A nice wrapup of a series that I came in about halfway for. It could have used some more polish, but what we ended up with was still a fantasticly drawn and scripted book.

I’m really digging this series of unrelated stories that have been released previously by PUBLISHER, but I happened to miss.

I’m also really digging this series of unrelated one shot stories. LOG and BIRD are amazing analogues or Conan.

Final Issue?

There’s an audio version of this story as well. It’s not my cup of tea, but I love seeing this type of medium flipping.

This story is absolutely bonkers in the best way possible.

The first couple issues of Scrimshaw had me on the fence, but now that they’re moving the story along, I’m digging what they’re putting down.

A time jump didn’t help me feel connected to the story, I barely recognize everyone involved, which is a shame, I was just starting to feel like this was a great story.

First issue of a new mark millar series, with a very strong start.

Remember that Mobster episode from TOS? It’s back, taking some really cool leaps of imagination to make that planet less of a joke.

Chewing and Lando enter into a space race with an unexpected informant. The A story is much better than the B story this time around.

I’m not sure if I’m on board with every backstory for Finn making him out to be a saint amongst sinners, never having to pull the trigger when ordered to kill innocents.

Someone’s put a bounty out on Darth Vader! I bet it was the Emperor!

Franks back in the US and with some IRL message on how he feels about police using his logo while being cops. Spoiler: cops should used The Punisher’s methods or logos.

American Carnage, speaking only as I could about a comic I can’t remember much of even though I read it just last night.

Lady venom? ok.

A confusing but satisfying end to this character’s original origin story that isn’t for the character you thought it was originally an origin for.

Drug money and family do not mix. Family and fires don’t mix either.

I think I’m coming down on the side of not liking this character. She seems too contrived.

What happens when the most powerful force user in the galaxy is told to do everything a “Grand Moff” says, “to the letter”? Obviously the Moff dies, but it’s a fun journey to witness him being murdered in a painful way, along with most of his bridge staff.

Hondo! Love the guy on TV, he’s a little less tolerable on the printed page, but I think he’s written pretty well in this issue.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Dude, Captain America is a CAT in this.

You’ll never believe who’s behind Mysterio’s attacks!

I honestly thought I would struggle to get through this, there are a LOT of character and team profiles here, but this is some of the best written and laid out bios I’ve seen in comics.

Finally! The second issue, so now I guess I can star reading the other …3 that I have?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I missed an issue somewhere, but this series is still kicking butt.

I’m not a fan of the character’s lips on this cover, they seem way too pouty. The story is dope though.

I love Livewire as a character, but I really feel like they’re slow walking her here.

Soon to be a major motion picture! (maybe?) The original concept was interesting, but these last couple issues have really struck me as a great turn.

A good start to the series, but I’m somewhat confused by a few things. Hopefully the questions I have will be cleared up in future issues.

Purchased, but did not read, I missed the first couple issues and I need to get those to make sense of everything.

The end of the current writer’s story, it ends well enough with a planet almost exploding but not quite, much to the dismay of the death cult that had gathered to watch the fireworks. They didn’t go away empty handed though. . .

I love Doctor Aphra, but getting her mixed up with an galactic sniper rifle is weird. Enjoyable, but weird.

Pew Pew Pew. Hard to write a story about a team you know is all going to die, right? Wrong!

Remember that time Spidey went Far From Home and fight very bad guys?

Remember that time that Spidey had to break up a marriage or two?

I’m torn on this series now, is it good? Do I still like it?

For a series that had so much outrage and indignation, this ultimately turned out to be a heartfelt story about how punching things isn’t always the best answer and that sometimes love and healing is what’s needed to make the world a better place.

The first issue of a new storyline and not much has changed, which isn’t to say that this was a bad issue, I’m just happy that the quality of the book has stayed about the same.

They’re really making Phasma out to be irredeemably evil in this one shot. What a horrible character!

This was back when Carnage was a bad guy but the art wasn’t all too obvious about his misdeeds.

This is a great example of a really gross art style for a really gross character, and I mean that in the best way. Both Venom and Carnage are horror characters that get a soft lens in most of their appearances, but this issue really brought their horror roots to the forefront.

Dan Abnett continues to impress with his story set in my favorite time period of the Valiant universe. Also, there’s more War Mother, which I also always appreciate.

End of the series and it feels rushed and confused.

The story and art both feel incredibly rushed and unpolished, I’m sure IDW can do better in the future.

End of the series and it feels rushed and confused.

I’m still missing four issues of this series, so I’m still holding off on reading this. Recent developments have reminded me that I love Kirkman’s writing, so I’ve bumped these issues up on my wishlist. Here’s hoping I”m able to read them all in 2019 and this doesn’t spill over to 2020!

Ah, the first book I actually read. I love the idea of a series of looking to an entire galaxy’s reaction to someone as dangerous as Vader running around with them.

I like the concept of Toyo Harada, wish he survived longer than he did, seems like he would be useful in the current Valiant universe.

In which Frank leaves Bagalia and does his best Rambo impression on a forest island surrounded by Hydra.

It does not end well for the men in green!

Purchased, but did not read. I didn’t need to though, as I remember this story, it’s amazing!

The man that runs with balls doesn’t run at all!

A memorial day / fourth of july issue in which we are reminded that back in the 90’s there was a brave toy line manufacturer that made the decision to kill off entire teams of Joes.

I love what this series is doing, every issue is another ball of crazy that gets unspun.
