"Infinity Wars: Soldier Supreme" is a mixed bag. Some parts of the combination work better than others, and not every scene is a masterpiece, but there's still plenty of good to be gleaned from it. I'm still a fan of each individual behind this issue, and for what it is, it's a worthwhile read with an engaging idea behind it.

Invader Zim #10
June 10, 2016

Its fine as far as individual Invader Zim stories go, with strong writing and artwork, but little in the way of a real laugh out loud experience, and overall a little forgettable. However, this does not detract from the comics solid run, and was still an overall positive read; Id recommend it for fans of Invader Zim, but not for the casual reader who just grabs an issue now and then or is looking to get started.

Light on exposition, but high on action. This comic hits you with the action quickly, with all that you'd expect from a comic with Wolverine and Omega Red, while starting a trip into Wolverine's history.
