Posted April 28, 2011 I don't think I've had so much fun reading a comic in recent memory than I have with the latest Spiderman, it is probably the least decompressed comic I've seen in recent years (save Jeff Parker's Thunderbolts/Hulk). It was brimming full of stuff! Zombie Pirates! Booty! Sinister Six! The FF! Tattoos! Infestation! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 28, 2011 Just read that. Thought it was ok but nothing brilliant. Im still a bit sick of Amazing Spider-Man at the moment, theres so consistancy with the art teams which has been dipping in and out way too often. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 28, 2011 I've enjoyed all of Big Time apart from the FF centric issue, then the FF centric issue, and is this issue FF centric too? :/. If I wanted to read about the FF, I'd buy the FF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 29, 2011 Just read The Mighty Thor #1. As an issue of Thor it was probably fine (I dont really read enough Thor to say) but I really dont understand why they bothered relaunching it in time for the movie if the first issue they put out is absolutely filled with confusing events that you would probably only understand if you'd been reading the previous stories. This was a perfect chance to get people more interested in Thor and to start off with a simple story that could ease people in and I think theyve failed completely.

Posted April 29, 2011 On the flipside, Fraction came on less than a year ago, and I'd imagine he wouldn't have been happy to have been told to do X to his story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 4, 2011 Ultimate Hawkeye, four issue mini by Hickman. Bound to be fantastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 4, 2011 anything written by Hickman is usually good at the moment, think I'm going to drop the ultimate line after TDOSM arcs though. Need to cut back my spending Fear Itself is shaping up rather nicely, issue 2 was really good imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 5, 2011 Sweet can't wait to read it. Hopefully my guy can do a delivery today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 5, 2011 I thought Fear Itself #2 was ok but it was obviously being written for the trade, something that annoys me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 5, 2011 Just caught up on Secret Avengers. It's really solid- even if super hero spies is a bit far fetched it's still pretty kick ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 5, 2011 I think I got about halfway through the first arc of Secret Avengers before I dropped it, I cant remember exactly what it was I didnt like now but I just didnt get along with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 5, 2011 Yet another new trade: Now that is a beauty! Cannot believe fraction actually axed congress! That is ballsy! Really actually enjoyed it, found myself caught up in the suspense of it all. Did anyone read X-force 9? I can't work out what to make of it, it was wonderful and tragic but...short? Does anyone fancy recommending a trade for me? Anything in the last 2 years (unless its obscure) I will have read. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
