Review: AVENGERS #1 (2018)
AVENGERS No. 1 (2018)
MARVEL COMICS – @Marvel
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
STORY: Jason Aaron
PENCILS: Ed McGuinness
INKS: Mark Morales
COLORS: David Curiel
LETTERS: VC's Cory Petit
EDITOR: Tom Brevoort
COVER: Ed McGuinness and Mark Morales with Justin Ponsor
VARIANT COVER ARTISTS: Aaron Kuder with Jason Keith; Greg Land and Jay Leisten with Frank D'Armata; Esad Ribic

Rated “T+”
Avengers created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby
“The Final Host”
In the 1970s and 1980s, Marvel Comics published comic book adaptations of popular and cult science fiction and fantasy films, from the Stars Wars films to movies like Dune (1984) and The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension (1984). Some of them had beautiful art (Al Williamson's killer work on Marvel's The Empire Strikes Back adaptation), but the script adaptations were often weak. Reading these film to comic book adaptations was like reading storyboards for a film with some of the boards were missing. That is when you realize the “motion” in motion pictures makes the medium of film not all that related to the medium of comic books with its static or still graphics.
The Avengers #1 that arrived on Wednesday, May 2, 2018 got me to thinking about comic books that try to capture the sound and vision of films. We see comic book writers trying to write for comic books the kind of big, loud, special-effects driven stories that only films can tell. Once upon a time, people said that comic book stories that were written like other comic books were bad things. Now, we have comic books trying too hard to be like films and television. That is the real problem, and brother, Avengers #1 2018 has many problems.
Marvel Comics is just beginning another relaunch of its comic book line, something called “Fresh Start.” The venerable publisher is returning to its “Legacy” characters after publishing new versions of those classic characters – new versions that some retards described as “black, homo, and freaking female.” So enter Avengers #1 2018 (Legacy #691). It is written by Jason Aaron; drawn by Ed McGuinness (pencils) and Mark Morales (inks); colored by David Curiel; and lettered by Cory Petit. At the core of this old-is-new Avengers are classic (white male) Tony Stark/Iron Man, classic (white male) Thor, and classic (white male) Steve Rogers/Captain America.
Avengers #1 (Legacy #691) opens on Earth, one million years ago and depicts the Avengers of 1,000,000 BC. Then it moves to present day Earth, where Thor and Steve Rogers are trying to convince a reluctant Tony Stark that the world needs the Avengers to return, and the Avengers can only return the right way with them – the original Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man. It may no longer be a matter of choice when cosmic beings start falling to Earth.
It is clear to me that Marvel is trying to make the Avengers 2018 comic book series be as close to Marvel Studios' Avengers movies as possible. Writer Jason Aaron tries to make it seem like there is a story here and not just action scenes, but there is not much of a story here. This is the Avengers comic book as a Michael Bay movie – if Bay did a mash-up of his Transformers films and the Avengers films. Avengers #1 is big, loud silent scream, and Aaron squeezes in a few quiet, faux-character scenes, mostly featuring the She-Hulk and the Ghost Rider, in a failed bid at adding substance.
Marvel Comics' problems are not “diversity characters.” The main problem is the embrace of event comic books and other publishing stunts that are flash instead of story. DC Comics got the message, and its 2016 “Rebirth” initiative was a return to an emphasis on story, even when those stories may be average at best. At least, DC and its creative teams are working at giving readers substance in story, plot, and character.
Maybe another problem is that many of Marvel's best writers have moved on from Marvel. Most of the really good comic book writers that wrote for Marvel over the last two decades (Mark Millar and Ed Brubaker, for example) are now in Hollywood, at Amazon or Netflix, or are producing comic books for Image Comics. Marvel is left with writers like Jason Aaron and Cullen Bunn who are inconsistent, writing comic books that are surprisingly good or woefully average. And in his bid to make an Avengers comic book act like an Avengers movie, Aaron delivers woeful with Avengers #1 2018.
Marvel is also constantly recycling pencil artist Ed McGuinness, but as usual, his drawing style is pleasing to the eye, although McGuinness' art looks like a chibi slash lolicon version of the art of flaky comic book creator, Arthur Adams. David Curiel's colors over McGuinness and Mark Morales' (inker) illustrations are gorgeous, though. Of Avengers #1 2018's creative team, Curiel delivers the best work.
