Saw this. It was solidly made. Good acting, especially on the part of the wives played by Maria Bello and Maggie Gyllenhal. The technical aspect was well done. It looked real. And it was completely apolitical, focusing simply on this story of survival. And that end up being the...

I finally finished this serie and it is the greatest saga I have ever read. I can't recommand this enough. Lucifer is a 75 issues series by Mike Carey. It takes it root in the character introduced by Gaiman in The Sandman #4. That issue was... mediocre. It's not really useful except...

It starts with Xavier chatting with the two-headed guy. Quite chummy. He did what he needed to unfreeze Charle's assets and his sister's operation has been paid for. Much love going around. Then Xavier gets a call for Mrs Pryde. She's worried about Kitty. She knows she has a new...

So the Zombies break out. They make up a balooney story about how they crafted a teleportation device with a pen, hair and chemicals in the food, Reed click his pen and they disappear. The soldier panick and rush in the cell... and The FF reappear to tear them apart. Sue had just made them...

Yeah, yeah, no big deal. But I only play small stakes so far and this is by far my biggest win. I'm quite happy with myself. Finished 6th of 1822 in a 3$ +rebuy tournament. As usual, I just bought, rebought immediately to double my stack. If I'm eliminated in the first hour (re-buy...

Woohoo. I barely watch any soccer for 3 years and 11 months but every time the World cup comes around, I become a fan again. As a Kid, in 1990, I was in Europe with my parents. I caught the fever. This is the greatest sport tournament in the world. Nothing can compare! Germany won in...

Ben and Alicia are on a date and Johnny is along with a certain Tara Beckwith. Apparenlty it was arranged by Alicia. Johnny is underwhelmed. Ben seems very much in love with Alicia. Blind or not, I don't see how'll they ever have sex. Anyway. Suddenly a car almost crash to their table...

We start with a flashback. It's essentially Mark Bagley drawing the sequence where Spider-Man encounter Blade and a Vampire from that USM special way back. Then we have a Kitty/Peter phone conversation. Kitty is angry because Xavier grounded them and because she and Spider-Man are now the...

Well, apparently no thread for this. Saw it with my sisters. Not bad. Certainly not great but good entertainment with some intellectual pretension. It follows the book pretty closely and I suspect that if you didn't read the book some plot point may appear a little confusing, vague or...

Where do you go to get good comic reviews? Especially reviews of Ultimate Titles?

Teenage sex! What are the people of good morals going to think!? Xavier and Lilandra Xavier lock her down and put the rest of the restaurant in loop so he can grill her about the Phoenix. Turns out the Hellfire Club was a splinter of the Shiar who wanted to control the Phoenix. The...

Starts with the fight between Cap, Sam and what turns out not to be Silver Surfer after all. Let's call him Silver Future for the moment. Cap hit him hard with his Shield, Sam fires at him with a SMG in each hand (After seeing Hawkeye killing people with fingernail, such a mundane feat is...

Ok, so this might easily become the best Ultimate Mini ever. Basically, this issue is a flash back showing us what happened to bruce after he survived his execution up to the point where Wolverine confront him (last panel of issue 1). So this is not very straight forward storytelling...

First the X-Men get on Fury's black list. Then Xavier decides he doesn't trust Emma Frost so much and send a spy over there, an act that could put a deep wedge between the two organizations if ever uncovered. Thankfully there are no telepaths at this point at Emma's... Finally, in their...

Well, Spider-Man kicks the crap out of Omega Red. Turns out Red had been hired by someone to attack Roxxon. (Yay!) Aparently, it's the second time Spider-Man stops a super from attacking Roxxon's interest. Mr Roxxon concludes that spider-man is doing it on purpose and knows who is being...

Kirkman said he planned on bringing one, and only one, character from 616 into the UU. So who will be the chosen one? I'm pretty uneducated toward 616 and about the only mutant I know that hasn't already appeared is Jubilee... But I'm getting a feeling the new 616 arrival might be a villain.

Re-reading UFF1 and in light of the Mary Storm plot thread going on in the current arc, I can't help but wonder why authors haven't haven't touched on Reed's family in over 20 issues. Yeah, the military wants to keep the lid on them but that doesn't seem to prevent them from leaving to...
