Anyone else check it out today?

I did. It wasn't bad but I was hoping for more horror the way it's been hyped up. In many ways it's more of a "secret agent"/action piece.

Just because there are monsters doesn't make something effective horror.

I'll check out next issue to see if I want to continue.

The cover is not really attractive.

I enjoyed it. It wasn't horror, but more like Saturday morning, or at the very least Disney Afternoon Gargoyles.

Some good action, drama, the theme of Indigenous peoples trying to make it work, I liked it.

As for the appearance of Red Wolf, this is the same Red Wolf from the 1872 Battleworld and Occupy Avengers, right? If so, I'm liking what he's becoming. Just a highly skilled operative guy who takes on some super powered baddies.

I didn't even manage to finish it. It's the kind of mediocre comic written by a celebrity that comes out every 6 months and that everybody will forget before the end of the year. It's not that it's bad, it's just that it's uninteresting, the art is bland and the writing is very amateurish.

It's quite a drastic change to the design of the Werewolf.

... the art is bland ....

I'm really sorry to hear this. I was spoiled on Gene Colan's art on Tomb of Dracula back in the day. I was really hoping that the Werewolf's newest installment would help return some of that prestige to the horror genre. Miss those old books. Oh well. Hope Marvel keeps trying, but puts more of an effort into it next time.

I was disappointed with the book. I was expecting a cool horror book. Instead it seemed to be just another superhero book.

Also, I was disappointed with Scot Eaton's art. He has done so much better work.

The cover is not really attractive.

The cover was the best thing about the book. Okay, maybe the second best thing. It was good to see Red Wolf.

Battleworld are alternate universe characters, aren't they?

Didn't read Occupy Avengers, but I'm pretty sure it's the 616 Red Wolf that has been around since the 1960s.
