    Very exciting. Spencer has shown he can play the long game (say what you will about Secret Empire, it was well-built up from Standoff) and he has a strong sense of humour. His work feels rather...

    Quite a simple read - reminds me of some of the less good issues of Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane (teeny drama and all that). Enjoyable, if not groundbreaking. I think they ruined the series by ageing...

    I'd be happy with this. For now he's going to be tainted with Secret Empire (which wasn't all that bad from a general writing perspective), but Spencer has proved he can write mature, he can write...

    I'm completely pretending this is a new Ultimate universe where Ultimatum and Ultimates 3 didn't happen. And that's the only difference.

    Really loved the Gauntlet to Grim Hunt phase. The plot threads all seemed to build up extremely well. It does help that I read it all in one sitting, compared to issue by issue as of late. It changed...

    Really don't agree with number 4. Homecoming's humour was well-placed, and actually funny. The Amazing Spider-Man's humour was juvenile and crude, and...

    Wow, so the joke about Wolverine being in every book is about to come true?

    Ultimate X-Men was my first proper comic book series and it still holds up as one of the tightest runs I've ever read (no dangling plot threads, plot threads which slowly build in each arc) ...

    Off the top of my head - Sean McKeever is great at character-driven work. Lovely heartfelt concepts for most of his works too, shame his plots generally don't stand up to the brilliance of his...

    A little bit disappointing - not because it was bad but because it wasn't brilliant. It was just ... good.

    Matt and Jessica really shone, and I loved Luke Cage's incredulous, sort of...

    I totally don't understand how to read this series! The tone - the tone! How can one writer manage to have so many exclamation marks on one page!

    The exclamation marks really explain the entire...

    As I said, I don't know her as a character, so yeah, I don't get the character as you do. But I read her in satellite books, such as Spider-Woman, where even her best friend doesn't want to speak to...

    I must admit I haven't read much of Captain Marvel, besides team books and crossovers. But from what I've gathered from her she's this sort of stubborn hard-ass who plays it by the books (Civil War,...

    Ultimate Reed Richards - The Maker.

    I didn't enjoy Bendis's and Fialkov's reasons for Richard's turn, and I absolutely detested Humphries's take of Richards being a 1000 year old who can't get...

    On an individual scale there will definitely be some people who, upon discovering they're mutants, will try to be superheroes. It's so ingrained into our culture that people are bound to try. They'll...

    I agree with you that he's joined the morally grey section of characters, but the problem with Cyclops is that he was backed into a corner when he made the majority of those choices with decimation....

    Bendis for sure, hands down. For a man known to overly decompress, his run on Daredevil had so many twists and turns to the status quo that it felt refreshing reading every arc because you knew...

    I have no specific examples (I can't remember any time this has been addressed) but if I were to think of an explanation would be that whilst Uncle Ben's death was his fault, it was indirectly....

    It's only after The Dark Knight that Batman has become super popular. Batman Begins only grossed $374.2 million worldwide - compare that to the gross of Fantastic Four, $330.6 million, which also...

    One More Day.

    Keeping all of the aspects (selling his marriage to Mephisto to save Aunt May) so it stays canon, but changing how it was told. Mephisto could cheat the Parkers out of it, or force...

    Bendis brings his A-Game to Ultimate Spider-Man so it's no surprise he's at his funniest. Of all the Spider-Man scribes I've read, he's had the most accessible jokes, which I measure by if you can...

    It's meant to be all-ages, and it would be preferable if it's affordable for kids with their pocket money, or for the pester power appeal. I'd love to be able to see a new generation growing up with...
