SPOILERS ALERT
My favorite story was Hulk meeting Jackie Estacado (though I am confused how he's just walking around the Marvel Universe all willy-nilly). Those 2 should meet/team up more often.
I enjoyed the concept behind Wolverine and Witchblade in Vegas, but I did not care for its execution. It was another tale that was rushed. And why can I not read the story of when Logan met the Witchblade before?
What disappointed me was the ease in which Silver Surfer dispatched Mephisto. This "big baddie" was undone by surfer not even giving a 2nd thought? The arc was fair, possessing some great moments and "one-hit wonder" type team up shots, but did not feel too grand; which it should have been.
