Week of Nov. 25

Are you sensing a pattern? I pretty much read Ultimate Marvel exclusively. Sometimes I dabble in indie comics. Actually, it's not so much that I don't keep up with indie comics as it is that I wait for the TPBs (or Trade Paper Backs for those of you in the regular world).

Ultimate Comics Avengers #4














This weeks issue was a continuation of last weeks. The upside was a lot of action and the chance for Carlos Pacheco to show off his talents as an artist. The downside was very little story and slightly hokey dialogue. Captain America gets his ass kicked, so for those that aren't fans of the cliche of having a superhero named after a country might be in for a treat.

Overall I am excited to see where this is headed, but worried that it might not make good on its promise of a quality story. Either way, it's nice to see someone other than Jeph Loeb's ass writing these characters.


Overall Grade: C+


Next week: Ultimate Comics Spider-Man

Happy Holidays.
