bruce's mindscape (by the way, Bruce was such a chad here!) and their physical body changed in a way of the one who was stronger at the moment. Add to this Joe Bennett's body-horror and you would get the Immortal Hulk in a nutshell. Yeah, the story feel pointless a bit, but it was fine to watch. I always enjoy such mind battles of Bruce's personalities. The second story was simple as day - Hulk vs bullying and that's it. Very short and not really deep story, but good enough to leave a pleasant aftertaste. Overall a great issue, with some bad things from old comics, but cool for a time, I believe.

That's the Ravage! From the Hulk 2003 movie game. Well, I think this is a criminally underrated character, who appeared only in this exact limited series. I mean, in Earth-616. He also FOR SOME REASON was in one of the Spectacular Spider-Man Adventures UK magazine issues. And in the game, of course. And in one of the LEGO games too. But that's really it... And I think this character might have a well-deserved place in the gallery of the greatest Hulk enemies. The game version is similar, but there was no backstory to his relationship with Bruce, which is a shame and applies to every villain of that game, even the Leader appeared out of nowhere... However, the "power draining" machine from the game looks better, than some sorta teleporting device, that could teleport Bruce without his gamma or copy his genetic structure and apply it to Crawford... It's really too complicated for such a purpose, but okay, why not. Also I didn't like how fast they came from meet and greet to fight to death as two hulking beasts. This really shouldn't be THAT quick and it needed some proper and well-paced character development, more conversations over a cup of tea (Raimi's Spider-Man 2 like). The idea of the Ravage is cool, at least. I mean, yeah, his appearance isn't really interesting, he's just a swamp-green coloured Hulk with a beard. But as a personality he has some cool traits. He needed Hulk's healing powers to stand from his wheelchair, but when he got the actual power - it was WAAAY more, than he expected. It made his worst qualities emerge and he really had a good reason to stop being good to Banner. So, we have a man who once was Bruce's mentor, who could heal him, but instead used his power to heal himself and decided to try these new powers on the Bruce himself, because he tried to stop him from healing and wanted to keep all his powers to himself. I dunno, that's really good for such a limited series no one would even be interested in now if not for the 2003 game. As a gamma monster he's also not Abomination or Hulk as well, he's clever, he's a strategist and he has some fighting style (which was especially great in the game). I wonder why Hulk really doesn't have many enemies like that and most of them are one story arc only... It's not like the Abomination is much better to be used over and over again. So for me it's always great to see a new Hulk's villain in action. I hope one day the Ravage will get more attention (like Madman, for example), especially with the fact, that all gamma people are now practically immortal...

Wow, this is good! Much better, than I expected. We saw Bruce and Crawford talking even after their battle as monsters, the Ravage character gets even more interesting. Yeah, he was defeated too quickly and easy, but I believe it's far from the end. Also Hulk/Ross relationship was cool here. For a single issue there were too many events, which is fine, especially after super slow Immortal Hulk. Yet some parts are too naive and simple, which was a common thing for an old comics, which this comic tries to match (the Hulk mini-pic on the cover is from the 60's, plus the events take place back then, definitely after the Harpy appeared and before Talbot died). But it's still great to read and I just saw, that the Fly movie was officially the inspiration for this story. However, this teleportation thing idea isn't that cool here as in the movie, but still, it doesn't make this story worse. UPD: Okay, I just checked Marvel wiki, this IS the end for Ravage... I think he still had a room for improvement and development in future stories... I'll bless the day, when Marvel remember him, he really deserved more.

This is surprisingly a very strong story. This series just can't stop being great.

It's not like I needed another Hulk vs F4 comic and this old comics style kinda make the story worse, but I still liked it, not a bad comic at all, interesting enough to read.

This is incredible! I thought this series would be a typical not important B-category limited series, but it was actually really great! The development of Hulk/Banner relationship felt really important, the new Ravage villain was great and had an enormous potential, all stories were cool and hearth-warming. Only the F4 story was just Hulk vs F4, but still not a bad one, I love Hulk comics for the fact that Bruce is always on the run, he meet new people in new places, it's interesting and I didn't see that in any other major Marvel character solo series. And in this issue we even had freaking PUMA long before he even met Spider-Man in New York... Like, I never expected I would see Hulk sitting with the Puma's tribe and letting them to preform some rituals on him. The final Banner/Hulk conversation was sooooo great, this issue worth reading at least for that moment. I dunno, I really liked it. The Rampaging Hulk might still be an old comic and definitely not that hyped as the Immortal Hulk, but it's still a good reading for any Hulk fan, I believe. I initially came here for the Ravage, but the book was amazing all along!

Actually, that's an awesome start for the story. Not much is revealed yet, but there's enough info to start think about the reasons of what is happening. This suspense is making this story more interesting. It wouldn't be that great if it was told in the chronological order. + art is awesome. Gab is one of the best artists of modern era. Bendis here is quite nice too. You know, that this guy writes either bullshit or masterpieces. And that's pretty much more like a masterpiece to me. Yeah, for the first issue of run that was awesome. Can't imagine it being better, then it's 10. Of course, there wasn't much action, but this limited series will show you much action later. P.S. I hate politics. Diplomacy sucks. Also, this story arc was adapted and used for the first missions of Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2. So, if you didn't know that - then you know now. Time to replay the game, huh? And I find the cover choice is weird. There was no Spider-Man inside at all... But... There were his enemies... And Tinkerer is actually one of his first villains... Third, if count only TASM Vol 1.

