    Return Of Carnage (and friends)

    The Good: 
    Zeb Wells gives you just enough in this first issue to make you want to come back for more. The returns of some of Spider-Man's villains we haven't seen in quite a while is also a high point. Throw in these villains with new characters Blue Blue and Firebrick and it has me wishing the next issue hit shelves next week. At first I thought Clayton Crain's (X-Force) art was an odd choice but he really does a great job of capturing the characters in this opening issue.  
     
    The Bad: 
    It's priced at $3.99 which I find appalling for limited series. However, I can honestly say there isn't anything about this issue that I didn't like. It flowed really well and the story's first issue gave us some answers and some questions I want to see answered. 
     
    Final Thoughts: 
    This was just a really fun comic. It has its share of action, intrigue and humor. It left me wanting more and thats a great feeling for a limited series.  
     
    4/5

      The Return 0

      The Good: This comic's existence is a great thing for me. When I finally got into american comics, I found out my favorite Spider-Man villain Carnage had been presumed dead for quite a while. I had almost given up hope when I heard the announcement of this series. And I'm a hardcore DC fan. Deadpool is pretty much the only Marvel comic I buy. Well that and the Icon Millarworld stuff. I just had to get this. Crain's art is a great fit for this series. He does a great job at making everything look...
