Calliope’s Quick Fire Reviews Marvel Edition
by calliopes on March 24th, 2009Amazing Spider-Man #588
Another not so great issue of the book, with really rushed looking artwork by the normally solid JR JR. This was the big pay off for all the plotlines since BND and it really fell flat. The only interesting part was the last page with Norman Osborne meeting Menace and welcoming her to the family. This book needs another reboot. 1 out of 5 Spider-Villains.
LEAVE IT ON THE RACK.
Indie reviews late Sunday or Monday if possible.
Amazing Spider-Man #580
Spider-Man battles the Blank, in a done in one fairly uneventful story. The art by Lee Weeks is a big improvement for the book. 3 out of 5 Spider-Villains.
Astonishing X-Men Ghost Boxes #2 (of 2 )
2 more alternate reality stories, including a Cyclops suicide story. Still not worth the $3.99 for only 16 pages of story, but more interesting than the first part. 2 out of 5 X-Men.

Wolverine’s Black Leather Outfit from X-Men
Indie books either tonight or tomorrow.
Captain America #44
A flashback to a Winter Soldier moment in China, and Cap VS Batroc the Leaper. Good Pacing, Good Art. Overall 4 out of 5 New Avengers.
Daredevil # 113
Lady Bullseye continues with the "death" of the White Tiger. Artwork is hit and miss, Brubaker is a very solid storyteller. 3 out of 5 Marvel Zombies.
There may be some more later if there is time this weekend:
Amazing Spider-Man #577
Just a horribly ugly issue artwork wise. For a major book in the Marvel U to look like this is a shame.
Zero out of 5 Spider-Villains. Just like the Black Cat this issue is bad news.
Justice Society of America Kingdom Come Special : Superman #1
A simply stunning book artwork wise. Great origin on how Super-Man KC made it to Earth 1. 5 out of 5 Dark JLAers.
