Here we go with a secondary rating system in effect :

 

Amazing Spider-Man #582

amsp582  Second part of a lackluster Molten Man return. Not much going on in this book due to revolving creative teams. Only stunt covers appear to be the saving this book from horrible sales numbers.  (I’m looking at you Colbert and Obama variants). 2 out of 5 Spider-Villains.  Leave it on the Rack.

Cable #10

cab10  This is the most enjoyable X-book on the stands right now. We see Bishop meet a mysterious stranger in a bar, The X-Men go on a hunt for him, and Cable gives the mutant girl a name after a tragedy. 4 out of 5 X-Men.

im9   Tony Stark and Maria Hill are declared fugitives and priority number 1 by Norman Osborne . Stark puts into place a plan to wipe his memories to keep data out of Osborne’s hands. Decent issue. 3 out of 5 New Avengers.

Marvel Zombies 3 #4 (of 4)

mz4 The final issue shows Machine Man taking out most of the Zombie-verse and Jocasta and Morbius fighting on Earth. Sets the stage for MZ 4 Return of the Midnight Sons, who will be universe jumping Zombie hunters. Decent Issue. 3 out of 5 Marvel Zombies.