The secret team roster is quite arguable. I mean, Fury knows better who he does trust, but if you know, that he brainwashed them after the operation, then it definitely makes no sense. And why did he made them new costumes, if they were still recognizable, especially Spider-Man... And most of the heroes didn't even have masks... But that's a problem of the last issue, if I remember correct. We didn't see these costumes at that point. The other problem of these costumes is gonna be that we didn't have much time to see them and they were mostly in flashbacks and these flashbacks were in black and white. Why did Gab draw concept arts of new costumes in colors then... And Logan was embarrassing here... Also, here was the first appearance of Quake. Who knew that she will become this important for the Marvel universe and not just another one-story-character. But somehow even Lucia Von Bardas appeared a few times later... Also if Gab duplicated some faces and other things in the previous issue, then here he did it so many more times... I understand, that his work on full comic takes a great amount of time and that the schedule of this series was super slow too. But it just feels kinda lazy and you really notice all these reused faces on the same page. Not that it makes this comic worse, just saying. So, this issue reveals almost nothing. Main story goes nowhere and we only met Nick Fury's secret team.

Oh, yeah. It is here where we get a first look at these new costumes... Then all what I said about this is the problem of this exact issue. Hm... Or is that a problem of the whole series? Can't decide yet. But what's the real problem is that on the cover we see concept art of the new Wolvie's suit. With the mask. And that version of the costume was rejected. He had no mask in the comic... Nah, I'm just trying to be super picky, because that's a good comic and when something is too good to be real, you are trying to find flaws and make it not that good. And ha-ha, Gab used the same face of Jessica from the first issue (where he already used it twice). Yeah, that was an awesome face, I wouldn't be angry to see him use it even for the hundred times. Actually, was a nice issue. Daredevil/Spidey team-up is always great. Plus story finally continues. And we know that the big mess is coming...

Action. Finally. Questions? Still unanswered.

Too. Many. Copypasted. Images. Too many. And I can understand it for flashbacks (and there were oh so many flashbacks), but seeing the same two faces of Daisy over and over again isn't the thing you want from this comic. Well, we got all the answers we need, but still I think it wasn't the best conclusion. I didn't appreciate some of the writer's decisions. And the mess was ended too fast. But it's still a good comic and definitely worth your time to read it.

What to say here... Not the best comic in the world, but still nice and important limited series. Art is awesome, but you should be ready to see some over and over copypasted images. Gab made a great work here, but time is time, so it could be understandable. Story is good too, but you might don't like the conclusion and that it wasn't told in the chronological order. As a one TPB it reads very well. This comic won't take much of your time, but it really worth it.

I love it

Huh, it was almost something more than kisses. But no. Artwork is nice for me, but it's the worst thing in the whole USM series, just doesn't fit the tone. Mysterio appearance was rushed and not really promising. I know, that they will show more of him in next issues, but for now it's not a really cool introduction. This comic isn't bad, but it's not as great as it could be. Wasted potential.

I didn't like this Goblin trip flashback... Was very hard to read and almost pointless.

Very funny issue. Iron Man saved Peter from another hundred injures. That Rhino guy was too hard for him to defeat damageless.

An iconic issue

Such a weird Eddie disappearance... And what's wrong with Peter? Did he forget that he has a secret identity? Well and actually no one was looking in the window on that boring lessons... And people on the streets will never recognise Peter. Of course, the rain is doing its thing. How convenient...

Off-screen Lizard from Ultimate Marvel team-up #10... It's time to read all, that I missed. But the issue itself is only talking and nothing more. However, Nick Fury's speech was fine and now one more man knows the secret of Peter...

I like this kind of comics. It's so realistic and cool.

Well, I don't like, that MJ came back to red so soon. I mean, how could she? Didn't she change the color of her hair?

Such an idiot. And Peter too. He could really catch that guy in the fall and give him to the police. Why did he carried him away? Police must think, that they are working together...

Hilarious!

oh shit here we go again

That's the reason why I totally love this series!

Nice issue, but just imagine: Spider-man defeats Octopus, than beats Kraven and just after that he fights Sandman. Too much villains for a one night, isn't it? And they remembered about it only after almost 20 issues... I don't believe in this.

In some of the first issues Kingpin mispronounced Electro as Elektra. But now he tells, that he don't know her. In super special #1 Spidey fought Elektra and she kicked his butt. He googled her, he said, that he will never forget her face. But now he didn't remember her... Bendis, please... Why can't you just be attentive?

RIP tooth. And god, Gwen is so irrational... Okay, she is that kind of smart to find out that Peter is Spider-Man. But how she could think, that he killed her father, he literally was with her

The story repeats itself. Kinda... Well, it could be better.

Embarrassing, but hilarious!

oh my god, the ending... why didn't Peter tell MJ that Wolverine possessed his body that day...

Nice, but kinda lame issue

I understand, that they retconned Spidey and Johnny meeting in the USM super-special, but I still hate moments like that... Why Bendis pretends like Peter never saw Human Torch?

boring

Bendis...

Peter is such a drama queen

ha-ha

Ha-ha, hilarious... What a mess.

pre-recorded tv sections were boring, but the cliffhanger at the end... well, it was really interesting what I read it for the first time

Nice flashback from super special #1!

I don't like that MJ was already not mad at Peter, but the issue is so great, that I don't want to lower the rating.

Well, it gets really interesting!

I don't know how to react

Total mess

Thanks for explaining things... And it awesome. You'll love it or hate it, no other options. I choose to love, at least for now.

doc ock twist is a banger

Peter is a brat...

