Moved the plot forward, good action, art holds it back from an 8

Although the "Enemy of the State II" title was a bit misleading its conclusion was satisfying.

Plenty of fun dialogue and action.

Surprisingly good issue. I am not a GOTG fan but I enjoyed them here. Art and storylines were solid.

Intriguing start

Gave a Batman comic a shot and enjoyed it.

Start Immonen has been getting better and over the past few years. I would have given it a ten but Osborne's running was weak.

Got a little dull in the middle but a great read.

Fun time traveling plot, fun banter, and I am sold on the painted art look.

Now that's more like it, go straight into super hero-ing. Peter is acting like Peter. Sam is acting like a leader.

Just ok story and art.

Why was Captain Falcon so slow on the uptake? Why can't Thor Foster's hammer handle the shield? Why is Peter Parker so gullible? Why was Was being a jet? Why was the art so Terrible?

Beautiful to look at, the sadness on Odinson's face was the most striking.

This is a fill in issue done right, great dialogue and art.

Good but not amazing.

Dull art and storylines.

Great art and fun start.

Art is just great.

Good pacing and great art.

Straight to the point, very cartoon flashy.

Looks pretty, enjoyed seeing Ghost Rider but not much happening. The font in the word bubbles spoiled the twist ending.

Best single issue I've read in months. Great art, enthralling story.

Very interesting issue from page one to the end. Well written one shot with great art.

Coates, I am begging you, pick up the pace. So little actually happened.

Very interesting and tense, but could we get a little action? T'Challa did nothing.

The art and the ugly of war; could have been a nine but as usual very little action for a comic book.

Good, but didn't live up to the slow build up.

When will T'Challa snap out of this and be decisive? The comic should be titled "The Second Guesser". If he wants to be a super hero he should act like it, if a king than act like a king.

Introduced some new ideas but still could have used some more action.

Getting better but still more talking heads than a comic book.

Once again pacing and the lack of plot development keeps this issue from being great. Background and monologues are great for a page or two but . . .

Much better, pacing improved, solid reveal at the end, good action and art. Well done.

FINALLY! A comic book issue that feels like a comic book! Here's hoping the conclusion won't fall flat.

Keeping up the action, reveals and good pacing of the previous issue my hopes are renewed for this series.

Exciting issue, sometimes the action was unclear.

I would have given it a 9 but there are too many unanswered questions and no signs of them getting back to them.

Intense but little action.

Great action and drama

Love the art, moves plot forward.

It brings the last ten years of comics in perspective and leaves with a cliffhanger that excites you for what's to come.

Talk about a guilty pleasure, it was absolutely ridiculous and I enjoyed every page of it. Face paced and great cliffhanger.

That's two issues without Black Panther doing or saying anything interesting ðŸ˜'

Getting better but still feel we should have gotten more story for the issue.

This is more like what I expected from this series. A little character development, a little action, and some absurd Deadpool just for fun.

I enjoyed every panel, enjoyed Deadpool's very self aware humor to the comic. It would have been a perfect 10 but the writer forgot to mention that Black Panther hired Deadpool as a Merc for hire in Doom War.

Not one dull panel

Interesting set up.

Fun almost Saturday morning cartoon feel.

So we'll written

Great issue, I would love to see more of Sean Izaakse and the art team.

Fun action, fun dialogue, just didn't like Sam's mask.

Why is this series getting better as it's about to be cancelled? It is a rare example of a series that works well/better as a tie into an "event". I like Sam's personal struggle much more than previous storylines.

A well written issue but mostly there to build momentum to next Secret Empire installment. Some funny moments and inspiring moments save it.

Some fun character interactions but not much else in this one-&-done.

Funny, serious, timely, good pacing, true to continuity (Miles is in another universe right now). You either love or hate Ramos art but I happen to love it.

A fun, uplifting, well paced and good looking comic book.

Just when I thought I had the jist of the issue Waid does a clever twist. Best issue thus far.

Good get to know issue. . . not much for Miles though.

A good enough filler until the next Marvel event comes storming in.

A character building issue of heroism when facing hopelessness

Fun but nothing special.

Intense build up and fight. Fun seeing all the different heroes in action.

