Customer Reviews

Just like the old MTU, with better artwork

This glitzy team-up series is a worthy successor to the original 1970s version... It has a lot of the same elements -- quick action, somewhat thin plots, supervillans you don't really care that much about but look forward to seeing defeated (Titannus, the mutant kid named Paul) and lots and lots of Marvel superdudes, with Spiderman as the focal point. So far so good. The artwork by Scott Kolins is nice -- realistic, but not filled with fetishistic, super-exaggerated body-builder muscles... The introduction of an evil, alternate-reality Iron Man is fun... he's the bad guy that gives this book its bite. In short, this isn't a like a great work of art or anything, but it was a fun read. I kinda wish I hadn't spent the money on it, but I enjoyed reading it... Above-average wham-bam superhero stuff.