In about a year or so, the sales of Avengers 2018 will be less than half of what Avengers #1 2018 is now. Who will get the blame, then? Marvel Comics' editorial policy? Marvel's recycled creative teams? Scapegoat “diversity characters?”
This is an Avengers comic book trying to be event entertainment, when being a good comic book is all that is necessary to please most comic book readers. And no, Avengers #1 is not worth its $4.99 cover price.

Review: MARVEL LEGACY #1
MARVEL LEGACY No. 1
MARVEL COMICS – @Marvel
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
STORY: Jason Aaron
ART: Esad Ribic with Steve McNiven
COLORS: Matthew Wilson
LETTERS: VC's Cory Petit
ADDITIONAL ARTISTS: Chris Samnee; Russell Dauterman; Alex Maleev; Ed McGuinness; Stuart Immonen and Wade von Grawbadger; Pepe Larraz; Jim Cheung; Daniel Acuña; Greg Land and Jay Leisten; Mike Deodato, Jr.; David Marquez

64pp, Color, $5.99 U.S. (November 2017)
Rated T+
Marvel Legacy #1 is a new one-shot comic book from Marvel Comics. I don't really know its purpose, other than what I read on the Internet. After a year of reportedly falling sales of its comic books, Marvel does what it and DC Comics normally do: initiate a reboot or a re-launch or hit-the-refresh/restart button, etc. Such a rehash... I mean such a refresh is usually preceded by some kind of large scale publishing event, as it was here. I guess that was the Secret Empire miniseries and the corresponding tie-ins and spin-offs.
SO I'LL SAVE YOU SOME TIME: Marvel Legacy #1 has a few entertaining moments, with the best being the Wolverine reveal. Some of it piqued my interest, but most it fell flat for me. If you are looking for something exceptional, great, memorable, etc., Marvel Legacy #1 is not it, and it certainly is not worth the $5.99 cover price. That said, you only need to keep reading this review if you usually enjoy my ramblings...
So here we go again; Marvel Legacy #1 launches the next big start-over. I have read a lot of web commentary in which people compare this comic book to DC Comics' DC Universe Rebirth from last year. I don't see the resemblance, and Rebirth has purpose and direction (at least to me), whereas Marvel Legacy #1 reads like a bunch of teasing and anticipation balled up together.
Marvel Legacy #1 has an omniscient narrator, Valeria Richards, the second child of Reed Richards and Sue Storm of the Fantastic Four. She talks about legacies and begins her narration “One Million Years Ago.” Something happened back then; that something plus some more bad stuff is coming back today. Get ready.
Yep, that's it – something wicked this way comes, eventually. The main story is written by Jason Aaron and drawn mainly by Esad Ribic, with some of it drawn by Steve McNiven. Interspersed between segments of the main story are some one and two-page excerpts from upcoming Legacy launches – like Mark Waid and Chris Samnee's upcoming run on Captain America (Steve Rogers).
That's what this is all about, right? A return to original i.e. traditional i.e. “white” characters. Some believe that Marvel angered its aging white male fan base by recasting too many of its characters as black, Latino, Asian, female or some combination thereof. Here's an anecdote for you. For years, white male comic book readers told me that they did not want white comic books or black comic books, but they wanted good comic books. Okay... Black male Spider-Man, Black female Iron Man, White female Hawkeye, Pan-Asian Muslim Ms. Marvel, White lady Thor are the leads of some very well written comic book series. I know that because I read them. But whiny White comic book retailers, clueless comic book corporate middle management, and fans who don't read books they complain about are driving this need for Marvel Comics to reset.
But the real villains here are Marvel Comics' shitty editorial decisions, arrogant management, piss-poor publishing plans, and virtually non-existent marketing. Marvel Legacy #1 exists for the same reasons Marvel NOW, All-New Marvel NOW, and Marvel Now & Laters existed – all of the above and Marvel's addiction to the sales bump it gets from #1 issues.
Marvel Comics publishes too many comic books and has been doing so for 30 years. Many of those comic books exist because Marvel will throw a lot of money at “star creators” to produce comics; or because someone will come up with some cute gimmick; or simply to grab more market share; or because a hit Marvel Studios movie will mean launching 10 new comic books directly, indirectly, vaguely, and/or even tangentially related to the movie. Baby Groot the comic book series, y'all.
