Comics Fondle

Blah again–and nice photo-reference of Halle Berry by the way. Too much dumb plot, not enough character or solid activity.

Better than I expected, but it’s an all-action issue–unless you count the jokes. But not as crappy as the series has been.

Pure functional storytelling–Quicksilver gets his powers back to allow future appearances. Lame but okay.

David sets the comic up for a nice in-series reset then fouls it with a bad close. He also makes it clear the book needs Layla.

Maybe I just don’t like Raimondi anymore. Some bumps but a fine action issue, the best David’s written for the series probably.

Terrible art (it’s impossible to follow the action) and poor writing. David never manages to write it as a standard team comic.

A badly paced action issue masquerading as a talking heads one. This De Landro guy’s art sucks, particularly for a Marvel book.

The series standard–lots of character, lots of talk–is very welcome but Raimondi’s art is off. Way too photo-referenced here.
