Calliope’s Quick Fire Reviews Round 1

November 22, 2008 in Comic Books, DC, Fantastic Four, Marvel, Reviews, Spider-Man

There may or may not be a round two this week. I will see how much time I have.

Amazing Spider-Man #578

amsp578  Great Issue writing wise by Mark Waid, but once again the artwork is only so-so. For a flagship book the art should be much better. 3 out of 5 Spider-Villains.3starsin

 

Avengers/Invaders #6

avi6 The original Torch leads the life model decoys on a revolt and Toro visits his own grave. Not sure where continuity wise this takes place. 3 out of 5 Marvel Zombies.

Tangent Superman’s Reign #9 (of 12)

tangent  This series just seems to be spinning its wheels until the last issue. The end can not come soon enough.  0 out of 5 JLA-ers. Just like Martian Manhunter I wish this series were dead.

The Flash # 246

fl246  Another mediocre issue of this title. I am hoping the relaunch with Barry Allen makes the Flash interesting again. 1 out of 5 Flashes.

Ultimate Fantastic Four #58

uff58  The end is near for this title and the entire line. The Thing brings the Mole Man to the surface to save the Invisible Woman. 3 out of 5 FF-ers.
