President Thor is one of my favourite Ultimate Fantastic Four story arcs. It's only in three parts, so it's nice and simple, and you get to see what would've happened if the Fantastic Four didn't get their powers. This is the final part of the story arc, and it's awesome. I love the line the Super-Skrull says to Ben Grimm- "Congratulations Mister Grimm. You're officially the last surviving member of your species." What really makes this issue so awesome, though, is the irony that because Ben didn't get superpowers, he manages to save the day. Nothing like irony.

Wow, it's Giant Sized X-Men #1. When I read this the first time, I enjoyed it every bit as much as I still do today. I found the plot exciting, the new characters (especially that legend Nightcrawler) creative, but there's one thing about this issue I don't like: the artwork. Sure, Dave Cockrum is really notable in doing the art for this legendary issue, but that doesn't mean his art is that good.

Apart from the art, this is a really good issue. The thing that makes me enjoy it so much is the action. Even in the scenes without any real action, such as Prof X talking to Sunfire, you can still get the sense that they need to hurry before the X-Men are killed. It has the return of some old characters like Banshee and Sunfire, and some legendary new ones. This is the kind of issue that only comes out once every three or so years. It's brilliant.

But the best thing about it is the fact that they're all fighting a giant island. Didn't see that coming.

The 500th issue is one hell of a good read. It has action for the action lovers, a good plot developing, and the beginning of a new age for the X-Men. This is one comic that I definitely have not regretted buying. It has a massive battle with Magneto, some sinister plot involving the High Evolutionary and a new group called the Hellfire Cult. I really want to buy UXM #501 after reading this issue, cos it's so goddamn good!

This issue has it all. The return of a famous superhero, the world's greatest team against Namor, and the death of Bucky Barnes. The one bit in this issue I don't like is the part where an alien turns the Avengers to stone; I really don't like it when they add aliens or robots to issues that they're out of place in. Apart from that minor  flaw, this is a classic. The cover has a brilliant picture  of the Avengers, all ready for action and prepared to fight  for justice.  The style is just great, without having to add any unnecessary  speech bubbles or captions explaining why you should by this issue. Classic. Thats the only word you need.

This has got to be my favourite Runaways issue out so far. It has such and amazing ending, you just can't miss. It has an amazing fight with Geoffrey Wilder, Nico almost dying (until its revealed it was actually Xavin) and above all... THE NIGHT GERTRUDE YORKES DIED!!!!! Who can say no to such an amazing issue? The first time I read it, I kinda blanked out for a few minutes as it sunk in that Gert was dead. Runaways fans, this is THE ONE!!!!