Too many titles frustrate readers for various readers, but especially because they cannot keep up with all those new comic books. Marvel Legacy #1 is another pretend fix for symptoms that arise from Marvel's poor decision making. That decision making needs a cure; the symptoms will go away after the cure. For all Marvel's talk of a return to classic Marvel storytelling, next year it will do something like recast all its characters as Buddhists golden retrievers.
Marvel Comics' real legacy is that, no matter who owned Marvel, they never appreciated the artists and writers who really created the characters and stories that made Marvel a business and cultural force. They held on tightly to Spider-Man, the X-Men, the Fantastic Four, Iron Man, and more while being dismissive of the talent, Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, that drew those characters into existence. Did it ever occur to those bosses how many more great characters and stories creators like Kirby and Ditko would have created for Marvel had the bosses acknowledged them financially and personally in a manner befitting people who multi-million dollar franchises?
So Marvel Legacy #1 epitomizes Marvel's real legacy – the short-sighted, self-serving choices instead of the long term choices that come with more risk and less immediate gratification. Plus, Marvel Legacy #1 is just another comic book, fast food hamburger off the corporate conveyor belt – granted that there is some rather nice art inside.

Review: GENERATIONS: The Unworthy Thor & The Mighty Thor #1
GENERATIONS: THE UNWORTHY THOR & THE MIGHTY THOR No. 1
MARVEL COMICS – @Marvel
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
WRITER: Jason Aaron
ARTIST: Mahmud Asrar
COLORS: Jordie Bellaire
LETTERS: VC's Joe Sabino
COVER: Mahmud Asrar with Jordie Bellaire
VARIANT COVERS: Olivier Coipel with Jason Keith; Das Pastoras; Alex Ross; Jack Kirby with Paul Mounts; Dale Keown with Jason Keith
36pp, Color, $4.99 U.S. (October 2017)
Rated T+
Thor created by Stan Lee, Larry Lieber, and Jack Kirby
“The Thunder”
Generations is Marvel Comics' current event miniseries. It is a planned 10-issue anthology, published weekly. Each issue is written and drawn by a different creative team, and each issue will feature a different team-up of a classic Marvel superhero with his or her modern-day counterpart. The series is meant to unite the legacy of classic Marvel Comics characters with the next generation of heroes as both move into the future of Marvel Comics storytelling.
The fourth issue is Generations: The Unworthy Thor & The Mighty Thor, which brings together two versions of a classic Marvel Comics character, Thor. The first is the classic Odinson, Thor, first introduced in Journey into Mystery #83 (cover date: August 1962), and is now known as “The Unworthy Thor.” The second is the new Thor, Jane Foster. Once she was the love interest of Dr. Donald Blake (who was once Thor... so to speak). Now, Foster is known as “The Mighty Thor.” This issue of Generations is written by Jason Aaron; drawn by Mahmud Asrar; colored by Jordie Bellaire; and lettered by Joe Sabino.
Generations: The Unworthy Thor & The Mighty Thor #1 (“The Thunder”) opens “many years ago” in the “Weapons Hall” of Asgard, the home of the Norse god, Odin, and his subjects, the Asgardians. Odin's son is trying to lift the enchanted hammer, “Mjolnir.” Thor is rebuked by his father for his efforts, and is commanded to take on his princely duties. The son of Odin, however, cannot resist the call/prayers of his followers on Midgard (Earth). Before long he is leading them into battle against a familiar supervillain and is also facing a rival for Mjolnir.
The purpose of Generations: Banner Hulk & Totally Awesome Hulk #1 was for Bruce Banner to tell the Totally Awesome Hulk/Amadeus Cho that he would not be able to escape all the tragic aspects of the curse of the Hulk. Generations: Phoenix & Jean Grey found two women reluctant and/or incapable of telling each other everything they knew about the curse of The Phoenix
Generations: Wolverine & All-New Wolverine #1 is mainly just a slice-and-dice Wolverine adventure featuring the classic Wolverine and the All-New Wolverine – a well-executed Wolverine slice-and-dice story. Like the Wolverine tale, Generations: The Unworthy Thor & The Mighty Thor #1 is merely a Thor fight comic book featuring two Thors. It is pointless. If writer Jason Aaron wanted to emphasize that two beings want possession of Mjolnir and want to be THE Thor, well, he is already doing that in the current Thor comic book.
