Good. I have some issues with the Alaska stories, and I prefer Gell’s art to everyone else in this volume (honorable mention to the Trevor Von Eden pages) though I sometimes blame the inker.

Great book so far. Ross’s art is, as always…, well… fantastic. I’m enjoying the writing, but it’s a book for fans of the FF. It’s not a book for someone who knows little to nothing about these iconic characters. THIS page (32), it seems to me,is a rebuke of Marvel’s FF output in the last few decades.

Excellent writing, especially the end. Not enough room here to quote.

The First story arc, Long Bow Hunters is a solid bit of storytelling. Art and Story by Mike Grell with colors by Julia Lacquement.

James Elkins is on page 805 of 1006 of Moon Knight Omnibus, Vol. 1
Moon Knight issue 15 is an exemplary done in one and also the first direct market issue of the series. From this point on you could only get Moon Knight through comic shops or subscription. 75¢ and a better story (and maybe twice as many words) than you get in many six issue story arcs since 2010.

Just gets better and better. This page (787) is weird with Gena seemingly ignoring a family that come to the diner. Page 788 and 789 offer some foreshadowing.

Fuck. I have truly come to hate Bendis. His progressive bigotry and casual racism aside, he doesn’t understand or ignores the original characters… character. I have never wished for a 14 year old Jim Shooter than I am at this moment. I don’t know if I can finish it.

I like the Rose/Thorn angle. I like most of the art. There are indications that it may contain more nonsense from today’s progressive ideology (character redesign and verbiage at points), and I can’t help but think Bendis is going to ruin LSH like he did Superman and Justice League.

Silver Surfer LITERALLY went against Galactus which is how he got stuck on Earth.

Was Scott Lang Ant-Man when Jack of Hearts was alive? I thought it was Pym.

I should have mentioned this on page 49 (as Jen should have mentioned to Ben and Ben should have mentioned to the cop) Lockjaw is not a dog. He is an Inhuman and a member of their royal family. That’s why he doesn’t need a leash.

Pages 45-49 and 61-63 look like they’re by one artist and 50-61 and 64 look like someone else. Like maybe Luca Maresca who takes over penciler duties on page 65

Frame 2. Neither of those heroes have a job. I believe one is a Queen. Janet Van Dyne works outside the home. She’s a model and fashion designer I think.

Nothing really happens here that couldn’t have happened in half the pages. Great art. Favorite page is 42, where she picks up the ambulance, cars in a line at the intersection didn’t feel like it made sense if traffic was that bad, but still a nice sequence.

I’m guessing on how the page count syncs up with the printed/digital collection as I am reading it digitally issue by issue.

This fight with Titania should be max 6 pages instead of 13. Not a knock on the art BTW. I wouldn’t change pages 5 or 14. the splash page/pin-up on page 6 is okay. I think it’s supposed to be a fan-service/reveal, but it falls short in both regards. It could have easily have been a long frame on the next page and not affected the story, amount of fan-service, or the reveal.

When did dynamic, confident, fight for her innocent client become this meek thing that forgot she was something before she was She-Hulk
