Captain Marvel #16 – more Infinity nonsense, with some ugly art.

Daredevil #31 – Mark Waid mixes a recent US criminal case with the Sons of the Serpent and the Jester to administer some social justice.

Infinity #3 – still tedious.

Morbius #9 – boring.

New Avengers #10 – yawn inducing.

Savage Wolverine #8 – another dull book.

Secret Avengers #9 – total recall.

Superior Spiderman #18 – plodding.

Superior Carnage #3 – villains united.

Thor God of Thunder #13 – disappointing. A clichéd Conan rip-off obviously written to tie into the upcoming Dark World movie.

Thunderbolts #15 – some seriously ugly art in this book.

Uncanny X-Men #12 – uncanny exposition.

Venom #41 – sympathy for the Devil.

A+X #12 – Wonder Man and Beast team-up in a great story about nostalgia and re-united friendship. Jubilee, Captain America and Nazi vampires in the other story.

Avengers #20 – gets more pompous with each issue.

FF #12 – stupid.

Guardians of the Galaxy #6 – still good but a bit too much pointless fighting in this issue.

Infinity Heist #1 – pretty good.

Nova #8 – this isn’t the Nova I’m looking for.

The Trial of the Punisher #1 – clichéd nonsense.

Scarlet Spider #22 – I preferred Kraven the Hunter when he was dead.

Superior Spiderman Team-Up #3 – interesting story, pretty art.

Uncanny Avengers #12 – amazingly dull.

Wolverine and the X-Men #36 – more time travel stuff and a half decent read.

Young Avengers #10 – weird.

All New X-Men #17 – still interesting, still good.

All New X-Men Special #1 – Spidey, Hulk, Doc Ock and more mysterious time travel stuff. Pretty good.

Captain America Living Legend #1 – an interesting premise with some pretty art.

Hunger #3 – emptiness.

Infinity the Hunt #2 – dull.

Iron Man #16 – a plot line dragged out too long.

Mighty Avengers #2 – an Avengers book that isn’t too bad.

Savage Wolverine #9 – Wolverine in space. Krappy.

Superior Foes of Spiderman # 4 – tries too hard to be clever and cool and achieves neither.

Thunderbolts #16 – really, really terrible.

Daredevil #32 – magic, mystery and monsters make for a beautifuly crafted book.

FF #13 – still hard to believe that it is Matt Fraction who writes this nonsense.

Indestructible Hulk #14 – also hard to believe that Mark Waid can write a great book like DD at the same time as this stupidity. The artwork is also as ugly as sin.

Infinity Heist #2 – pretty good.

Infinity Hunt #3 – yawn.

Iron Man #17 – Tony Stark isn’t really Tony Stark and nearly 50 years of Marvel history is rewritten.

Nova #9 – tedious.

Savage Wolverine #10 – put some lazy writing together with some scruffy art and this is what you end up with.

Secret Avengers #10 – more Infinity nonsense.

Superior Carnage #4 – surprisingly good.

Superior Spiderman Team-Up #5 – interesting.

Thunderbolts #17 – art so ugly I wanted to poke my eyes out. The writing is terrible as well.

Uncanny Avengers #13 – terrible.

Venom #42 – hot stuff.

Wolverine and the X-Men #37 – time travel tripe.

Young Avengers #11 – pretty art, poor story.

Your T-bolts praise made me laugh so hard I started crying :roflmao:

Haha, I love your quick summaries Comicopolis, I've learned to trust your judgement as you're pretty spot on every time (and good for a laugh as well)

 

I'm also wondering what you think about Wolverine 11. I read a rumor that it's building up to where Wolverine will either kill the Watcher and/or die himself. I don't understand how a comic alluding to the death of a character that Marvel will never let die sells out, but maybe it's just me...

Avengers #22 – infinite tedium.

Avengers A.I #5 – plodding story made interesting by Hank Pym’s health admission.

Captain America Living Legend #2 – intriguing.

Guardians of the Galaxy #8 – a drop in quality, with art that is wrong for this book.

Infinity #5 – finally, an issue that is mildly interesting.

The Trial of the Punisher #2 – it was a punishment just having to read this toss. With the worst drawing of Matt Murdock that I’ve ever seen.

Scarlet Spiderman #23 – more Kraven nonsense.

Superior Spiderman #20 – still good.

Superior Spiderman Team-Up Special – excellent.

X-Men Battle of the Atom #2 – a promising start that eventually descended into the usual mutant nonsense.

Amazing X-Men #1 – the return of Nightcrawler and the X-Men in Heaven. Intriguing.

Captain America #13 – the Cold War reheated and pretty intresting it is as well.

Captain Marvel #17 – plain to see why this book has been cancelled: God awful story with even worse art.

Iron Man #18 – a new female Mandarin. The fanboys will be upset. A mildly interesting story.

Mighty Avengers #3 – for once, a decent Avengers book.
