Champions #23

Jim Zub dives further into the character of Viv Vision and Sam Alexander when they are forced to face their fears at the hands of the Man-thing. The issue is a lot of fun and drama mixed with a young adult feel. The team behind Champions has a steady rhythm, and I would definitely recommend reading them. Read Full Review

Jim Zub's run of Champions is doing fantastic things. He understands these young heroes and writes them all extremely well. I'm glad one of the most underrated teams in Marvel is in good hands. Read Full Review

There is no rest for the Champions, that much is assured to us through the events of this issue. I was taken back by the balance of action, character development, and one heck of a twist that once again changes everything we knew about the direction this story was taking. Read Full Review

Champions #23 is an emotionally weighty and action-packed installment for this team of young heroes. They struggle to contain the Man-Thing while half the team is falling apart internally. Its a heavy-hitting issue, and I definitely recommend it. Check it out. Read Full Review

Thankfully, however, we at least get little moments with each Champion at some point in the book and, although the ending is a bit messy, it's still another exciting edition to an already stellar series. Read Full Review

Having the Champions " a team that is in tremendous flux, given the absence of Miles Morales, the depowering of Nova, and the additions of Amka and Ironheart " in a battle royale with Man-Thing might not be the most exciting premise on paper, but you have to give Jim Zub credit for writing the heck out of it.

Great art, great pace, great cliffhanger

Zub understands these characters so well and the series itself is very interactive. Definitely one of the better Marvel comics the publisher is producing. My only complaint is Nadia Pym

The Champions fight Man-Thing twice, with the undercard being tormented soul-searching for Viv. It's an excellent read, but the story drifts away from Viv and onto new business without pinning down a real conclusion. The intent might be to create ambiguity, but it comes across as unfocused. Still, this is hardly boring or ugly to look at. The art is beautiful and the script has a terrific pace.

Champions was my last hope for a good reading this week. And if some part are really interesting or fun, I find it hard to understand. So he wasn't the kind of reading I waited. But if sometime have to read something unexpected is good, this time that let me with some aftertaste. To be honest, I don't know if in a week or two I will remember any of it, and it's a recurrent issue with this ongoing. I want to trust Zub. So I will let him a fair chance with the arc in Westworld. But after that if that didn't improve I will have to let go. Cover - Really nice & Related (Cheer). 2/2 Writing - Some part are clear enough for me so I cannot give it the maximum. 2/3 Arts - Libranda replace Isaakse. Some part are really good, other fill not eno ugh (All the part where Viv encountering the other Viv). There is a balance between panel with real background & those with just color. But I seen Libranda do more than this. So this is not enough for me. 2/3 Feeling - Mixed. 1/2 more
