Venom #4 – Review

by Rick Remender (writer), Tony Moore (pencils), Danny Miki (inks), John Rauch (colors), and Joe Caramagna (letters) The Story: It’s Venom vs. Spider-Man in the race to save Betty Brant. What’s Good: Hurray, Tony Moore is back.  Tom Fowler is a solid enough artist, but there really isn’t any replacing Moore’s likable, characterful, and slightly [...]

By: Greg Pak (writer), Paul Pelletier (penciller), Danny Miki (inker), Morry Hollowell with Jesús Aburtou (colorists), Jake Thomas (assistant editor), Mark Paniccia (editor) The Story: Heart of the Monster, Part Two: OK.

Amazing Spider-Man #641 – Review

By: Joe Quesada (writer), Paolo Rivera, Quesada, Danny Miki & Richard Isanove (art) & Joe Caramanga (letters) The Story: One Moment In Time lurches toward the finish line.  Will the ending make any sense?  Will Dan Slott punch his boss in the face for messing up this series’ momentum? What’s Good: I’m going to go [...]

Ultimatum # 5 – Review

By Jeph Loeb (writer), David Finch (pencils) Danny Miki (inks), Peter Steigerwald (colors) The Story: The last chapter in the Ultimatum saga concludes with the deconstruction, rather than destruction,  of the entire Marvel Ultimate Universe. Magneto faces off against Wolverine and the rest of the heroes as they confront him for the untold mass destruction [...]

Ultimatum #4 – Review

By Jeph Loeb (writer), David Finch (pencils), Danny Miki (inks), Peter Steigerweld (colors) Usually it is an ominous sign here at WCBR when we forgo our standard format when writing a review; and in the case of Ultimatium #4, this warning is well warranted. Before I tear into this dreadful piece of literature; this horrendous and hideous production, [...]

Mighty Avengers #23 – Review

By Dan Slott (writer), Khoi Pham (artist), Allen Martinez and Danny Miki (inkers) Even as I grew to despise Bendis’s writing over the years, I was always willing to give him a chance when it came to The Avengers because they have long been a favorite team of mine since childhood.  From Avengers, New Avengers, [...]

Ultimatum #1 – Review

By Jeph Loeb (Writer), David Finch (Artist), Danny Miki (Inker), and Steve Firchow (Colors) What’s Going On: Think “The Day After Tomorrow” with super-heroes. We get one page each of the Fantastic Four, the Ultimates, Spider-Man, and the X-Men hanging around before a gigantic tidal wave swamps New York. This is the terrible event presaged [...]

Mighty Avengers #19 (Secret Invasion) – Review

By Brian Michael Bendis (story), Khoi Pham (pencils), Danny Miki and Allen Martinez (inks), Dean White and Paul Mounts (colors) The Story: The Skrulls have a bunch of sleeper agents on Earth just waiting for the right time to be awoken.

Ultimate X-Men/Fantastic Four Annual #1 – Review

By Aron E Coleite and Joe Pokaski (Writers), Dan Panosian and Mark Brook (Pencilers), Danny Miki and Troy Hubbs (Inkers), and John Rauch and Antonio Fabela (Colorists) While I enjoy the occasional “Ultimate” comic, I’ve never been a huge fan of that universe.  I don’t plan on “converting” any time soon, but this issue sure [...]

Mighty Avengers #17 – Capsule Review

By Brian Michael Bendis (Writer), Khoi Pham (Pencils), Danny Miki and Andy Lanning (Inks), and Dean White (Colorist) Can I get a refund? No, seriously? Because this is not only one of the weakest Secret Invasion tie-ins I’ve read, but it is one of the weakest issues I have ever read, period! Skrull-Pym tries to [...]

New Avengers #43 (Secret Invasion) – Review

By Brian Bendis (writer), Billy Tan (pencils), Danny Miki (inks), Jason Keith (colors) Sadly, this is a pretty boring issue which sucks because I had fun with the last part of this story. You know, the one where Ka-Zar and Shanna got mixed up in this whole Secret Invasion mess in the Savage Land? It [...]

Mighty Avengers #16 (Secret Invasion) – Review

By Brian Michael Bendis (Writer), Khoi Pham (Pencils), and Danny Miki (Inks), Dean White (Colors) Last night my wife asked me why I was buying so many comics lately.

By J. Michael Straczynski (Writer), Olivier Coipel (Pencils), Mark Morales, Danny Miki, and John Dell (Inks), and Laura Martin (Colors) On sale 5/29/08 Anyone who needs convincing that Thor is one of Marvel’s most entertaining series needs to pick up this issue. Here J. Michael Straczynski delivers a story mostly about the supporting cast, but [...]

Mighty Avengers #14 (Secret Invasion) – Review

By Brian Michael Bendis (writer), Khoi Pham (pencils), Danny Miki (inks), Dean White (colors) I understand that Marvel loves to have characters with flaws, but this is ridiculous. The Sentry is the lamest super hero on the Avengers roster, and Brian Bendis, refusing to kill him, finally gives us a legitimate reason as to why [...]

Mighty Avengers #11 – Review

By Brian Michael Bendis (writer), Mark Bagley (pencils) Danny Miki & Allen Martinez (inks), Marko Djurdjevic (art), Justin Ponsor (colors) Mighty Avengers #11 brings the current story arc to a satisfying, yet rushed ending.

Thor #7 – Review

By J. Michael Straczynski (writer), Marko Djurdjevic (pencils), Danny Miki (inks), Jelena Kevic Djurdjevic (colors) Years from now, I wonder if I’ll look back on Thor #7 with the same awe I have for it now. This issue not only serves as the sequential debut of Marko Djurdjevic as a Marvel artist, but it also [...]