KITTY WHAT ARE YOU DOING EXACTLY???

Another impostor... It won't work for the second time, Bendis... And I hate all this about spidey being so "right". But other than that the comic is great.

NOOO NO MORE BAGLEY :((((

Immonen is still nice for this series, I think. But I'm tired of shocker. And I don't understand why did they change Kitty's suit already... I liked her green one more, than this.

Such a quick and lame Harry and Norman deaths...

I dunno... This new Venom form... Gwen alive and not Carnage anymore... Aunt May holding the gun. I really don't think that it is a good game adaptation. It's not, game story was much better. And Venom in ultimate comics has only few appearances... Actually, only two story arcs. Next time he will be back to fight Miles Morales. I thought he was more important, but no!

This is really good. Really good! The beginning of USM is one of the best things Ultimate Marvel universe ever had. It's so freaking cool to see this new universe building, it reminds me of the early MCU, before it became an utter shit (just like Ultimate as well). So, this book might be a real reason to come back to these great stories for the nostalgia or read them if you are new to Spider-Man comics, it wouldn't disappoint you, I believe.

The art is kinda crappy, but story is nice. Not perfect, but ok, interesting for the most part.

WOW! It's like the most entertaining and unusual thing I read in my life (maybe)! It's like these books of R. Stine where you can make choices and it tells you what page to read next and get your own version of the story... Of course this format has some disadvantages, just like in Telltale games - a real logic and solid character development is really hard to achieve. Basically, some of your choices don't change the story, only emotional impact on you. And sometimes the story can't be really deep and focused. That's the case here - this story is such a basic thing. It exists almost just to exist. However, the comic really works even without an intriguing story. It's simply fun to read (however "play" is a better word). Also, the art is spectacular and the writing of Ewing is simply fine to read. Plus most moments here are amusing as hell! Like... Check this bad ending if you press the red button - it's the best twist in comic books. Imagine a face of a guy who really sliced his comic and then got this ending. It's awesome! And by the way, my badness and sadness scores make me to skip the second issue for now. This comic is outstanding - so many interesting ideas in one book...

Well, there are 4 separate stories and you need to complete only one. It's kinda worse, than the 3rd issue where there were 5 different paths and you could take every single one of them. Those stories were not that different and interesting, but here we can participate even in Hulk's and F4's origins. Yeah, I played the Hulk part and the comic ended way too fast for me. Also if you lose the fight - there will be game over for you. And that's really weird, because 3 other stories just give you a chance to choose a different path. So, the contents of this issue may be better, than the 3rd, but as a part of an actual adventure it won't really give you much of anything.

Cool issue. It had many cool easter eggs. In this one we need to collect *gems (it reminds me of old Marvel Questprobe games...) in the swamp. Still good, however, some of the paths were kinda too weird even for me. And yeah, I actually choose the one path to take, but still watch for all other options just for the sake of my curiosity.

Not bad, actually. There was even a moment to think. However I still think that having only 3 slots in the inventory is kinda meh. I almost constantly choose pointless items. And in one place here even if I didn't drop my pistol back then - I would only make things harder for me here...

The conclusion is rather underwhelming, but it was still fun to play. Can't say I would enjoyed it this much if I didn't cheat, but I still highly recommend you to read it. This is an experience to remember...

This comic is something you'll definitely remember and recommend your geek friends. It has some weak spots: the story itself is weak and simply functional, some moments are too weird even for Deadpool, also it's really hard to beat without cheating (as you can say that about "loading saves"). By the way, the inventory is small and it might be only few times when you guess correctly which items you should take. And these sadness and badness stats are 100% pointless. The only thing you need them for is the reading order of issues. Which is obviously almost has no sense, it only gives you an option to use items you couldn't get in normal order. However, even with these disadvantages it's still a nice adventure to take, especially with this amount of "mini-games" and other stuff. I believe you won't see anything like that in comic books anymore.

I wanted interesting story about just... you know... teenage girls and their stuff. And it was pretty much this, but not that interesting. But I already like it and want to read further. I think, it's just the beginning and the better is only to read next. Actually, I was surprised, that there was action and even a villain. But the way it's presented to us - it's something new. Spider-Man is the secondary character here and it's cool, to see him that way. Feels fresh.

Well! Now I see, that this MJ is kinda... Stupid? Yeah, but not in the bad way. More like in a teenager way. But this conclusion... It's something else :)

Actually, nice reading. You will like it, if you are tired of all these other Spider-Man stories.

