Formulaic, repetitive, and rushed? Yes.

(For the record, I'm describing this book, not my lovemaking technique, though critics would note substantial overlap in the Venn diagram of those two things.)

But, also super fun, appropriately goofy, and an absolute joy of a concept.

I love that the omnibuses (omnibi?) reprint the fan letters; it adds to the fun.

It's a solid four star for me. It gives a great picture of that era of early seventies stories, I really liked the letter pages, people commenting on the stories and sometimes on other topics like the comic code or the (then) current state of comics. The art was great throughout the book with some minor dips in quality. I would give this a five star because I love these stories, and this edition was my second time reading these but the stories and origins of villains or the sometimes repetitive construction of the narrative made me revoke one star. My favorite issue is the team up with Shang-Chi. I hope they continue this book with a second volume this year. One suggestion for future readers: skip the three introductions because Roy Thomas likes to dive into the upcoming stories and that might spoil it for first time readers. Read those after you've read the stories, they are great as always.

The problem with these team-up volumes, especially older ones like Marvel Team-Up is a lack of continuity. Even though MTU had a pretty consistent (and good) author in Gerry Conway for much of this volume, we still get so very little characterization, few supporting characters, and pretty much no subplot.

So we get fights, issues and issues and issues of fights. The team-up members are intriguing because they really show off the Marvel Universe at the time. And there' sa Doc Savage team-up in here which is surprising and quite enjoyable. But most of these stories are 100% forgettable.