I was going to say it has a fun loving tone . . . until the end :)

Great art, great pace, great cliffhanger

Loved: Character design/ world building/ art/ storyline/ pacing/ ending. I wish this was a twelve part story.

Geeking out fun from cover to cover.

Such a feast for the eyes! It was the last part to the story so the action came quickly and kept going. Finally a comic worth the price, more like these please.

It looked amazing, intense from panel to panel (even when I already knew the outcome). Left me excited for what's next.

Can not wait until the next issue.

Now that's an issue 4! Moved the story along, the banter was good, but most importantly beautiful action. Would have been a 10 but no one explained how Danny instantly fixed his spine.

Great art, great banter, great suspense for a mystery, shocking ending; Defenders is climbing the ranks as one of Marvel's best monthly comics. SPOILER: It makes you wonder why no one has ever tried to just sneak up and shoot Black Cat before, she has no Spider sense or armor.

Great action sequence but why so little fighting from the guest star?

"Oh, it just keeps getting better, doesn't it?"

How could this be anything less than a ten! What a satisfying conclusion to the story arc.

An interesting expansion to the new norm for the X-Men. Very curious about Apocalypse angle but not convinced why Jubilee is there. Art was just beautiful.

Love the lore of this world.

Beautiful art, but was the turns at the end that pushed it to a nine.

Incredible art as usual and it's good to see some character development out of Spencer. However, not knowing the rules/lore of this world it can feel like just making things up as it goes. I don't know what people can usually do so I don't know what to be impressed by.

Nice enough fill in story but didn't care for the art.

I'm not sold on the art just yet. The end reveal was already spoiled for me but it still didn't make a ton of sense. Sam is doing his daytime Batman impression complete with young Ward and zip line wrapped around thugs. I'll give it another issue.

The writing is getting better but I'm just not a fan of the art.

Man, I could see that coming from a mile away.

Although they tried their best to explain things I had to spend ten minutes reading wiki entries to appreciate this issue. Definitely for the long time fans and not new Rebirth guys like me.

A fun one shot

A fun enough one shot

Fun and too the point, just what a one shot should be.

Lots of fun elements (like young Thor from Jason Aaron's earlier work on the series) make for a very fun diversion.

A nice and hopeful story but . . . Mystic Tony rather than Iron Tony Art was all over the place Story wasn't super engaging

Corny but fun seeing Mar-vell again.

It had some holes in its logic that were distracting but charming all the same.

Great art, but doing a time travel story with one character made in the 60's and another from the 10's was just a logistical nightmare.

This what I hoped/expected when I read the pitch for Generations. Good character development, meaningful story. It provided closure while creating anticipation for where Sam and Steve go next as people. My only complaint is a common one . . . why make the comic more expensive. Just impressed by how well done and fleshed out it was for a one shot.

It was excellent through out, I can not wait for the next issue.

Another suicide mission comic but Pepe's art makes it worth it.

Everything I was hoping issue six would be I got in issue five. I am definitely on the hype train.

Same ol' same ol, at least the art is good.

Great pacing, great dialogue, great ending.

I find the character Victor Von Doom to be fasinating and enjoy seeing the layers of his personality come out under duress.

A little too much standing around and talking, IronHeart's appreance was just ok but I wanted more. Another fun cliffhanger but not a lot of answers.

I do enjoy the intriguing mother character but I dislike paying for little morsels of plot development, should have waited for the TPB.

Fun, approachable, great art team, nice pacing.

Love the art and crisp dialog

Ninjas, much like bacon, makes everything better. Never take Stefano off this title. Nice use of the whole cast.

The art team of Stefano and Marte turn a 7.5 issue to 9.5. I hope they stay with the Iron Man cast for many months to come.

The pacing of Riri's character development is a little faster than Bendis' 2000 Ultimate Peter Parker which is nice. Riri has a hard time confronting things and this issue gives her plenty.

Every panel was a victory. Bendis' excels at the getting to know stage of a character.

Easily the best issue yet, crisp dialogue, Riri finally wins a fight, lovely and rich art.

From start to finish, a beautiful and exciting issue.

Fun and well written issue, but another misleading Marvel cover. Stefano is great as usual.

Art is great as usual, but I don't like these halt the plot fill in issues.

