Second Coming Chapter 3: Keeps up the pace of the event, disappointing that the New Mutants don't get all that much character time and all Cable and Hope do is run away again, but the art was very good if perhaps quite static. Silver
Marvel Zombies 5 #1 (Van Lente/Kano)
Didn't pick this up when it actually came out but I'm certainly glad I eventually did. Kano's art is great, does a great job with the setting. Machine Man not in this issue much and I have no prior knowledge of Howard the Duck but promising new character Jacali and the Martian Protectorate setting with Killraven next issue have me sold. Gold
The Savage Axe of Ares #1
Red Mercury (Hurwitz/Smith) The Gods Answer All Prayers (Barber/Palo) Bonebomb Babylon (McKeever) Wojna (Swierczynski/Manco)
Wouldn't have given this a thought if I hadn't read Ryan K Lindsey's review at The Weekly Crisis, which I feel pretty well sums up my thoughts on the issue. Red Mercury was good but felt strung out, The Gods Answer All Prayers and Wojna were great and Bonebomb Babylon was the weakest with inconsistent art but still ok. Gold
