This is not GI Joe. This is a story they wanted to tell and are using the GI Joe brand to sell it. But let me tell you, this is NOT a GI Joe story.
Terribly simplistic art. Groan worthy dialogue. PC as hell. Not Gi Joe. I want my $4.00 back.
The end.

But when a dangerous new threat appears and puts his new life in jeopardy, he's got no...
Of all the X titles I think this series is understanding what made the titles work. The character interactions are enjoyable and the story is building nicely. I had my doubts but this Marvel may have finally got the formula right.
X-Men: Red #2
THE HATE MACHINE Part 2
JEAN GREY and her team must infiltrate a top-secret compound in order to save a mutant they've never met.
They'll have to avoid guards armed with guns, protestors armed with hate and sentinels armed with...well, slightly larger and more dangerous guns than the guards.
All in a day's work for the newest X-Me...
X-Men:Red is really proving to be the best X-Men team book going. It is everything an X book is about. The stakes remain high in issue 2. We introduce Gentle and Trinary in this issue and Trinary's introduction will likely get some fan boys complaining but she looks like a great new character. We end the book with a promise of an action packed 3rd issue and I love that Wakanda is the hide out spot more

Wow this is garbage. Jean isn't nearly as hot as she should be. X-23 isn't as dark as she should be. Nightcrawler has no personality. Come to think of it, none of these characters seem to have any personality with the possible exception of the newly introduced Trinary. Honey Badger is an incredibly worthless character. Also, the art sucks.
There seems to be a new mandate for the X-Men b

"Jean isn't nearly as hot as she should be" This sentence alone tells me to stop reading and disregard your review... But like RustonLF suggests, read Gold if this isn't your thing.
your cover pic is a liefeld drawing, i immediately have zero intrest in what you have to say
Death of X is a storyline that could have been epic. The problem is, it's released at a time where we already know the origins, the results and precisely what is and isn't at stake. Therefore, the epic proportions, the shock and the intrigue are all instantly minimized the moment we hear them. How exciting the terrigen cloud reveal would have been (that it threatens the lives of some of the mutant more

What happened eight months ago that set the Inhumans and X-Men on a collision course? Find out here!
The Inhumans travel to Japan where one of the Terrigen Clouds creates a shocking new Inhuman.

This second arc has been surprisingly good! More humor and lots of action in this issue, cant ask for much more out of a 007 book!
James Bond #8
James Bond is trapped in Los Angeles with a MI6 agent under fire and a foreign intelligence service trying to put them both in bags... and possibly more than one foreign intelligence service. And things may not be any safer in Britain, with bodies dropping and ghosts moving in the political mist...
The story is not really developing much, but there is lots of action and I mostly enjoy the art - it is a small gripe but I dont like the way Franks hair is drawn.
Punisher #4
MADNESS AHEAD, TROUBLE BEHIND!
• The PUNISHER tracks the psychopathic FACE and his madness-inducing drug EMC to a derelict insane asylum!
• But Punisher's got his own tail: DEA agents, and Face...DRIVING A TANK.
• The little girl in the Punisher's passenger seat might be safer on the side ...
The civil war II tie-in is forced, but does not slow the issue badly. The cameos of Ravage and Gallows (Punisher) made my day.
Spider-Man 2099 #13
CIVIL WAR II TIE-INS!
• 2099 is in peril and Roberta Mendez. A.K.A. Captain America, has returned to the future to find her family.
• Little does she know that the heroes of the future are being hunted.
• Could this be the end of 2099 as Miguel knows it?
Rated T
This book is awesome! Dark and gritty the way DD should be, the best DD has been is a long time.
Daredevil #10
"THE DARK ART" STARTS NOW!

This title is constantly good (rarely amazing, never bad). This review sums up the last few years of Spidey.
Amazing Spider-Man #16
BEFORE "DEAD NO MORE"!
• There's an accident at Parker Industries!
• What will Peter Parker do to save his employees, both as CEO AND Spider-Man?!

Great art but little to no story to go with it.