I'm not really into manga and that's my first real manga and not some Zombies Assembled garbage. Yeah, I see now why people love Junji Ito. First of all, he makes his works alone and he really can do all the work by himself properly. I mean, his artwork is just awesome! My girlfriend reads manga mostly and I saw many things she read. Some of them had really lazy art: not really detailed, not mesmerizing, not on the same level as the worst american comics look. Especially with no color at all. But Ito has a brilliant style and I honestly read it much slower, than it reads, only because I stayed on some pages or panels to look at the art a little longer. This is epic. Everything is soooo clear, that you really don't need colors. And about writing... I dunno, it's hard to say something about his word, because I don't understand Japanese and I read english translation (which is already better, than russian translation of the english translation). However, the story is cool. It's weird, it's schizoid, but at the same time it's interesting. Disturbing pages are disturbing in a good way and after a few chapters you really dig into this world. If not take it as something serious and realistic - you can see the metaphorical sense in all these stories. Yeah, the connection between chapters is mostly lacking, but as a separate parts they can tell more. So, as always in such cases I'll form an average rating for this book from all separate ratings of the chapters. Chapter 1 - 7.5. It's actually might be even higher, but as an entrance point it lacks some good introduction of everything. And some things seem really weird and nonsensical at this point. But yet, it's an entertaining reading and not bad at all. It might be better as a beginning - that's my only complaint. Chapter 2 - 9.5. Now after the man goes his wife. And that's a cool chapter. It's full of psychotic things and it goes really deep and depressing here. That's where I almost understood the reason of all this. Such a scary shit. Chapter 3 - 8. It has decent gore, but I didn't really enjoy the core idea of this story. Mostly feels like a filler, but not a bad filler at all. Chapter 4 - 8.5 - It gets weirder here and I thought the father of the protagonist will die, but it had a better resolve. And this really adds something to the main story. Chapter 5 - 8.5. This is super metaphorical and it has a conclusion, which lefts a sense of incompleteness, but that was cool and it has some really astonishing drawings. Chapter 6 - 9. Epic hair battle. This chapter was intense. Finally, our heroine is in a real danger. This is a good change of tone. Plus the problem of attention was shown perfectly. Also I want to say, that the main character here, that girl, she's weird... She mostly has no emotions at all, which is really strange, because sometimes she DOES feel emotions like fear and in some even more scary situations she gives not a damn. But she's cool and I like how she connects even the most unrelated stories.

For me this volume is rather worse, than the previous one. Some of the stories were too weird for me or made almost no sense at all, but at the same time there's still an awesome art and creepy stories are really creepy. There's too many "zombies", but they are cool. I just don't get it what was the point of these stories. For example, the first story. For me it's more like 7.5. The idea is cool, but the part after that guy died felt forced and quite unnecessary... However, that was scary enough. The second one was even weirder, but kinda funny at the same time. And even if the message wasn't that clear, I think I got it. The snail transformation was very spectacular as well. 8/10 Nah, really, what was the message? The moral of that story? Like, not be a bully or you'll become the one you bullied? You will share the destiny of that guy? Or was it more simple? Like not touch something odd? However, can't really complain about this story. The Lighthouse chapter, on the other hand, was pretty cool. The "Van Gogh's Starry Night"-like sky was great and the story itself as well. It may be strange again and I really don't understand why Kirie didn't die there at least of a fall. But the consequences of that fall will affect the next two chapters, so okay. The story still deserves at least 9. The "infinite" spiral ladder felt mysterious as hell. So... The mosquitoes and babies chapters were connected and I personally think they are not the best of this book. I mean, yeah, mosquitoes are barely 8, which is high enough of course, but it doesn't make the story less nonsensical. However, I kinda liked how mosquitoes made pregnant women copy their way of containing fetuses. And the story was really scary. I think it was the most tough situation for Kirie so far. I just think she could get out of it not that easy. But the next story is 7 for me. It's just too weird and another infirmary chapter felt kinda odd. The ending was also too lazy and ragged as well. I think this could be much better and deeper. And the hurricane story is 9 again. That's cool for many reasons. First of all, it's really pretty obvious too use hurricane in manga, especially when it comes to spirals and weird devastating stuff. Plus the feeling of this all-seeing eye that wants our heroine is really something. However, the story had a lazy resolvement again. There was just no real damage for Kirie even when the hurricane finally got her. I thought it would be if not her death (which was obviously impossible), then at least a portal to something or a dream (that's a lazy cliche, but it still works). But yeah, it's still a great reading and I'm still entertained and looking for the grand finale.

This last volume of Uzumaki is my favourite. There's no fillers and the story goes its way without any interruptions. 13th chapter was great mostly, but I think the ending is too quick and sudden. However, this story sets the right tone for the third act of this series and that's a cool beginning for a book. 9/10 The butterflies chapter concentrates on new characters and makes the story even more depressing. I personally don't think it was a good idea to make everyone being able to create whirlwinds with their simple actions, but it still works for this story. Now it's more about people and how they survive the disaster. 9/10 once again, even when the ending doesn't feel like an ending at all. Next chapter is more like a reasonable and expected consequence of the previous one. It shows us how desperate the survivors are and how some of them use these whirlwind powers for their own purposes. Also the snails are back. I really love how things from the previous chapters still appear here. The lighthouse, for example. I also like to see how people go nuts. 9.5/10 for this chapter, but -0.5 is only because of some mess at the end. Especially with Kirie's father. Chapter 16 is great as well. Another 9.5/10. People in row houses are creepy as hell, the spiral of houses is building and our characters think how to escape. Everything here is so terrible, that it's just awesome. 17th chapter is even creepier... And some things are way too weird here for me. However, it's really intense and the feeling of hopelessness is very strong. 9/10. Poor Kirie's brother... And it's not like her own destiny will be much better... The next chapter is simply 10/10. The spiral labyrinth is mesmerizing and the conclusion just makes you shake in anticipation of great conclusion. And the conclusion wasn't that great in my opinion. I mean, it IS great, it's 9/10 for me for the spectacular looks and the atmosphere. I just wanted it to end in a different way and there are still some unanswered questions. However, this exact conclusion is still pretty poetic and open enough to leave some slight feeling of incompleteness and fatality, but at the same time not make you think that the author was just tired of his own story and didn't even want to end it properly. That's really hard to satisfy everyone with the ways the plot ends up. And this way was still cool even if I may want it to be different. And the three afterwords (one in each book) are kinda help to bring you down on Earth again. Because this book is so intense and depressing, that it's really easy to become paranoid. However, these short funny stories featuring Ito himself just make you don't think that much about the real secret of the spiral and etc. It's not like it really that important for this story to work. There also was one "lost chapter" as it says here... And it seems to be a rejected story or something... I mean, it's too different if you compare it to some other stories. And it was meant to be in the first act, because Kirie has long hair here. But I really can't imagine the right place for this story, so maybe that's why it wasn't published when it could make sense. The story is 8/10 enough for me. And to be honest, I love that we can read something after the conclusion. It helps to remember the characters alive. So, to conclude, I want to say, that I really enjoyed this manga and I'm happy I read it as my first original manga. It makes me think much better of japanese comics and creators, than I thought back then. This is just an art is a nutshell. At least visually it is. The story might be stronger, but it's still pretty fine just how it is. My average rating for this book is 9.125, but I want the final verdict to be 9.5 instead of 9. That's just how I feel it. The lost chapter doesn't really matter and the book itself leaves pretty strong impression.

