May 16, 2013 10:57 pm I enjoyed the film a lot, but that "KHAAAANNN" bit actually DID make me cringe. The nods & parallels to Wrath Of Khan were mostly handled perfectly, but that moment was a little over the top in my opinion. Still, most of the movie was pretty incredible. The film succeeded in being an awesome action-flick, while also managing to establish some genuine character development. The Kirk we get at the end of this flick feels a lot more seasoned and mature than the guy we saw at the end of 2009 Star Trek. In fact, the whole crew feels a lot more like the Enterprise crew we're introduced to in the original series than they did in the last film.

May 4, 2013 1:23 am Very cool movie. Not as good as the first, but a LOT better than part 2. I dug the whole Post-Avengers-Stress-Disorder angle; it made me remember my favorite part about this character: He's smart & super-rich, but at the end of the day, he's still just a dude who gets mixed up in fights with gods, aliens, monsters and super-beings. Stark is the easiest of the Big-Guns to identify with, and that gives the Iron Man films an angle that's missing in Thor & Captain America. The Mandarin thing actually threw me for a big loop. I kept expecting him to say "Surprise. I was only PRETENDING to be an old dude pretending to be a super-villain." Thumbs-up for the post-credit scene as well. The way it tied back to the very beginning of the movie was a nice touch.
May 2, 2013 11:31 pm I finally got around to reading both issue 1 and this issue. OUTSTANDING stuff. The story and premise are incredible and the art is beautiful. THIS is a book I wish came out more than once a month.

April 30, 2013 10:31 am Why was the film released in Europe before the US? Not that it's a big deal to me; I was just wondering.

April 27, 2013 5:44 pm I agree; this issue was pretty fun. I was on the fence after issue 1, but I'm fully invested now. I just wish this came out twice a month, instead of monthly.