With Generations, Marvel Comics runs the risk of publishing several issues of an event comic book that read like nothing more than, at behest, mediocre, “Annuals,” published for the sake of being published, or, at worst, filler material. Once upon a time, there were a lot of comic book writers who could pull off an exemplary stand-alone tale in 30 pages. Alan Moore springs to mind, but many of the top comics scribes of the 1960s and 1970s could have delivered something better than what Aaron delivers in Generations: The Unworthy Thor & The Mighty Thor #1.
Now, I must say that the art here is beautiful. It is the best work by Mahmud Asrar that I have ever seen. He is a rapidly growing talent, and here, he gives the hackwork story TLC that it does not deserve. Jordie Bellaire does a stellar coloring job on Asrar's compositions. Leave it to Jordie; she'll color the shittiness right of a mediocre comic book, and she just about does that here. Asrar and Bellaire are the reasons I am not giving Generations: The Unworthy Thor & The Mighty Thor #1 a really low grade.

Review: THE GODDAMNED #1
THE GODDAMNED No. 1
IMAGE COMICS – @ImageComics
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
STORY: Jason Aaron
ART: r.m. Guéra
COLORS: Giulia Brusco
COVER: r.m. Guéra
VARIANT COVER: Jock
36pp, Color, $3.99 U.S. (November 2015)
Rated M / Mature
Before the Flood: Part One “The Mark of Cain”
The Goddamned is a new comic book series from writer Jason Aaron and artist r.m. Guéra. It is set 1600 years after God expelled Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden.
The Goddamned #1 (Before the Flood: Part One “The Mark of Cain”) opens somewhere on the edge of an unnamed desert. A man who is supposed to be dead awakens in pond in which excrement, urine, and dead animals have replaced water. Naked and driven by vengeance, the man intends on paying a visit to the “Bone Boys,” the men that cut his throat and took his belongs. The Bones Boys are about to discover that this mystery man cannot be killed.
Jason Aaron and r.m. Guéra were the creative team behind the critically-acclaimed, crime and Western comic book series, Scalped (published by DC Comics/Vertigo), which I have never read. After reading this first issue of The Goddamned, I'd like to give Scalped a try.
Honestly, I am not sure where this comic book, The Goddamned, is going. With many comic books, I have a pretty good idea about the direction of the series, in terms of tone, if not also in terms of the narrative. Since I am curious (for the time being), I will seek out at least the next two issues (if they don't sell out) of The Goddamned, although it mystifies me.
Now, although I am clueless (for the most part), I will still recommend that readers try The Goddamned, especially if they have read other work by Jason Aaron. This is such a unique reading experience, with a bold and brazen interpretation of pre-Flood, Biblical times, that it is hard to look away from it. I actually reread portions a few time after my first read.
Another reason to try this comic books is r.m. Guéra because he does some interesting things, illustratively and graphically, that make this comic book worth examining. So god-damn-it, someone better save me a copy of issue #2

Review: DOCTOR STRANGE #1
DOCTOR STRANGE (2015) No. 1
MARVEL COMICS – @Marvel
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
WRITER: Jason Aaron
PENCILS: Chris Bachalo
INKS: Tim Townsend, Al Vey, and Mark Irwin
COLORS: Chris Bachalo
LETTERS: VC's Cory Petit
COVER: Chris Bachalo and Tim Townsend
VARIANT COVERS: Neal Adams; John Tyler Christopher; Juan Doe; Eric Henderson; Dave Johnson; Kevin Nowlan; Jakub Rebelka; Skottie Young; Allen Lee Hansard with Mary Cahela and Judy Stephens
36pp, Color, $4.99 U.S. (December 2015)
Rated T+
Doctor Strange created by Steve Ditko
“The Way of the Weird”
Doctor Strange is a Marvel Comics superhero character. Doctor Strange first appeared in Strange Tales #110 (cover dated: July 1963) and was created by artist Steve Ditko, although Marvel Comics also recognizes Stan Lee as the character's co-creator.
Doctor Stephen Vincent Strange is a brilliant, but egotistical neurosurgeon who only cares about using his career and talents to become wealthy. A car accident severely damages his hands, ending his ability to perform surgery. His pride causes him to lose everything, but his encounter with the Ancient One changes him. Doctor Strange becomes the “Sorcerer Supreme,” the “Master of the Mystic Arts,” who is the primary protector of Earth against magical and mystical threats from wherever they may come.