Interesting intro, but it was just a intro. Stefano should do art for all of the Marvel universe.

Same review again: great art, great banter but the slow plot pacing keeps it from an eight.

I just love Riri/ Hologram Tony banter.

Well written and good art. Some panels were a bit too wordy and, of course, I could have used some more action. Overall a great establishing issue with good pace.

Great artwork throughout, from the action sequences to the faces of the characters. What I enjoyed most is the unfolding, intriguing plot that's developing. It was a well paced and exciting issue that left me wanting the next issue sooner than later.

They have found a winning formula of good art/plot/dialogue/pace and action, and it's working for them.

This is the first issue I didn't love. Too much of an information dump by the villain all at once. Would have been better to spread his backstory out over issues. Still great art however.

What you want from a monthly comic. Resolution of story line while pushing the plot and the series forward. Good balance of action and dialogue, and still love the art.

An exciting and beautiful issue. Luciano Vecchio is quickly becoming a favorite of mine.

Another issue of beautiful artwork and good pacing. Riri's lack of social skills is consistent and it is interesting to see how various Marvel characters react to it. A pretty good but not great cliffhanger.

Only get this comic if you like: 1. Panel after panel of gorgeous and fast paced action 2. Charming and thoughtful banter 3. A satisfying amount of plot development

A fun geek-out issue with exciting action layouts and cool villain designs. Also some new insight on Riri's past and present "condition". Would have been a 10 but this certain family connection has been done a hundred times before.

Beautiful art as usual, but more exposition than I wanted. The writer was cramming in a lot of character development into the final issue 😑.

Loved every panel

The dull in the middle of the story line issue. Ms. Marvel texting is a waste of a cool character.

Why is Mosaic acting like he's thirteen? Why is White Queen such a villain leader (again) amongst heroes?

Lots of fun action/matchups. Nice twists and guest star.

Exciting but Emma's villain turn seem too sudden and drastic. Also a bunch of people died and things just kept going.

Best issue thus far, enjoyed the art. Favorite line: "You're a Omega level telepath with a mindscape roomy enough to contain a blazing good bird"

Great issue about power and how we deal with it. Intrigued on where the story is going.

All over the place nostalgic fun, with an interesting ending.

Very well done and crisp pace.

It accomplished its goal of creating a comic that makes you interested in a dozen storylines. Did I just see a Wakandan space force? I never figured him for a butterfly out of a coocoon type! Are they really going to give us "them" back?!? Very exciting read. Oh, I want more BC Avengers.

Finally the pace of the issue is picking up with good action. Actual tense moments and real cost.

Excellence. Conversations were meaningful, the stakes were high, the pacing was perfect. Great art from facial expressions to action sequences.

Great issue, great art but man do I have some big questions! The twist was worth it.

A fun but fairly light issue. Nice art, but cliffhanger not so great when it's on the cover.

A solid and exciting issue.

Not very friendly to readers new to the New gods, I just have believe more will be explained in following issues.

Nice to see Elsa Bloodstone again

A little better, the art saves it

Better pacing, more hero involvement and a villain reveal.

Go Go Power Marvel😉! This issue reminded me that comics use to be for young people, not guys in their mid thirties like me. I just accepted it was for fun and I enjoyed it.

It looks great and is charming, but should be collected and placed in the children section of the bookstore (online or brick and mortar). It seems like such an opportunity missed.

Very sweet but a little thin.

Advances the plot a bit but other than that just as #2

I do enjoy Khary's art

Did a great job moving the character/plot forward

Great to see the artist back but not an exciting finale.

That's how you make a comic.

How comics should be made

Good issue but it did leave me with a bunch of question marks.

You are either thrilled or upset by this "more questions than answers" issue. I have some good guesses and can't wait to see if I'm right.

All I asked was that they keep up the pace of the action and they did so.

A very fun and charming issue.

One of Coates better issues this far, pacing and dialogue was engaging.

Not as exciting but still very interesting.

Love Jonboy, good pacing.

Good but not a fan of the art

Kept my attention, good build and good reveals.

Action, drama, answers, a big question at the end, Avenger lore, good gritty art.

Great issue, the villans were C-list though.

Intense and action packed, complete with twist and cool cameos.

