    You can blame Howard Mackie for turning the whole concept of the Spirit of Vengeance into a convoluted web of barely comprehensible nonsense that no other writer wants to bother with. Before the 90s,...

    That's about the only way this dumb gimmick can have a sliver of chance at surviving cancellation before even hitting double digits: a Lee Price situation. Hood's only appeal is the cathartic fun in...

    Are you kidding me? Alejandra actually got WORSE and even more obnoxious as the book went on. If anything, they should've cancelled it at 5 before the Fear Itself tie-in made the book even more...

    Judging from the relaunch synopsis, whoever the replacement guy is is clearly a villain and that the story seems to be more focused on Johnny "undergoing an epic journey" to become GR again, which...

    A weak end to what seemed like a promising start. Percy got rid of the only character he put any real focus on during this 21 issue run, and I seriously doubt his storytelling style can improve by...

    Yeah, I'm out. Just more of the same gimmickry over substance. Would've been a good opportunity to do something fresh with Danny's current look and explore what he's doing now. But no. Instead...

    Sara WAS in Brisson's book. In fact, she was practically the tritagonist of that short lived run. She sought out Danny and practically forced him out of his pity-me drunken stupor so that he can...

    Well, for what it's worth, Issue 21 comes with a "Foreshadow" variant cover which usually means that the comic is due for a relaunch with the same team, just as they've done before with Zdarsky's...

    Well, I sure hope that's the case, because I was disappointed with Hood's role in this Annual, tbh. Didn't even get to interact with JB/GR nor develop any kind of antagonistic dynamic with him....

    I think I'm starting to get what Percy has in mind for Talia. A love interest who can actually relate to JB's lot and understand him in ways that Roxanne never could (or Stacy towards Dan). Both...

    Another thing I enjoyed about Bram, besides the narrative contrast to Johnny and Logan's characters, is how he came across as a realistic and believable villain, at least for me. No mustache...

    While far from perfect, I found the Weapons of Vengeance mini more enjoyable than Mackie's throwback comic. It had clearer direction, tighter focus, a more interesting plot, and better written...

    This DK mini has been disappointing throughout, but not surprising. It's almost funny as it is pathetic how, out of all the main topics Mackie could've tackled, he chose to once again talk about the...