This is already much better, than that awful MCU movie lol... That movie is bad in sooooo many ways... I just don't even want to talk about it. Just be sure, that this book is cool and read it especially if you didn't like the film. Also lol, Vorozheika... It's a russian village with 1 man living there... I know that Marvel's Vorozheika is a different location, but it's just so funny for me as russian...

MAN, Druig's font is so bad... It's hard to read for me even when I know both russian and english... I just can't imagine how bad it feels for an ordinary US reader...

That's just awesome. Why couldn't that movie be like this? There's an actual connection with the Marvel Universe, that we SEE and not just HEAR. And Makkari's powers were just ULTIMATELY shown here. I really miss this kind of superpowers demonstration in movies... In the movie he (She...) is just a generic speedster... It's not interesting at all. But here you really FEEL his power and how cool and complicated it is... You just LIVE through this.

Guys, the movie is a real crap, I swear you... I really didn't understand why the hell Celestials planted Tiamut inside the Earth and they didn't give a shit at all that it will be destroyed... And now I read this comic... And it's awesome... Tiamut was a BAD Celestial which was BURIED inside the Earth by themselves... And it's soooooo much better and reasonable.

The violence here is kinda pointless, but it's still cool, that comics can show you everything, when movies are all the way so polished and not risky at all. However, it doesn't stop them from being bad and illogical... So, Tiamut is awakening. The epic is coming.

Ha-ha, Tiamut definitely liked Tony's armor

The last issue seems kinda dissapointing, because there's no conclusion at all... But the story is still good and maybe I should check the next Eternals run. But now I really want to try the Kirby's one.

It's not a masterpiece, there are some weak spots and it could be even better, but I still like this run. Gaiman did a great work and Romita's art was awesome as always. I really hate the MCU movie and I wonder why they couldn't make it at least as good as this comic was... They took the story plot from here, but changed it and made it almost 100% unreasonable and stupid...

When I was a kid, it was one of my first comics I read. At the time I didn't understand much of this stuff (easter eggs and other things), but I still was amazed by this comic. And now I can say, that it's one of the greatest Spider-Man comics for me for real. Terry & Rachel Dodsons are pretty good team, Terry's art is cinematographic and enough detailed. Story is awesome too. It starts with a Spider-Man laying in the trash... Defeated, he even didn't have enough strength to say people to run. But when Goblin strikes again, he fights and he wins. Aunt May's moving was nice idea at the time too, because it was in the Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2. And I really liked all these dialogues. The only thing, that makes me wonder all the time: if the kidnapper was Scorpion, how (and why) was he always hanging upside down?

Avengers are the Earth's Mightiest Assholes... The fecking Owl helped Spidey, when Avengers literally were trying to kill him or even read morales... And... Is Electro bi? I think, he was about to say he wanted a guy. Maybe even Spider-Man, that would be hilarious.

A-W-E-S-O-M-E I just don't know what to say here... You will never read anything like that in the silver age. Owl twist was cool and unexpected (I read it before, but somehow forgot about it). And the ending... So promising and depressing.

One of the best Spider-Man comics I read. He stucked in the stalemate and could be easily killed, but Black Cat saved the day. Very dramatic. And the conclusion is cool too. Poor Adrian and Max... And Jonah is about to recognize Peter on the photos. But I already know, that he won't.

Frank Cho is a very good artist. I like to see him here sometimes. And the story was nice. Except that part where Spidey literally damages a guy's car for nothing... And that Peter recovered so quickly. Also that's stupid, that Peter and Mary made a list of people who know his secret identity. Osborn literally told him the truth - he shared this secret with another villain. But either Peter forgot about it or didn't believe, I think that's stupid...

What a coincidence... He met mother of Vulture's grandson literally by an accident... And how could he wear spider costume on the last page, when he wore normal pants... Also if you read it online (buy comics!) there's a page missing. I had it in my russian edition of this comic and was really surprised (in the bad way) when didn't find it in the english version.

Well, maybe those spider pants on the last page of the previous issue were really a mistake of drawer, because here he wears normal pants again... I don't know... I like this comic. I certainly DO like this comic... But I just can't justify the "Spider-Man kill" scene. It was so dumb... Okay, it worked, you believed, that it was the real Spider-Man. But you believed, because Venom talked with him. How could he not understand, that the sound was from other side or etc... It's so stupid. And the only guy who is more stupid is Jameson. He's an idiot, really. How could he believe... It was so dumb. Well, what can I say here... It is a very good comic, I even could rate it 10. I want to rate it 10, but... These weird writing moments...