As part of the “All-New All-Different Marvel” initiative, Marvel Comics is launching a new Doctor Strange comic book series. The new series is written by Jason Aaron; drawn and colored by Chris Bachalo, with inking by Tim Townsend, Al Vey and Mark Irwin; and lettered by Cory Petit.
Doctor Strange #1 (“The Way of the Weird”) with Strange battling possession in the Netherworld. After a day of battling soul-eaters and a psychic-leech, Strange sees a pattern. Something bad is coming. Plus, Strange meets Doctor Voodoo, Shaman, and the Scarlet Witch.
I am intrigued by some of the elements presented in this new series, but I don't know that this is a title that I would buy every month. If you have ever seen Chris Bachalo's art, and you have because he has been a Marvel Comics stable pony for over a decade, then, this comic book will look familiar to you. Maybe some of it looks like Bachalo's work on Neil Gaiman's Death comic book miniseries. Anyway, I can't recommend this, not because it is bad, but because I don't see myself being a regular reader of this new Doctor Strange. So why should I suggest that you be?
Now, there is also a five-age epilogue written by Aaron and drawn by the great Kevin Nowlan (who also draws one of this #1 issue's variant covers). For a long time, Nolan has been known as a comic book artist's artist, and Nowlan's five pages are worth every penny of this book's cover price. I will come back to this title if there is more Nowlan.
[This volume includes a bonus story written by Jason Aaron; drawn and colored by Kevin Nowlan; and lettered by VC's Cory Petit.]

Review: STAR WARS #8
STAR WARS (2015) No. 8
MARVEL COMICS – @Marvel
[A version of this review first appeared on Patreon. And visit the "Star Wars Central" review page.]
STORY: Jason Aaron
PENCILS: Stuart Immonen
INKS: Wade von Grawbadger
COLORS: Justin Ponsor
LETTERS: VC's Chris Eliopoulos
COVER: Stuart Immonen and Wade von Grawbadger with Justin Ponsor
28pp, Color, $3.99 U.S. (October 2015)
Rated T
Book II, Part I: “Showdown on the Smugglers' Moon”
I have already reviewed two issues of Marvel Comics' revival of its Star Wars comic book series, which began earlier this year and now includes two other ongoing series and two miniseries (thus far). I reviewed Star Wars issues #1 and #7. I did not expect to review another issue of Star Wars for at least half a year.
However, Star Wars #8 (“Showdown on the Smugglers' Moon”) introduces the new art team of penciler Stuart Immonen and inker Wade von Grawbadger. As a team, they are known for their work on writer Brian Bendis' All-New X-Men and on All-New Captain America, in which Sam Wilson/The Falcon becomes the new Captain America.
When last we left our heroes (Star Wars #6), Princess Leia and Han Solo were traveling together, searching the galaxy for a suitable site for a new base for the Rebel Alliance. They ran afoul of Imperial patrol ships and ended up landing on a remote planet in an uncharted region of the Outer Rim. There, they have an even more shocking encounter when they meet a woman named Sana Solo, who claims to be Han's wife. Sana is thinking about killing Han and selling out Leia, but the Imperials have plans of their own to pursue their quarry rebels.
Meanwhile, Luke Skywalker has just left his home world of Tatooine, where he discovered the secret journal left for him by Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi a.k.a. “Old Ben Kenobi.” However, Luke believes that he needs more information than what he has thus far found in the journal, if he is going to become a true Jedi. So he decides to travel to the former home of the Jedi, but first he makes a stop on Nar Shaddaa, “The Smuggler's Moon.”
I must be honest and admit that I was shocked by the art that Stuart Immonen and Wade von Grawbadger delivered for their debut issue. Combined with Justin Ponsor's gorgeous coloring, this team has delivered stellar work that blends the best of Adam Hughes, Bryan Hitch, and Kevin Nowlan. Both in terms of graphical storytelling and style, Stuart and Wade create a kind of Star Wars comic book art that is classic Star Wars. In addition, their Star Wars also recalls the vivid colors and snappy adventure storytelling of Marvel's 2014 Guardians of the Galaxy film.
Once again, the creators of a Marvel Star Wars comic book title have me chomping at the bit to read the next issue. In the case of Star Wars, I am not ashamed to be a fanboy.
