Spacey Medicine's Profile

God, this is just so good. I love you, John. Absolutely living for that totally unprovoked (and yet very deserved) TS Eliot slam.

Sorry, haters, but this is a perfect comic.

I'm sorry but that terrorism was just so shoddily performed. Really embarrassing work on Mystique's part, I'm deeply ashamed of her.

Yeah this is an okay comic.

Wow okay have we maybe heard of, like, pacing? Developing some chill? What a mishmash.

*gasp*

I mean I was invested from a Seven Soldiers angle but #NotMySevenSoldiers so eh, this was fine.

This is all fine but not super exciting for me.

Damn these teens are really self-aware.

This was okay!

Fine issue.

lol Kilometres Morales.

Ugh whatever rule this post-apocalyptic hellscape, see if I care.

A little talky for me, I'm not a huge fan of the art style either.

This had some energy to it at least.

Ehh whatever.

Uhhh no thanks. This wasn't good.

I have minor nitpickery with the smile thing but I'm gonna let it slide.

Well, I'm invested!

Cool cool cool.

Well, I'm not sad to see it go. The art was nice but this draaaaaagged.

Skurge is keeping me going.

Some of these were good and some of them weren't but my god the gimmick grows more annoying with every colour theme anthology I read.

I think this is getting a little too fever dream for me.

I don't care all that much at this point. Art's bad, but you don't need me to tell you that.

Interesting!

I liked this but wish I'd gotten more of a sense of Yara as a person.

Fine issue.

This had some cool stuff going on in it.

*gasp*

The thing is this isn't a bad comic, but I never look forward to reading it and I always put it near the beginning of my reading order, which I feel is telling me something.

Honestly, not bad. The dialogue got a little grating but I wasn't annoyed to be reading this.

Inoffensive but also inconsequential. Like sure the stories are actually pretty good for an anthology, but what's the point of the gimmick?

Feels like it would be so easy to be like "yeah dude i'm trying to reform my evil dad's evil gang," like so super easy to just say that?? But what do I know, that's not a very dramatic exit line.

How does this comic get me invested in dumb high school bullshit?? I love you Runaways.

What a fun read, I'm so grateful that Tom Taylor is capable of writing amusing dialogue that doesn't make me want to stab my eyes out, unlike some writers I could name.

Why do they all talk like this. I hate it. I hate this.

I actually...kind of liked this one?

This was mostly good! I liked the first more than the second.

I heard this guy has 48 TVs can you believe that?

I suppose this is enjoyable for Fantastic Four enjoyers.

Love it!

Fine! I don't really care about this comic, sorry teens.

Yeah this is cool I guess!

Fine, fine.

Still good!

Dramatic!

Took me a minute to align my brain to it but we got there in the end.

The first and last story were good. The middle two do not bear speaking about, and I shan't consider them further.

Will Zdarsky make me love the Justice League again?? That will be the truest recovery from betrayal here.

Oh my god!

Honestly, for me Boomerang covers a lot of sins.

I actually really enjoy this comic, it's very engaging. The "Also featuring Punchline" on the cover feels more like a threat than anything. Let us speak of it no further.

This was okay! Maybe a little too much stuff?

Honestly completely here for Doom King of Space.

I liked this one but they should've kissed.

Felt a little sparse but I'm still with it.

I mostly enjoyed this.

Okay! Didn't read the backup.

The scene with JJJ was the best part.

Wow tell me you got cancelled unexpectedly and had to cram like three issues into one issue without telling me that you got cancelled unexpectedly and had to cram like three issues into one issue.

Toooo much business.

This was pretty okay.

Wow I not only don't care about Johnny Storm's love life, I really actively hate it. I am, however, here for Doom's elaborate rituals. Wild.

This was better than I usually expect an anthology to be, but it still had several weak stories that just dragged the whole thing down.

I struggled with the structure of this one.

Oh no it was dissatisfying!

Lol I'm entirely here for Tony Stark's House of Bullets. Do a shot while shooting some shots!!

