Venomverse #3

The team behind Venomverse #3 creates a strong midway point for the "Venomverse" event. The panels are filled with action, the plot moves along, and there are few surprises along the way to keep things from getting static. Cullen Bunn, Iban Coello, and Matt Yackey are a strong team with a clear vision, which has made this comic one to pick up every week. Read Full Review

For what it is it ain't a bad action frenzy, but it'll be hard to care about any of it. Read Full Review

Venomverse is still a frustrating read in some respects, but the fun is beginning to outweigh the more negative aspects as the series rounds the halfway mark.

Eddie Brock summons dangerous help in the fight against the Poisons, against the better judgement of practically everyone - but his crazy plan works. Later on, Cullen Bunn commits a nasty storytelling sin by chaining two renditions of the same revelation back-to-back for different characters. It's a very obvious twist that was all but spelled out for us readers in #2, taking even more shine off it. Iban Coello's art is still top-notch stuff, but here the clumsiness of the script wipes out the notability of the visuals and drags the overall quality, again, down to the middle of the road. Also, "Deadpool reeks of sin, but not of evil" is a notable example of shallow bull˜ ˜ ˜ ˜  that sounds deep but isn't.