Oh look, heroes being heroes yeah!

Great art and lots of fun action, what more can you ask for? Oh, and a funny Black Ant and Taskmaster scene.

A really good ending but could have used a little more explanation, wrapped up almost too neatly.

Thought it would be a 5 but turned out to be an 8. Well written and leaves the reader curious about the future.

Surprisingly good read and art throughout.

Beautiful to look at, fast pace start without a bunch of reintroducing familiar characters.

Great dialogue, great art, fast pace, and a plot that is not hindered by the crossover event.

This is how I like my comics. I hope it goes on far beyond the crossover event.

Good, another misleading cover.

Fun but predicable at every turn.

Love the dialogue and the art.

Humor, character development, great art and action.

Can't go wrong with ninjas and limited power-ups.

In one issue we get a whole lot of great. CAN Not Wait for the next issue.

Just Dope.

Perhaps I'm just a sucker for a good alternate universe Wolverine story but I enjoyed this issue. It would have been a ten except for the terrible guest artist in the middle.

High paced, high stakes dopeness from beginning to end.

Fun issue well paced, it would be a ten if we could see the next step in the Matt Murrdock character.

Could have explained the Cindy Moon connection better.

Nice to get some background on Murrdock, although I was hoping for more twist. It reminded me of Batman Arkham Origin

Great art and emotionally taunt issue. A little more action and it would have been a ten.

Fun twist

Lots of butt kicking, thank you. Plus it leaves some questions to ponder.

A well paced and intense read. Only problem is the art makes the mom look older to younger from panel to panel.

I love this art team! I'm invested in the Morales family.

I love the youthfulness of the issue but would it be asking too much to get a little more super hero action, it is a comic book after all.

Great art but the issue felt all over place, like just a bunch of ideas thrown together. The fact that the cover to this issue had very little to do with the comic is annoying. Ganke and Miles' friendship and dialogue save it from a 5.

Why can't every issue be like this? Fast paced, witty banter, humor, intrigue, lots of action and a cliffhanger. That's the recipe.

New powers don't make up for bland writing.

Another well paced and well balanced issue. Supporting characters got developed, plenty of action, and most importantly the plot actually moved along (Bendis can go several issues sometimes with plot in neutral).

Ok set up

I like Bendis but this habit of stretching an idea (a flashback) out one or two whole issues is unfair to the paying customer.

Not to be taken to seriously, just a fun all over the place issue to play around with different ideas.

Better than expected, it's the art that makes you forget the cliched plot.

Good ol' comic book fun

A little more effort on the finale guys, please

I picked up this issue because it was a part one and it was getting good reviews. I had to go online and do some extra research to figure out what was going on.

Nice enough, but it does feel like promotional materials for the movie

Very dull and bland for a number one issue, hopefully it will pick up next issue.

Awesome "Godly" issue, very bold direction. Well paced as usual.

I would like to give this issue a 10.25

My only problem was how easily the Phoenix was dealt with.

I thought it was going to be a certain one eyed character˜º

Nearly perfect, very exciting, but felt brief.

Another issue that deserves more than a ten.

Just great action

Intense and beautiful to behold

Good, a little more action would have been nice.

Good comic book fun that leaves you anticipating the next issue.

Solid conclusion, hope the villain returns.

Way to flesh out character dynamics without sacrificing a transition issue.

Berserker Odinson . . . nuff said

Beautiful to look at, the suspense is killing me.

Art was a disappointment, hooded character reveal was disappointing, whisper disappointing.

Now that felt a little bit more like a comic book, hopefully with a significant impact on the universe.

Al Ewing made his very big ideas a very easy and enjoyable read.

Curse these useless crossover issues!

I am equal parts sad and delighted by this issue. An exciting read from the first page to the last. I am depressed that a story with so much more to tell is ending, I give it an 11!

Exciting well paced issue. The big reveal at the end was ruined for me sadly enough by Marvel.

Pretty good art and story showcasing the new status quo and power set. Fun cliffhanger.

Wow, that was an intense page-turner. The art was pretty good as well. Fun learning the rules of her new powers.

Great art and another fun cliffhanger but just short of a nine.

Like the art, story is same old.

Just a fun good looking issue.