There were things here that I liked but overall a big ol meh from me.

I was bored on the info page and I was bored throughout and I'm still bored now. I may never stop.

Uhh I didn't really care for this, and found the backup confusing.

I find this to be a little over-written.

Deeply unenjoyable.

Still cute!

Such a blah wrap-up to a blah comic.

Comic book brain science is my absolute favourite kind of brain science.

I just find this such an enjoyable read, since it's so fast and well-paced, but it would probably be better if it had more to it.

Obviously the Squad has had heroes and hero-types before, but I don't know, it seems really stupid to keep actively kidnapping them? The whole point with previous hero or hero-coded team members was that they were like tortured and shit. They had emotional baggage that led to them joining and staying with the Squad. Not just... literally being kidnapped. Heroes aren't going to rouse themselves to liberate villains who could very easily be lying to them about why they're on the Squad. They absolutely will in order to rescue a kidnapped hero. It's a dumb plan! There are speedster villains! Also you already have a Superboy! Who is a massive liability! I hate heroes! Keep them off the Squad!

Fine!

Yes, I also think Storm is pretty cool.

This was very uneven.

This was okay I guess.

Damn RIP to that guy's bar. He didn't want any trouble smh.

Every time I remember the Squadron Supreme I laugh and laugh and laugh.

Honestly I can do nothing but respect such a clean and simple plan.

Solid issue.

I don't really enjoy reading this ):

Some of these were good and some of them weren't but my god the gimmick grows more annoying with every colour theme anthology I read.

I like the main story more or less, and shan't address the backup.

"I'm not even convinced what you're doing here is ethical" the words you're looking for are "is unethical" queen. Also, why are we recycling the recent Jessica Drew retcon??

I am so incredibly here for Robbie Robertson & Tombstone brotp, please let this continue for a thousand years.

Welp! I won't miss this!

Good still.

I found this a little hard to get into but in the end it was okay.

This is all fine but not super exciting.

Wow is that what the kids are calling dialogue these days? RIP.

Fine! A little standard, but fine!

Okay.

Guys he's... he's clearly still wearing a Robin outfit. Guys? How bad are all of you at tracking people, damn.

There's a lot going on here but I mostly liked it.

This was pretty good.

Maybe someone should give MODOK a hug.

I actually quite liked this? I don't know! It's good!

Foolish mother, you can't teach me to sculpt! I'm a shapeshifter! This makes perfect sense and I will not be taking questions at this time.

Ooo cool.

Absolute cowardice to imply at the very end that they don't live together as husbands, tbh.

I won't lie that little golf clap appreciation of Cyclops beating that other mutant really did it for me.

I liked this!

I am a big fan of Skurge.

Some of these were good and some of them weren't but my god the gimmick grows more annoying with every colour theme anthology I read.

I was maybe not in the right frame of mind for this one.

A solid read but I really just hate time travel so much.

I don't know, I didn't like this one.

Uhhh this was fine.

I liked this in concept and mostly in execution, though there were a few hiccoughs.

Things are going great.

Not bad.

I like Gold Beetle in principle but her River Song vibes are so strong and so annoying.

Some of these were good and some of them weren't but my god the gimmick grows more annoying with every colour theme anthology I read.

Roger, if she doesn't treat you right by now, you're gone.

Damn we all really hate Fabian Cortez huh?

Obviously I have minor qualms with the whole "the billionaires will save us" idea but on the whole I'm giving this one a thumbs up.

I keep forgetting who writes this comic and then I open it up and a cold thrill of horror zips up my spine. Good backup but my god, the main story.

I mean... good for him?

Good, good.

Eh fine I guess.

Okay.

Okay, but started to drag a bit around the end.

Some of these were good and some of them weren't but my god the gimmick grows more annoying with every colour theme anthology I read.

Honestly, I am living for the Statler and Waldorf snakes. Snaketler and... Hissdorf? I don't know I'll work on it.

I'm still enjoying this.

Well I'm glad we're not fire punching each other anymore at least.