Well, Scorpion... With all the details revealed I can say, that Osborn's plan was too complicated, but it will work. I don't know why he didn't kill May for real, but Peter doesn't know, that she still alive. I can't imagine how hard for him to decide to help Osborn... And why the heck Venom chose Gargan as a new host?

This is a very cool comic, it can even deserve 10, but I pissed about things like Jonah still believing that his son is Spider-Man. Didn't he talk to him? Didn't he actually see, that they were seen together sometimes? His son even was Man-Wolf, how could be Spider-Man? And May again moves in to her old house. What was the point of her moving in the first issue? Make money problems for Peter and MJ? But their problems are gone, because May sold that new apartment... Well, that's just makes the importance of this comic smaller. You don't really feel, that something changed. And that Norman's letter on the last page... What a crazy idiot he is... Also it was dumb, that lightning defeated Goblin and Ock. That's just stupid. But, however, it was an awesome comic and I don't want to lower the rate too much. It was a nice possibility for Peter to atone for the death of Gwen.

You know, I like it. First time I read this comic was the end of 2006. And yeah, it feels much less darker, than previous Mark Millar arcs, but it's still good and interesting to read. There were some events in the Amazing Spider-Man series, so now Peter lives with Avengers and it was very fresh in those years, character gave kinda new feeling for me. The artist is nice too. Yeah, he wasn't that experienced in those years, but I still like his drawings and especially emotions of the characters. Also this comic had a very weird page splitted in two pages, but it had a portrait orientation instead of landscape. Feels kinda unique, never saw something like that anywhere else. Yeah, this comic had some... disgusting moments, like Absorbing Man thrown up, but it can be the kind of a black humor. This story arc is much more funnier, than previous one, so far. Maybe it is nostalgia speaks for me, but sometimes I don't like things when I reread them. It's not that case, this comic is still very enjoyable. P.S. Logan is an idiot indeed.

Ethan is an interesting character and it was so obviously that he is a superhero. Also look at the Absorbing Man. Isn't he a cool villain? Yeah, stupid, but he really could be undefeatable if he was clever. And it was a clever move to take Peter's wallet. That lady had a great potential. I know, that she will d-i-e and it's such a waste... But still, this issue was very cool. Cool action, cool twists, cool dialogues, artist draws even better. And the cover by McNiven is brilliant. Some Superman marvel made here. Hey, Ethan's story really is very similar to Superman's... But it will be revealed later.

Understood now? That's the freaking Superman indeed! But he is... dumb? I think it's a nice parody, at least funny enough.

This guy changed so many costumes... And the conclusion... well... I don't like it :) But other than that was nice comic, I don't understand what to really hate here. Ethan is an interesting character even as a parody and his story arc was fine to read overall. Absorbing man was here cool too. I like this Reginald Hudlin's interpretation of Spider-Man. And I thought, that Marvel forgot about Ethan, but actually he appeared a couple of times later, so... Maybe it wasn't for nothing.

Well... I left the detailed note about The Other on the Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #2, so now only about this issue. And... It's pretty unique. Yeah, Pat Lee isn't the best artist (at least for Spider-Man), but the story was cool. We now see how MJ lives her life and that was made decent. Peter David is awesome as always. I just hate the idea of Morlun being stalked MJ. That's stupid. It had no reason and was almost pointless. But the last MJ monologue (where artist copied one art on 6 frames) just hit me right where it needs to. Really, why Peter didn't made something like that? He was so innovative in his 15 and what is he now? Did character evolve since that? I think not that much, that he could. The whole MKSM series asked the question of Peter's wasted potential. So, it is a nice comic. I didn't like it as a kid, but now, it is fine for me. The problem of harassment is a big issue and MJ can defend herself. But many other women can't and some dumb males use that... Also, she didn't tell Peter about it. Such a relationship it is... They have almost no trust. Peter is so jealous. Yeah, he can't believe, that he deserves this woman, but it doesn't justify his lack of trust.

Not a bad issue overall, but there are some weird ideas... Like aunt May and MJ in Iron Man's armors... Or breaking into castle Doom to use time machine only to see parents... Yeah, it is understandable why they wanted it, it's just seem very strange, that's all. Pat Lee is still not my favourite artist and I hated this issue as a kid. Now, as a grown up person, I can say, that it is not the worst thing I read, but it could be much better. Well, Peter actually said goodbyes to his family and after that he can die much calmer.

Hey, Morlun broke MJ's arm in the previous issue... Didn't they tell Pat Lee to draw her with... (I don't know how to call it) ... that thing, that you wear to heal your broken arm... Nevermind. Spider-Man is dead... Imagine buying a comic about Spider-Man for the first time that starts with this line. And where's no Spider-Man at all... But I like this idea. Idea to show the grief of his relatives. And... Stupid Wolverine. And Stark trying to do something with the body after all. The conclusion gives a hope, but it's just so weird... Peter somehow got pregnant with himself. And how could that cocoon break a window and go so far away... And again Pat Lee... I don't know why his parts of this arc are so strange at all, but he only makes it worse. So, of course it worth reading, at least as a unique Spider-Man comic and of course as a part of the long crossover story. But it isn't that cool as it could be.

This issue is almost pointless for the arc and at all... Yeah, it reads nicely, but it doesn't answer any question. Only makes many more. Many.

That's a strong and mature story. There are some weak spots. Avengers, for example. But I really recommend you to read it. It's very unique Spider-Man comic.

The last volume is different, but it's still very interesting and this story arc will always be in my heart. It is already there for a 15 years.

