September 27, 2011 2:43 am Vol 1 was great - best collection of the year! Carla Speed McNeil's writing and art are incredible - complex narratives and immersive world. Great science fiction comic.

September 20, 2011 4:25 pm I was slow to this title because I wasn't interested in the Red Hulk character. Jeff Parker's writing, however, never disappoints! This and Thunderbolts are among marvel's best books currently due to his deft story crafting.
September 3, 2011 9:45 pm "..., I probably will not read every single Aquaman story." LOL - you don't sound convinced. As I read the later half of Supergods, I was struck by how much GM loves vinyl clothing.
August 3, 2011 12:30 pm Great episode!!  It was really great to see and hear scott snyder talk about his work.
July 29, 2011 11:47 am So while the Hulk is trashing Rio, our 'heroes' are hiding in a garage making out.  No need to get in communication with the rest of the team - they can just watch the video recap when you get back.  Absolutely no drama since they are telling us the story as a flashback.  This book makes me hate super hero comics the most.  How long to we have to listen to spider woman whine about NOTHING? 

"I don't know why I am here"  - funny neither do I.
"Why try to do what we do if you dont think you can, at least, at the very least, answer the call when the call is given?"  So you answer calls when the calls are given, not when they arent given.  interesting....PLEASE GO AWAY, there are many superheroes that would love to take your place on the team.
June 1, 2011 2:03 am Did spiderman really barf twice because the hulk ate an egg?  I dont get it?

I can't take Bendis writing anymore.  616 Spiderman is totally asinine and flippant, Cage and Jones sassy couple schtick is super played out.  Please someone give him a job in TV!  

1/5
May 23, 2011 5:04 pm This book continues to be awesome fun!  Yet to be disappointed by an issue.  Great art, great stories.  One of the few comics that really makes me laugh out loud.
April 26, 2011 6:25 pm This story arc was average at best, IMO.  The drama is low considering Hood never does much with the gems - we are instead told.  Thanos was just a lame illusion to fool the reader - Parker Robbins doesn't even know who Thanos is! In the end, a single punch ends the entire conflict. The entire cast of the Illuminati, Secret, New, and adjective-less Avengers are on hand and the only character that seems to be aware of what's going on is Rulk. Very little imagination here. 

2/5.
