Heartbreaking! I'd missed Arrakko & enjoyed the journey through it. Becoming a Babel was Horrifying, Tragic, & a testament to Love. Franklin's last hope, "artist raised by scientists", it just got to me. A trio of bittersweet stories that set the mood for this event.

Hurtling towards the big conflict now. Under city brings so many questions, but the design is incredible. Okoye & Shuri's conversation was paced so well throughout this issue. T'Challa gets cool upgrades, I'm looking forward to Shuri unleashed. (& Ororo joining the fray‽)

I enjoy this cast playing an RPG come to life: fun! Who could bring a game to life? Nightmare. Wanda's right about reading instructions. He thinks he can defeat Wanda with Chance!? Of course she can roll what she wants. Like the team up, & the hunt for a bigger bad is on!

Anna has always been terrible, but she doubles down here. Kaine's a clone of Morlun this time? Fine. The animal squad are funny for a distraction. The MJ/Anna scene was just insulting to read, glad May knows but she's giving Anna too much credit & Pete not enough.

I really thought this was ending last issue, but here's a new story! Logan really cuts through all of Pete's BS in a few sentences. It's Vermin! Every time they're manipulated into a mob I pity them. Poor Varys! Morlocks can't catch a break. Sad issue.

A little reminder of Planet Hulk for its anniversary. Hiroim and Korg are together again (& Miek is here too)! Hulk fights some creatures and then some robots. I liked Planet Hulk when it happened, this was a very good read, but didn't make me want to go back to it.

Love a horror anthology. Technobabble in Story 1 was great: "monitor your microplastics"! Blade being had by a child-vamp is a little silly, but fun action. Cursed Iron Man helmet is really spooky. Stories & Art are (a little) gimmicky, but soooo enjoyable.

More backstory, and this time it's a secret religious cult that's into hitting kids with sticks. Oh, the run is named for a prophesy; that won't be an issue later. Theocracies can never be trusted. The story is good, but a little bogged down for me.

The art on this Punisher-AU-prequel sets the tone perfectly: A little Noir, a bit of Blood, a Lot of Violence. Revenge, mob bosses, torture, bruised and broken bodies, and a vicious doppelganger Zombie. Curious how this ends up as the future Frank.

Mojo is eternally, delightfully, disgustingly ridiculous. Love the X-Babies as production crew. Bounty Hunter Patsy (with ulterior motives)! Bishop with a winter soldier arm! Poor hornless Rhino. Kraven is disturbing, & Simon needs to get it together, but I'm liking the team. Fun romp.

Zane‽ 10 years doesn't seem enough for Victor to have a son who then has a son with Laura. Was hoping for more from Gabby & Akihiro, at least they are kinda together. $10 says Doug is lying about Arakko. Julian deserved this. Frustrating set-up but I want to know more.

I'm very interested in the Kree/Skrull politics, but this is mostly about the prophecy of Veranke. It's a Shi'ar Chameloid! And of course Kl'rt leans into the zealotry & madness. Speaking of madness: Max! But is it 616 Max or a variant with Cosmic GR? Great Plot.

I actually like the idea of a symbiote named "Freedom" just hanging around in the woods. Unfortunately living freely in the woods is "toxic" but a murderous killbox is "healing". No way Eddie chooses to be toxic to all symbiotes. I predict Carnage will find a way out of this.

Interesting that Jean & Phoenix would choose Carol, but it works. Cosmic Powers think alike? She faces a conundrum of sustained tension, as we readers are plunked right in. Curious if she will move on to an adventure, or it will come to her. Not surprised Maddie has feeling about this.

Of course, ultimately, Kang is bored. A twisted journey through time as we see the transformation into Myrddin. I'm curious about the other tribulation events, and what universe he made it to. Is Kang causing Incursion‽ Really enjoyed the twisted writing/story in this one.

Every word out of Glob is heartbreaking. Hank notices there's something darker about their return they don't know. Love Scott trying to connect with Jean immediately. Doug struggles to control Logan (who, I believe, can heal mind-control). Surprise: Illyana's in charge!

More Infinity Comics. Lifeguard gets a great spotlight, but it's Beak and the Agents of Thanks who steal the show. My heart is so full, and also breaking. These are the stories I'm missing from Krakoa; The weirdos and misfits who were sucked into the WHR.

Scott & Hank are brought to the future (Where RLDS didn't get Max). Doug's gone full mad-dictator. Bei & Kwannon face off, & something is deeply wrong with Glob. Logan is once again reduced to death. This future does seem more utopian to me than previous AUs...

Poor Ava, Hector's ghost just won't leave her alone. Soon single minded grief gives way to D'Spayre! She remembers who she is, & who her brother is, & makes a new covenant with the Tiger God (in exchange for a cool power up). Finally: some reconciliation with Angela follows!

Are MJ's publicity issues a meta-commentary on the character? Surely not. R'Gars is giving Tom Cruise MI vibes. Hive Minds are always creepy. Madame Masque returns with quips. Religious Zealots are falling over themselves to give up. But it's a new Queen!

I appreciate both sides of the mask debate here. Kanon jumps to conclusions. Is Surge literally sucking on batteries‽ Hilarious! Viper makes a move & it is ruthless. Shadow King is still coming for Armor. Curious to see how the showdown with the government goes.

Creed gets a chance to be a full human being in every other timeline: it's tragic & sweet. Omega Red gets in the fight! The Muramasa blade makes an appearance, as do Bobby & Sarah. Poor Artie & Leech. Setting up quite the confrontation.

This book had me at "Gun Nuns". The Decayed have a lot of alliteration going on. Kushala comes in heavy with the exposition: liking the lore. Hellverine is better with this group than the gov one. Barbara's flame hair is a cool design. This was all to get Roxanne‽

Don't love a gun-toting Pete, but it's Noir. The writing fits the style well without going over the top. A Gwen appears! The case of Captain Stacy has a lot of loose threads. I'm looking forward to a mystery plot, but then we get a final cliffhanging clue. Count me in on this.

Interesting framing with the covert opener. I like the train scene, fighting Doombots is fun and the panels are laid out great. Ross' military strategy is on display, I'm looking forward to him hunting down Ryker & stopping the red hulklings.