The conclusion is a bit weird and too sudden, plus the art is kinda dirty sometimes, but this comic was cool, I enjoyed it. I'm even interested in reading the whole event now, so that says something.

Nice beginning, but this artist is bad. Yeah, his style has something, but he's so lazy guy... So many copypasted pictures...

Wow, how bad this cover is... Pointless collage of pictures from the previous issue... The comic itself is nice. Just nice. I remember this series being much better, but it was years ago, so...

It reads super fast and feels like nothing... Not bad, but not good also. Plus there were no explicit content at all. This label feels super pointless in that case.

Heck, I'm tired of copypasted images... It's so hard to not notice that... What's the point to make it so annoying? At least the story was good. And this weak (for this series) arc is ended.

This was better and quite funny. Also the drawer is trying to at least somehow change his copypasted images here, which makes it not that awful.

It was not that interesting. And I appreciate these "book" moments, it's nicely integrated, but feels kinda pointless.

Explicit content for tampon jokes and "meth" word using... Nice. Also AIDS. The format of this issue is interesting... Raw Bendis script + surprisingly nice art. This is an arguable storytelling method, but I think it's still better, than some previous issues. The story was nice, but it feels too short.

Oh my god, this artist is so lazy unprofessional ass... His art is weak, but he's still copying his own pictures on almost every page. Up to 6 times! I understand when Gab Del Otto does this, because his art is a masterpiece and for him it was always really hard to meet the deadline. But this artist is simply one lazy guy... I'm tired of this already! It doesn't help the storytelling at all and makes everything feel so... static? So dead... So lifeless... And I just say nothing about the white space on most of the pages. In one of the previous issues there was almost 33% of space of the page without at least anything... The story wasn't that interesting too, but it's only the beginning, so I forgive it for now.

9 copypasted frames on the one landscape page... 9... Not just 3 or 6 as before. Nine! Heck, I can't stand this. At least this issue had some of the greatest Mark Bagley art... Guys, don't think that I'm a snob or something. It's okay to copy background, because it, well, doesn't move. But people... They are so alive and moving, even when they are not. And the story of this issue was good. Not the best, but much more interesting.

Finally, that was good.

Actually the first really good issue. Only two scenes and all about relationship thing, but it's entertaining and funny. Plus this Doc Ock/Spidey/Johnny scene was so sudden and pointless, that I really liked it. Because... you know... When you read Spider-Man comics, you definitely doesn't think that somewhere near the action two other heroes could be on a date. It makes you think how weird and intertwined marvel world is.

That's promising

Good, but the ending... What the hell?

Not a bad conclusion after all. Much action and some Bagley stuff again. I just don't understand what Madam Web meant about one of them dying... Maybe that's another time where her powers left her.

I think it's good, even if it's so sudden. I like the stylization of this issue and her connection to the Spider-Man. I just think that her origin is super default. You know, just another accident with some radioactive chemicals... Who did Bendis tried to amaze with this?

Hey, it was touching and funny and even interesting. I don't like the idea that she encountered Scorpion and threw up on Thor's boots, but so what.

And that's the beginning of the best arc of this series

And that is a 10

The heck... this ending...

Yeah, why not. That was a good ending. Ready for The Pulse now, which I never read before.

Not the best start at all.

It gets better with an every issue.

The last arc was the best. Overall this series is arguable. It had a boring start, but it got better with every arc. So, I would still recommend you to read it.

Well, I read that Spiderman story around three times in my life and I didn't know, that there also were 3 other stories from Stan and Steve... Non-superheroic stories. To be honest, this Spider-Man origin feels very rushed (only 12 pages), especially if you read Ultimate Spider-Man or saw movies about this hero. But the core elements of the story are excellent. It was really great, especially if you compare it to the other 3 stories. I think, I can rate it 9.0. Not a flawless story, but still awesome. The second one is about an old bell-ringer. A volcano erupted and when all people of the island were fleeing away, that old guy stayed and was... abducted by the aliens? Or the God? Or was it just the interpretation of death? I don't know, it seems very rushy and poorly developed. Yeah, I saw the last day of pompeii reference, but I still don't know... I can rate it only 6.5. Next one was even more weird... The guy was running from the policeman and hid in the museum. And then THE MUMMY just started talking with him. Okay, it is Marvel, it's okay. But then mummy hid him inside of its case and the guy just disappeared. And you know where? In the Egypt! And the Egyptians made a slave of him... Okay, 7.5, this one is at least hilarious and not only stupid. And the last story was about martians. I don't know, it is a very short, but still boring story. However, the ending was... unexpected. It really even can amaze someone... Firstly I thought that it was a drawer's mistake or maybe some "expression" thing that is common in the comics. But no. And I don't want to spoil it. 7.0 Okay, to conclude, Steve Ditko is a legend. I can't say something wrong here about his art. It was great in all stories. But Stan... Okay, I can forgive that for the creation of one of my favourite superheroes of all time. (9 + 6.5 + 7.5 + 7.0) / 4 = 7.5. But I will rate it 8.0 + 0.5 for the iconicness.

The beginning is good enough! I hope the remaining two issues will keep the tone.

The chemistry between Anti-Venom and Punisher is perfect. That's exactly what I wanted from this series - pure action and fan-service. The story is simple and it knows it.

Well, I doubt an Anti-Venom solo story could be any better.

This is a pure action-packed team-up of Anti-Venom and Punisher: you already know what to wait from something like this.

