I love how this story is going so far. The good thing is that they didn't mention about what happen to her with the Sisterhood, which was a very bad plot, only that her body was burned by Alison. I love how through out this plot, she has some inner conflict with herself. Not feeling the way she used to feel, all her memories that meant the most to her was in her original body. Her conversation with both Alison, Scott, and Logan was very interesting to read. One of the most new part was when she was confronted by the officers of Japan. Something that I didn't know was that they knew Kwannon was an assassin, I thought that was a secret that only a few people knew. The most excellent part in the story was her battle with the Hand ninjas. The artwork was so incredible and breathe taking. Normally when you see a psychic girl fight you think ooh this is going to be boring all they're going to do is make them kill each other, but for Psylocke, she relied only on her psychic knife and her fighting skills. The flash back that she had when she was in her original body was helpful to understand how she looked like and what her former life was before she became an X-Man and Asian. Overall of the story is that its a good one, and I recommend reading this issue. I'd give it a 5 out of 5. Good issue, can't wait for the second one.

Quick take on this one: So, I finally got around to finishing this comic. And it sucked pretty hard. I thought it was going to be awesome because I liked last years Halloween special so much...But I was wrong. There was only 2 maybe 3 stories that I enjoyed in the whole thing. And Alot of the art was suckish. If you see it in the next coming weeks or months for 50% off or something like that, then pick it up. Otherwise i'd skip this one. 2 out of 5.

Nice art, great heroes and a nice idea. The longer i read this title the less seems to be going on. I almost feel like the plot is a reason for the art. I like the book but i need more to keep up with it. I am waiting for the issue that really gets the story moving. Heres hoping it is SOON !

V for Vendetta : Well TB's for anyone who has ever seen the movie and or read the Comic Books/ Graphic Novel of this story knows that this is truly fun and a real blast , Alan Moore has become the British version of the Late Great Jack Kurby ( God Rest His Sou) who gave chaters like Captain American ,Fouth World , Black Owl Ect..... Alan Moore has also gave us equaly great Charters such as Judge Dredd , L.E.G vol 1&2 , V for Vendetta & Watch Men .

This issue needed to be. It hit critical plot points for the arc. That being said I wasn't wowed. It wasn't particularly funny and reading this just didn't sit right.
Issue 15 is easily my favorite issue (in years). I enjoyed the artwork and the way foreshadowing this issue presented. It also dealt with Deadpool being an "X-man" in a way I could accept. Way handled that well.

the second issue of this story does nothing but enhance the first. The art work continues to rock, as the does the story. Kirkman has a way of bringing strange and hilarious characters into his stories thats just amazing, and he does that a couple of times over this issue.
People said in the first issues reviews over and over that this isnt an origional concept. and i can see what they mean. As you read through Haunt, you feel a little Spiderman, a little Spawn, an little Punsiher, and a little Creeper. But its all the best parts of those characters, wraped around a bunch of great character and allot of potential. if you where turned off by issue number one for any reason, give it one more go with this issue. Becuase trust me, you dont want to be the guy who's trying to catch up in TPB's before he starts picking this sucker up on the shelves. I did that with Invincible, and boy did that suck.....

