Hope everyone is doing well. Here are my most recent reads:
102. Amazing Spiderman 42-- One of the highlights of the Spencer run so far. This is his "Kid Who Collected Spiderman"
103. Antman 3-- So weird, but so fun.
104. Dr. Strange: Surgeon Supreme-- I liked most of Waid's previous run. The art here from Kev Walker is great!
105. Hellions 1---- This is a book I had no idea I needed. Love this concept so far!
106. Immortal Hulk 33(750)--- great!
107-112 Flash 86-752
113-114. Once and Future 2-3
115. Road to Empyre
116. Strange Adventures 1
117. Thor 4
118. King Thor 4
Mutant Massacre
119-122. X-men 110-113
123. New Mutants 26
124-125- Thor 273-274
126-128. X Factor 9-11
129. Power Pack 27
Back when this came out I only read the X-men and Thor books and X-factor #10. Even then I thought it was cool how this crossover worked. Now after reading the entire thing for the first time, I'm truly impressed by the quality and cohesive story-telling among all these various titles. The editorial tightness to telling a big cohesive story doesn't sacrifice enjoyment of the individual issues. Each story has value.
I can't help but contrast this with many of today's crossover events that feel completely disposable. I feel the talent of today can create something as fun and satisfying as the Mutant Massacre, but there seems to be a lack of strong editorial guidance in the Big 2 today.
