I quite liked the first story, the first JJJ story, the Bar With No Name story, and maybe more controversial but the Gog story was fun to me.
Most of those were drawn by Ryan Ottley so I think that might be coloring my ranking as I absolutely loved seeing him draw this book, he brought the right flavor to the world and the characters and it was great seeing Marvel go outside their usual box and get some big artistic talent from elsewhere (same for Gleason honestly). I think that was Nick Lowe responsible for that at least, and I give him a lot of flack but those big gets early on were a job well done. More recently however, eh- this book has not looked good most of the time. Bagley's been nice to see but he doesn't seem like he's really on his game.