Enjoyable.

You'd think by now they'd have at least attempted anti-facehugger masks, huh?

Solid comic.

Fine!

Harsh, dude.

So cute.

Dramatic.

Main story is good, don't care about Punchline still.

Perfectly fine.

Well I for one trust these space pyjamas completely.

Things are going great.

Okay listen I would read a Wolvermean ongoing and tbh I think it's a crime that one isn't already in production.

I am going to die, and when I do please put "slain by comic book brain science" on my grave.

Wow he sure is strong and unkillable why don't you tell me about it again.

I skimmed a lot of this...

I quite enjoyed the Journey to the Centre of the Patsy.

Oh Doom. ¤ï¸

Ah yes, my favourite hero..... Kevin....... Hawk.........e?

Waaaah it's not fair that we should have to protect ourselves during a deadly alien invasion waaaaaaah.

Loved it like always.

I do respect the sentiment of Gabriel's section but I think it highlights a very "I'm not like one of them" mindsets that only holds marginalized peoples back and pits them against one another. Things like "I'm not like one of those gay men, I like sports and beer and mowing my lawn" or "I'm not like one of those girls, I read books and hate the colour pink" or "I'm not like one of those black people, I do well in school and actually love my family." The implication of course being that 1) most of them are actually like that, and 2) being like one of those is to be lesser, to not be worthy of time or respect. Only by conforming to dominant norms or enacting "correct" behaviours does one become someone valuable. Someone that it is okay to be. I don't know, I just think it's something to notice and think about.

A little tedious.

Well, as betrayals go it's not so bad...

This score is mostly for the bookending stories tbh.

Batman talking about how everything hurts when you're old... same, king. Also like... Batman has legit saved the whole universe so... omnicide it is, I guess.

About the same as always.

A little too cliché for me but I liked the energy.

Cool, cool.

Cool!

Still very interesting!

I'm beginning to feel like we can't trust the people who run this town.

Okay.

Uhhhh?

Damn RIP.

That was also nice.

That was so nice.

Gasp.

Well I don't know who any of these people were but I am helpless to do anything but love and respect Chip.

Very quick.

Cool.

Spooky.

Jophiel is genuinely such a mood.

Feels like we're forgetting the purpose of the Suicide Squad here but okay.

So good as always, I love you Runaways.

Nice.

Fine!

Truly we are all the king in black on this blessed day.

Uhhhh okay.

Sick.

Fine!

"I can't go on living in this emotionless hell," they said emotionally, surrounded by distressed/angry people, on a world that is rioting for uh super non-emotional reasons, beaten back by armed enforcers who seem pretty angry, upset, sad and/or panicked, which are definitely not emotions you guys don't worry about it.

I guess we fixed suicidal ideation?? Big if true.

The dialogue is so bad.

Okay.

Main story good, backup so-so.

Okay then.

Good!

I'm kind of extremely here for Randy & Janice modern day Romeo and Juliet (with bank heists).

They shoulda come out of that a polycule tbh.

I just don't like this writing!

Bleh.

This is Katana. She could cut all you in half with one sword stroke just like mowing the lawn. I would advise not getting killed by her. Her sword traps the souls of its victims.

This child really doesn't have much forgiveness, damn.

Barry please he killed ten people.

Fine I guess.

A little fragment-y again, very Tom King in style.

Pretty good opener tbh.

Fine ending.

Fine!

Bleh.

This felt like a precipitous decrease in quality.

Tell me more about lobsters, skull daddy.

Now kiss.

Smh so disappointed in Sif's lack of commitment to monsterfucking.

This cutting between things is really wearing on me.

Eh I liked some of the art?

Solid.

This was pretty weak but I'm hoping that's just first issue issues and it'll get better.

This was a great ending!

Okay.

This wouldn't have happened if the superheroes fixed the socioeconomic inequalities like they promised. ):

Bleh!

Eh.

This was a liiiiiiiittle on the chaotic side for me but honestly not bad.

Cool, cool.

