Yah, USM was good this week. No clues about the hooded character yet! Well, other than that they're young, but no idea on gender. I'm still thinking maybe Kitty somehow!

I read the Galactus story, but I barely remember it, so...I'd say it wasn't very memorable! UXM was a good comic until around when Kirkman got on it, then it just meandered. Plus, he pretty much retconned away everything at the end of his run! So you could just skip his stuff and miss nothing.

I'm loving this book. Bendis is truly the master of real life dialogue. His handle on Peter's teenage drama filled life is awesome. The love triangle with Pete, MJ, and Gwen gets more and more interesting each issue. And then throw Johnny in the mix...I have a feeling he might get involved in this triangle somehow, maybe straining his and Pete's friendship. Plus, the reimagination of Mysterio has been great, that scene with the Hulk illusion was badass. Oh and I'm really enjoying the art. It perfectly suits the book, and its so crisp and clean. The facial expressions, the movement, the fight scenes are all on point.

I'm a bit late on reading this as it didn't arrive at the comic shop the week it was due. Anyway I pretty much enjoyed it also and some of my reservations about the way Ellis (not Garth Ennis!) was writing Stark were allayed with this issue. I think he just writes Stark with a good sense of humour - he's always ready with a quip.LOOSECANNON wrote:Ultimate Comics Armor Wars #2
Garth Ennis may disappoint on Astonishing but his Thunderbolt-led voice comes through here. Justine Hammer may have been the weak link in the debut, but her character improves greatly as Tony's sidekick. While Fraction is going down as an all-time Iron Man fav, I can't help but love Warren Ellis' take--especially with the obnoxious boozing--on the man inside the machine. This book did a great job using something stupid (Ultimatum) and turning into a fine story. The espionage flare of the plot, the mysterious take on other metallic combatants, and the chemistry between Tony and his cohorts makes this one to squeeze. It's a surprise this year, for sure, and will no doubtly play 3rd wheel behind Avengers & Spidey in the Ultimate U, but don't sleep on this title because this mini looks to be another wonderful edition to Ellis' resume.

QFT.

More of the same from Bendis, the consistently entertaining drama of Peter Parker's life. The dialogue is spot on and hilarious as usual. I love this idea of turning Aunt May's house into a homeless shelter for super-teens lol. First Gwen Stacy, now Johnny Storm and Bobby Drake! I wouldn't be surprised if Kitty moves in at some point.

I really enjoyed this. I love that Iceman, Human Torch, and Kitty are all regular supporting characters. It's awesome. I hope they stay for a long time.
