Preamble Wolverine: Three Months to Die Book 2 was never intended to be a Comic File. No, reading about the death of an Agent Butcher top ten superhero was meant to be “fun.” And throw in the fact that I did not enjoy the first issue of The Death of Wolverine, this was a collection […]
Uncanny X-Men: Vs. S.H.I.E.L.D.
Preamble Vs. S.H.I.E.L.D. you say, vs, S.H.I.E.L.D. you say! Why yes sign me up for Brian Michael Bendis’ Uncanny X-Men: Vs. S.H.I.E.L.D.! Situation Report Cyclops has had enough! His outlaw team of X-Men keep getting attacked by sentinels, and believing S.H.I.E.L.D. is the source he goes straight to Maria Hill for answers. The confrontation […]
A+X + Outstanding (Comic Files)
Preamble I read a lot of comics. And one of my goals is to read all of the Marvel NOW! titles so I have sampled the anthology series A+X combining a Avenger with a mutant but never found it comic file worthy. But then they had to go and add Agent Adsit! Situation Report […]
Original Sin #3 (Comic Files)
Preamble So a guy with an eye for a head has the eye! But what special properties does the eye have? And did the Orb kill the Watcher? And will we find out in Original Sin #3? Situation Report The Orb holds the eye and he uses it as a weapon against the heroes searching […]
Original Sin #2 (Comic Files)
Preamble Nick Fury continues his chase for the Watcher’s murderer, which started in Original Sin #1. And the clues are going to take him to some strange places. And as the cover screams we all wonder, who holds the eye? Situation Report Ant-Man, Black Panther and Emma Frost explore a monster graveyard in the […]
Infinity (Comic Files)
Preamble Earlier I gave Jonathan Hickman’s a three-issue ride, before I stopped reading. My main complaint was there was enough going on between issues in other connected titles that I was not reading that the story often did not make full sense. But I did provide it a second chance recently in the collected, Infinity. […]
X-Men: Battle of the Atom (Comic Files)
Preamble I made a choice last fall. I could either pick-up X-Men: Battle of the Atom or DC’s Forever Evil mini-series as a monthly follow. I chose DC, I know I know but a guy has to read around and explore new frontiers! After issue 2 of Forever Evil I was out! And Agent Ben […]
Wolverine and the X-Men #39 (Comic Files)
Preamble I’ve been promised punching and slashing. So Wolverine and the X-Men #39 better deliver. I need to see some S.H.I.E.L.D. resources get damaged! Logan can you deliver property damage? Situation Report Wolverine travels into the Rockies to a secret and not well defended S.H.I.E.L.D. base. So of course it is a trap! But […]
Wolverine and the X-Men #38 (Comic Files)
Preamble By all accounts, I made a bad choice. Instead of following my comic book bliss I ignored X-Men: Battle of the Atom and instead started to pick up Infinity and Forever Evil. For these two series I never made it past issue #3 of either (though I do plan to read as collections). Then […]
Age of Ultron (Comic Files)
Preamble In 2015 we get The Avengers: Age of Ultron. This announcement came out right after the conclusion of the Age of Ultron mini-series written by Brian Michael Bendis. Now clearly this future movie cannot translate the story frame for frame as it is incorporated into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It is possible that the […]
