Comic Reviews: X-Force #14

X-Force #14 written by Simon Spurrier, pencils and cover by Rock-He Kim, colors by Jose Villarrubia

I’ve been reading this series since the beginning, and it’s satisfying to see everything coming together. We are moving ever so close to the end of the series. This issue pulls no punches. You really get the feeling that this is all or nothing; X-Force’s final confrontation with Fantomex.

Comic Reviews: Amazing X-Men #15

Amazing X-Men #15 - writing by Christopher Yost, pencils by Jorge Fornes, colors by Rachelle Rosenberg, cover by Kris Anka.

This is my first ever issue of Amazing X-Men. I just couldn’t help but pick up the return of the Juggernaut. He’s definitely in my top 5 favorite villains, probably in my top 3. Lists of favorite character always ebb and flow, but I think it’s #1 Electro, #2 Boomerang, #3 Juggernaut, #4 Dr. Doom, #5 Bullseye. I’ve always liked the Juggernaut… but this infamous youtube video from years ago pushed it over the edge. (Caution: there's some language in the video.) From that point, I loved the Juggernaut.

I usually try to write spoiler-free reviews. For this issue, however, I don’t feel like there’s any big “BAH GAWD!” moment at the end, so I will say this now…

Comic Reviews: Ant-Man #1

I think it’s getting to the point where anything that Nick Spencer writes must immediately go to my pull list. His Superior Foes of Spider-Man was one of the best runs I’ve read in a long long time, and Ant-Man looks to be a great follow up. The sarcasm, wit, and honesty he gives his characters is refreshing.
