Review: The Movement #1

I really enjoyed this first issue.

I don't usually try brand new series as it can be a bit of a risk investing in characters that are either new or you don't know anything about, but I'm glad I took that risk with this series as it was one of my favourite comics to come out this week, and it was very satisfying.

You'll probably know writer Gail Simone from her current run on Batgirl. I'm a big fan of her work and that was one of the main reasons for giving this book a try, she does a fantastic job establishing the characters and manages to explain the overall feel of the series quite early in the issue.

Freddie Williams' art is brilliant in this issue, I wasn't a big fan of his art when I first saw it but it's definitely grown on me and he does amazingly in this issue, really helps to establish the general tone of the story.

I'll be honest, when I first heard the idea of a book on the politics of the DC Universe I wasn't extremely keen because it's not a topic I'm particularly interested in. But what I thought of as Politics was Buisnessmen and Politicians and this definitely isn't that.

Overall, a great read! If you buy any new comic series, make it the Movement! I can't wait for some more of this book!

Rating: 10/10

Review: Age of Ultron #7

Spoilers below!

I feel like this issue was a little bit dissapointing, this series seems to be abandoning storylines randomly. For example, the group of heroes who travelled to the future to stop Ultron? That never happened because Ultron was apparently now never created.

I was interested in seeing the usual heroes of the Marvel universe in this series but Bendis had created a new timeline and completely changed most of the heroes, which makes it very hard to feel invested in any characters or their situations because you can never be sure if they'll even exist in the next issue.

It doesn't explain what happened to the heroes who didn't travel to either the future or the past and you can be pretty sure that storyline won't be carried on.

I was enjoying the series before but I feel like it's being stretched too far and that they could've finished the story by now, and the time travelling plots and different timelines are definitely over complicating the story.

I do, however, really enjoy the art in this issue by Brandon Peterson and Carlos Pacheco. That, unfortunately, is all that I really enjoyed about this issue.

Hopefully this series will be back to it's regular standard in the next few issues.

Rating: 4/10

Review: Superior Spider-Man #9

Well, a lot of people are going to be upset with Dan Slott today. I'm not one of them, however, and I loved this issue.

I've loved every issue of Superior Spider-Man from the beggining and have loved Slott's whole run, and I've not been one of the "You ruined my childhood!" people.

Superior Spider-Man #9

Now that I'm done with that, let's get onto the full review!

The writing in the issue is very clever, as it always is with this series. It's an interesting plot and it had me hooked from the first page. Slott really writes these characters well, and comes up with some of the most unexpected twists in comics. I'm not going to spoil the story, you should definitely read it for yourself, but, obviously, people have already spoiled it.

I absoloutely love Ryan Stegman's art, I always think it's a shame with the rotating art team whenever he takes a break from the book. I do like Guissepe Cammuncoli and Humberto Ramos' art a lot, but I feel like Stegman's is a perfect fit for the book. Put together with the colours from Edgar Delgado, the art really adds to the book.

And because letterers never get any recognition in comic books, Chris Eliopoulos did a great job on the issue!

Altgether, another great issue in the series! Unexpected ending and a brilliant story, 10/10!

Comics Catch-up: Superior Spider-Man (What you need to know)

Welcome to Comics Catch-up! This feature helps to get you up to speed on some of the biggest books coming to the shelves. This week I'll be getting you ready for Superior Spider-Man #9!

Superior Spider-Man #9

As you've probably heard, Doctor Octopus is Spider-Man.

A few months ago Doctor Octopus swapped minds with the original Spider-Man, Peter Parker. Otto was placed into the body of Spider-Man and Peter into the dying body of his greatest enemy. Pete had only a few hours to live and had to move fast to defeat Ock. He escaped from Otto's prison cell and into one of his secret hideouts. He broke into Avengers tower with one of Ock's gold Octobots, which the villain used to complete the brain swap.

A final fight between Ock and Spidey took place, Parker tried to use the Octobot to get back into his body but failed. Ock was about to win, but Pete did all he could, he forced his memories into Octavius' brain and made him learn that with Great Power comes Great Responsibility. This supposedly turned Ock into a "hero". And with the Superior Spider-Man you should take the word "hero" very lightly.

Ock as Spider-Man

Although Peter Parker supposedly died in Ock's body, there was still hope for him, he was left as a "ghost" following Ock through his life, able to affect some of the former villain's actions. But he couldn't be heard or seen by anybody.

Since he became Spider-Man, Otto has brutalized most of the villains he's battled and killed Massacre, a man
who's killed hundreds.

Recently, Otto's been able to hear Peter's voice and has, obviously, been getting suspicious, And he's not the only one. The Avengers battled him and did a full brain scan on him to check what had suddenley happened to their team-mate. Ock thought he'd been found out andthis was game over for him, but to his suprise they didn't find anything wrong with him.



Otto kills Massacre

Looking over his brain patterns, Ock found an anomaly. This anomaly went by the name of Peter Parker. It was Pete who'd been found out, and Doc's preparing to get rid of him once and for all using the invention that allowed Ock to control his robotic arms
.

Get ready for a major story that's apparently going to make you angrier than when you read Amazing Spider-Man #700!

Superior Spider-Man #9 hits the shelves on May 1st, written by Dan Slot and with pencils and inks by Ryan Stegman. Also with colours by Edgar Delgado.

X-Men: Battle of the Atom announced at C2E2, scheduled for September.

Today is Marvel's X-Men panel at C2E2, they've got lots of announcements including Wolverine becoming killable and the cancellation  of the long running X-Factor series, but there's one that seems quite big. Battle of the Atom!

This is a ten part crossover in the X-books that takes place within two months, beginning in X-Men: Battle of the Atom #1 and running through the other X-Men books between September and October.

The storyline involves three teams of X-Men, the originals, the Uncanny and a team from the future led by Kitty Pride including Kate Bishop and Deadpool, supposedly, having a battle.

I've never been a major X-Men fan but I've been getting into the All-New X-Men series and this news seems pretty exciting.

Battle of the Atom will be written by Brian Michael Bendis, Jason Aaron and Brian Wood.

Wolverine: Killable announced at C2E2.

Today at Marvel's X-Men panel at C2E2 a new arc in "Wolverine" called Killable. Written by Paul Cornell with art by Alan Davis the story starts in issue 7 of the series and will apparently take on a Western feel, with Sabertooth finding out and gathering super-villains to "kill the little runt". Sounds fun, not for Logan, I guess.

According to Marvel the conclusion will be a "major media moment" and will possibly echo a plotline in the new Wolverine movie.

Fans are already going out and saying that he's definitely going to die. This was actually a rumour that Bleeding Cool ran a while ago, and it seems they could be right.

Other announcements from the panel included Battle of the atom, starting in September and the cancelation of X-factor.
