Calliope’s Quick Fire Reviews Marvel Extended Edition

December 30, 2008 in Avengers, Comic Books, Dark Reign, Fantastic Four, Hulk, Marvel, Secret Invasion, Spider-Man

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.
