August 26, 2013 4:41 pm All great points, especially point number 3.

July 29, 2013 6:37 pm Agreed. I would also add that his work on Dr. Strange, especially his first run in the late 60s, was absolutely hypnotic. When I think of the artists from that late 60s period who were really key in breathing new life into the medium, I think Kirby, Steranko, Adams, and Colan.

July 29, 2013 3:05 pm Wow, was it really as late as issue 7? I could have sworn it was a few issues earlier. I did remember Conway did the first issue, and then Goodwin and Fox did an issue or two. I wonder what was going on that the book kept changing hands so quickly? But man did they make a good choice in giving it to Wolfman. He and Gene, and Tom Palmer, really had a great run on this series.

July 29, 2013 2:51 pm Hate to be a picker of nits, but Marv Wolfman did not write the first few issues of the series. He came on with issue 4 or 5.

March 25, 2013 5:25 pm Love this book. Not quite sure what others were expecting, but it seems like Remender is going for part Claremont X-Men, part Busiek Avengers, and that works for me.

March 19, 2013 3:22 pm Forget about the "new costumes." Bendis revealed online that while that was the original plan, they have since decided to hold off on the new costumes until later in the year, to tie into the 50th Anniversary stuff coming up.

March 11, 2013 3:14 pm Why would anyone swipe their finger across the screen to change "pages" in an Infinite comic? It just gets in the way and disrupts your concentration on the story. A simple tap on the right edge of the screen is sufficient.

March 9, 2013 2:04 am This series continues to impress, and your review highlights many of the reasons for that. Very well done.

March 4, 2013 7:36 pm Some of the specific things that I've really liked about Marquez, beyond the generally nice layouts and such, are that he actually draws the teen 5 as teens; he draws an especially nice Jean, which really shines through in the emotional close-ups; and (pet peeve of mine) he usually draws characters that are speaking with mouths that are open and moving.

March 4, 2013 7:21 pm I'm with you. I've found myself having just a slight preference for Marquez's art. But I'm lovin' both of them on the book.