Not bad at all. I decided to check Brit's solo adventures after liking him in the second volume of Guardians of the Globe and kinda getting used to the guy in Invincible comics. Not a bad beginning, pretty character defining. Also I was surprised to see Tony Moore here. It feels really Walking Dead-ish and it's 2003 as well. And black & white, yes.

This is a lot of fun and pretty action packed. Brit and the supporting cast got some development, which is cool, plus the artwork of Tony was outstanding, especially everything with that snow giant. That hit in his eyeball was remarkably awesome. There was one weird scene with that Brit's ex-wife and it felt... odd. Nothing was told about it at all, it just was. Maybe there'll be more info in the next issues, but still, this book would be better of without it. All in all it's a nice read and I really recommend it.

It was enjoyable, but too many things hit the fan here to rate it higher.

For now it seems just like an unnecessary retelling of the first TIH issue with some changes and an awesome art. Tim Sale carrying it here, but I remember it being iconic later.

RIP Tim Sale

banger

That's a very strong issue and I think this scene was in the Incredible Hulk 2008 movie.

I enjoyed this. There isn't that many events, plus some retcons were pointless and some retellings weren't much interesting, but the art and storytelling are great here. I think it's a must-read for every Hulk fan.

For me, it was a very good comic overall. The conclusion was dumb af, as well as their plan. I mean, if Simon was fine for a suicide bomber, why couldn't they use a random zombie? Cut off its arms and jaw and just use Falcon to drop it from the sky... Yeah, that was stupid. But other than that it was cool. I like to see The Walking Dead concept with super heroes and everything. It's not better, than the original Marvel Zombies, but it could be a good limited series. Reminds me of the Halloween one-shot. Simon is funny and that's awesome too, because original MZ were funny too and sometimes they really were more like stupid kids. Hungry, but cute. The art wasn't the best (especially colors), but fine enough. I dunno, it's a nice comic, it's definitely better, than MZ 3-5, but it wasted its potential. And it had a lot of this, you know...

I think it's a good story about bullying. Punisher seems to be almost useless here, but so what, the story is still good. Ha-ha, I can't imagine how it is for Flash to see someone like him in his past days... There's also a reprint of the first appearance of The Punisher in TASM, but who cares about reprints...

I really missed 10/10s. This run... It's the most iconic Punisher book. The movie and game of 2004 are based mostly on this exact comic. In 90's Punisher had not the best time in comics... His longest second volume was closed and after that it were mostly limited series and him as a guest star. He wasn't anywhere in comics since august 1999. And now, in February of 2000 Frank is back. Welcome back, Frank! This exact issue is simply great. It's one of the best starts a comic series can have. It's focused, cinematographic, well-paced, not boring and at the same time it has sense. I may hate Ennis when he goes over the edge in the Boys, but here's the exact amount of brutality and gore this comic needs. There's even a humor of some sort. And Garth really feels Frank exactly how this character would be in real life. Not a glimpse of fear on his face, he's brutal, but not heartless, he may give a second chance or take it if you aren't using it, he may spare you of the punishment if he deems you innocent. And he has a motivation, which Ennis remembers and can't let you forgive it. You may also think of Dillon as a so-so artist, but back then in 2000 he was really cool, his "The Face" wasn't that annoying. I really love his artwork here, even more, than in PunisherMax, where it was sometimes even creepy. So for me it's one of the easiest 10/10's in my life. This comic really doesn't have ANY flaw at all. Off to an awesome start.

This first page with a transparent Frank from the alternative cover of this comic is weird... Reminds me of the worst Venom run (2003). However, Dillon still draws cool here, nice angles sometimes. Ennis' part of work is good as well, but the first issue was better. The epilogue is pretty intriguing though, it seems to be a new enemy for Frank and it's crazy...

Daredevil and Punisher scene is a pure gold

It continues to show us The Holy and also introduces 2 more new villains, but I think it's too much... I already want to see at least one of them against the Punisher in action and not just them doing their casual stuff... Also there was a pissing dog, now I recognize good ol' Garth!

It's cool how his neighbours took care of him! However, the pace isn't that cool at this point. But the Russian is coming! Which is maybe my all-time favourite Punisher's enemy. The only idea is already so weird, that it's cool. I mean... "The" Russian... This character is dumb on the level where I can't dislike it.

Oh, okay, that was only the introduction of the Russian (which was perfect, by the way). I like that Ennis gave Frank at least some time to recover. Good issue all around. The scene with piercing guy tortures was even adapted in the 2004 movie.

It's a little bit slow. I understand, that Ennis wanted to make the reader understand what the Russian is capable of. And it certainly works. But there's also 3 more bad guys who haven't even meet the Punisher yet... And there's also a few issues left. I don't want them all to be killed in one big mess...

The battle with the Russian is a masterpiece, an iconic scene, that was adapted in both movie and game of 2004, only in the movie The Russian was silent and boring. However, I don't like how everything else interrupts that fight scene... This issue would be better if there was only that fight. But well, it will continue in the next issue. Also I feel suspicious about these villains teaming-up and going for the Punisher. I'm starting to remember, that Ennis will simply flush them all in a toilet at once... P.S. don't you dare saying the Russian scene wasn't great... He's so cool and amusing.

It's just great. The conclusion of the Russian battle was better in the movie, but it's nice here too. A bit too funny, but not typical at least. The last pages of this comic are awesome as well. That's the Punisher fans love and gangsters fear. And yeah, now it's totally clear, that trio of vigilantes is here just for fun. Frank will shoot them all at once, but I think I can bear with it.

I don't know what to say... Great conclusion! That was an awesome run for Punisher and Marvel comics both.
