Calliope’s Quick Fire Reviews Marvel Extended Edition


A little more in depth reviews of this past week’s books from Marvel, rather than the usual 2-3 line quick fire format:

Featured Book :

New Avengers #48

nav48  The beginning of Dark Reign brings about another status quo change for the New Avengers as the team adds the new Captain America to their ranks, and Iron Fist takes a leave of absence. Bendis wrote a very intriguing tale this time around. Normally not much happens in this book as we are usually stuck with a bunch of talking heads, or flashbacks or side stories. This was a very enjoyable read with some nice artwork as well. Their is one other major story point and the is that Luke Cage is now ready to work for Norman Osborn in order to find his missing child. This could be a very intriguing storyline if played correctly. Overall this book earns 4 out of 5 New Avengers.

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.