Im a little upset with myself for going to Disneyland Last week instead of picking this sucker up before it was gone. Luckily, there was a second printing, and thats what i got. I admit, there is a point in the middle of the story that seems like it waas too quick a transition. If your like me, you skipped back and read the previous coupleof pages again to see if you just missed something, and then it clicks that the event in question was skipped over for whatever reason. Its still obvious what happened, but you get a little turned around by the story skipping ahead a week without a caption. .... ok, now that i got that out of the way, you can soak in my buckets of creamy enjoyment that this comic exist! Haunt does not LOOK like an origional idea in the slightest. Its been said repeatedly in other reviews that it looks much like a cross between Spawn and Symbiote Spiderman. But like most good stories, you cant judge this one by its coverart. the things to look for in this story arent the fights and powers, its the character interactions. You have 2 brothers who cant be more unalike. daniel, a preacher who apparently has weekly apointments with a hooker and hates his life, and Kurt, a killer secret agent who cares a great deal for everyone in his life. Daniel HATES his brother. with a passion. And apparently, he hates Kurt's wife too, like maybe they dated once or she cheated on him with his brother. Something is tehre, and its intense too. And now, as haunt, Daniel is undoubtely going to have to deal with killers and loved ones from Kurt's life. This is the stuff great tv shows are made of. Great thanks to Robert Kirkman and McFarlane for the idea. and You have just got to love the fantastic art that comes from a Ryan Ottley/McFarlane collaboration. This was a good first issue, but trust me... it gets better. I already have issue 2 in my hands, and after over a year of loving Invincible and Tech Jacket (both Kirkman creations), and seeing the massive amount of time Spawn has been around, and already having read and loved issue 2, i can just tell that this is going to be a great book to read!

I have been loving this new version of the doom patrol
Then I see that issue 4 is part of the blackest night I was pumped! This is the first real tie in that isn't a mini to come out, so i was a little nervous I had no reason to be scared at all, very well done! It really seems that all these things tied into the blackest night are very well done, and actually shown real quality which is nice to see in a event.

Last issue, Spider-man won round one vs. Mysterio but he didn't know that Mysterio was plotting to repay the webslinger for ruining his bank robbery pay off. How can he? The life of teenage Peter Parker is full of complexity. The Human Torch is Pete's new addition to the family. Mary Jane still pines away for Pete. Pete still struggles to find time for all the things going on in his life that makes it easier for Mysterio to fool Pete.
There's also a new "hood" wandering the streets of Queens. Bendis is at his best bringing to life the civilian perspective of a super hero. In many ways the life of Peter Parker is more interesting (by way of DeGrassi episode) than his life as spider-man. The art captures that feeling of Archie/Anime style and this feeling of kids but not overshadowing the issues involved. Pete's life is going to be a whole lot more complicated provided he can survive Mysterio. Speaking of Mysterio, after all that effort taking out the Kingpin, you'd think he'd go after Fisk's money and have some underlings to help him rather than robbing a bank by himself. Also why reveal yourself to the news? Alerting people to your existence doesn't create any um, mystique? Rating: Buy it. It's teenage high adventure. One note to Mr. Bendis: Queens is a part of New York City but living in the city is synonymous with living in Manhattan.

As many know, i read most JLA just to see red tornado, so when i saw this mini coming out, I was more than pumped
Finding the other elements of yourself is a pretty cool concept, but i just feel a let down, and i don't really know why The story just does not seem to flow like it should, the art is very well done! it just seems like the writing could have been better.

Recently, i've been reading more and more of Kirkman's work and to be honest, not one bit of it has been a let down yet.
Haunts first issue started out terribly generic, and like i said the whole time, its just a first issue, wait till the second one! Well then the second one came, and went above and beyond my expectations. Tons of action, well done art show offs of haunts powers all linked together with a well written story with a crazy cliffhanger at the end? How could you not love this issue!? 5 out of 5, the best comic to come out this week, hands down

This is easily one of the best comics I've read in years!
I have loved Deadpool since before it was cool. This book has so much and by so many. We have space aliens, mime's, therapists. Everything you could ever want in a comic! And it brings onto the project so many big names in deadpooldom. From new people like Mike Benson and Pete Woods and legends like Joe Kelly and Rob Liefield (on the same story ARE YOU SERIOUS MARVEL? EPIC EXPLOSION!). But I have to say even though they all are entertaining I loved Miek Benson's story the best. It really had a great twist at the end. And the end to the last new story was very similar to the end of my most recent episode of my fan series (STOP READING MY MIND MARVEL!).

An idea that sounds badass not turning out to well at all. It's sort of a ripoff of the DC vs Marvel event of the 90's seeing how we got.... A Universe ready to be whiped out, A God like being, and Fusions that are Kind of..... LAME!!!!! And Mr. Majestic's Amalgam isn't so Majestic. :P