Bleh.

This was good! I'm intrigued!

Love that it's short!

Some of these were good and some of them weren't but my god the gimmick grows more annoying with every colour theme anthology I read.

This one gave me vibes. What kind of vibes? Great question.

This was very quick, which I appreciated.

This was neat!

Some of these were good and some of them weren't but my god the gimmick grows more annoying with every colour theme anthology I read.

Honestly, I'm here for all of it.

Oh wow yeah this art sure is. huh. it sure is.

Honestly just... the amount of talking was so refreshing. You know the sense of relief you feel when you stop being in pain? That's this comic.

I swear this story is like tailor-made for me and yet...

Not to be dramatic but I would die for both Throg and Bats.

I'm still into this.

The first one was good, the second one made me extremely uncomfortable (yeah limiting access to substances has always been so super effective at fixing drug crises, Superman is for sure the person who can fix the systemic and mental health issues that drive people to do drugs lol), third one was fine, fourth one at least had some purpose to the colour theme and was therefore the best, the fifth one was fine.

Solid ending!

Cool.

Oh no... I... liked this? A good Nightwing comic? In THIS economy??

Fine!

Why did we not call this KiB Reptil hmmm?

God it's so embarrassing how the opening of this comic is Bendis insisting that it was actually very cool and sexy of him to make Superman reveal his identity to everyone. Also, you're so right, literal billionaire. The best thing you can do to better this world is take on more unpaid interns. Hang the workers all power to the parasites tbh.

I don't know I feel like I could get behind being a mindless crystalline creature just up to nothing all day...

I feel like I've just had a ton of exposition vomited upon me.

Okay.

I found the flow of things a little annoying but on the whole I think this was good.

I demand more snats.

Not a big fan of this kind of writing. Some of the art was nice but not enough to make me enjoy reading it.

Aw he's so terrible; I love him.

I liked the vibes.

This gives me weird vibes but I'm willing to roll with it for now.

Once again perfectly serviceable, once again I am asking for a purpose to this series as a whole.

Cute but not exactly important reading.

So dramatic.

I expected nothing and was pleasantly surprised! This score is not taking into account the Punchline story, which I read but don't want to talk about!

I feel like this was a lot more comprehensible than recent issues and for that I am grateful.

Good stuff.

I'm just... I'm so grateful this isn't by Bendis. I think I'm tearing up, my god.

Inoffensive.

The implication of Pontius Pirate the musical immediately made this a near perfect comic tbh.

Can No One Stop This Spider-Man From Talking.

Great.

Cool.

Some of these were okay but the ones that were not were really annoying.

I love this comic so much.

So many words but not like bad, you know?

This was okay.

I am so extremely here for Dad Hood it's unreal.

Boomerang. ¤ï¸

On principle I really liked this, but I do think that some of the dialogue was a little clunky and that was annoying.

I'm intrigued!

Jophiel just slowly going insane while the other two are immediately ensorcelled, I love that.

I don't know if this one just hit me in a good mood or what but man the vibes on this one, I liked it a lot.

This is solid so far.

Nice.

noooOOOOO

So cute.

Like... it's fine. It's Man-Bat. I don't know what you're expecting here.

I liked their energy.

What're we some kinda death troupe?

I liked the art, the story was fine.

This was so annoying to read, it took me so long.

Based on this I'm not really excited for anything. I'm not not excited but like. Whatevs.

Dang they really did that.

I liked this one a little less than previous ones.

I really liked the art.

I never have any goddamn idea what is happening and I can't decide if that's good or bad lol.

Good, good.

Oof this dialogue.

Okay look I love Scarecrow. I love him and I'm not sorry about it. I don't care that his new look is a whole Look. I love him, I will forgive anything for my spooky little boy.

God this is too much talking. I am losing so much of my patience.

I found the exposition and dialogue a bit clunky but, overall, I'm intrigued.

Okay!

I had a hard time reading this but maybe I was just in a mood.

I find the structure of this comic very annoying.

If only I knew who any of these people are! I added a .5 because I always hoped that Snakes was snakes, and he is, and I think that's beautiful.

This went by so fast, which I both love and respect.

Bleh.

So many plots!

Anthologies are always rough and this was not a particularly good anthology.

Imagine choosing to wear such an ugly outfit to a school dance imagine hating yourself that much.

Bleh.

A solid issue.

Bored.

I did not enjoy reading this.

No backups again lol.

But did the fish get to go back to his little fish family?? I'm going to be haunted by this for the rest of my life.

This is why I say nothing good comes of the future!

I liked this one. It had good vibes.

This feels like it takes ten years to read.

Elaborate heist of Black Cat's trauma and moral lines! I'll take it!

I just don't really understand the point of these comics.

Feelings!

I do not enjoy this style.

throg throg throg thrOG THROG THROG THROG

So much betrayal.

Solid enough.

Very quick read, which I approve of.

Fine.

Hang the parasites! More power to the workers!

Gwenpool usage was a little up and down.

Sick.

Fine but not exactly a thrill ride.

I'm beginning to think Tony's not doing so great.

This was okay.

I wish I knew more about some things.

I didn't read the backups. ¤ï¸

That sure had some sort of pace. The stuff with Viv was interesting though.

Get your shit together Steve, that was such an obvious lure.

Clones. :/

Nice conclusion.

A little annoying to read tbh.

I love my boy but not this so much.

Honestly not bad tbh.

So much talking.

I really liked this one! His creative move names! Adorable!

Good issue.

Still very good.

Cute! But lotta monologuing today.

I'd let Batroc and Star tag-team bully me any day.

Fine!

Cool.

Somehow even worse character writing than usual??

Bleh.

This is a cool story tbh.

God help me I kind of like Elektra??

Nice.

Writer can dialogue and does understand how pheromones work.

Nice.

This raises so many questions.

Hectic!

Cool, cool.

Ugh no don't make him special just let him be a guy ugh.

Maybe I wasn't in the mood but I had a hard time with the organization of this one.

Interesting!

I dunno I thought it was cute.

Great always.

I liked some aspects of this. The art is nice.

This was a little slow?

Fine issue.

A little repetitive.

Aww this was kind of cute. Maybe a little much at times, but overall I liked it.

I love you just how you are, Joe Fixit.

I didn't get as deep into this one as previous ones.

I'm just in love with how much they all hate Mr Sinister, I love that for them.

This hurt me, physically and spiritually.

Very interesting comic.

Backups? Never heard of her. ¤ï¸

I wish I was more invested but at this point I'm just shrugging along, sighing emotionally like all these emotionless beings lol.

This man and his giant swords, god bless.

Fiiine.

I know this is a tiny little nitpick in the grand scheme of things, and don't even get me started on the politics of this whole story, but I cannot stand when men describe taking care of their own children as "babysitting."

Pretty good issue.

Just so boring.

So many words.

I skipped over the annoying smart guy robot moments and yet they still annoyed me.

Okay!

It really do be some stupid space shit.

Busy but intriguing.

Some of the art was good?

Bored.

Fiiine.

Bleh.

Aw this book deserved better than being cancelled tbh.

Still so good!

Fine but somewhat overwrought at times.

Kinda blah tbh.

Good issue.

Some of these were good.

Good issue.

Eh in theory this was cool.

Another great issue.

I just don't care about the bad future! I'm sorry! It's fine for what it is.

muh grandbabies

Cool, cool.

I liked this!

I didn't read the backups. ¤ï¸

Okay!

This one had some good jokes.

I enjoyed the floating babies.

elaborate heist elaborate heist elaborate heist

I find this... not hard to read, but annoying to read. I really liked the bits with the Phantasm and I wish we got that more consistently, I think she's a cool character and dang that aesthetic.

RIP to Quentin Quire tbh.

I gave this an extra .5 for hating Brexit lol.

Nice, nice.

Cool.

Batroc is best boy.

Bleh.

Okay!
