And the story peaks again (finally). But then again it is Secret Invasion so how could it not.
Another enjoyable collection, this time with Carol having to prove she isn't a Skrull to her colleagues, but there's still some weird stuff going on with Machine Man - it's kind of creepy.
Ms. Marvel is mistaken for a skrull and then beats on some super skrulls in this Secret Invasion crossover. The art is just OK. The story is just OK. Reed is not very good at handling subplots. They come and go at whims.
I have been enjoying Brian Reed's run on this character, but this volume has problems. It reminded me of a DC movie, with a lot of deaths and a hero who not only doesn't mind killing, but seems to relish it. Sad.
Still loving this series!
I think maybe I just really dislike the Secret Invasion storyline as a whole, but very little happened in this. And this volume included my least favorite comicbook cover of all time. I hope fuck boys in comics all have their careers torn to shreds.
3.5 stars
Secret invasion meh. Weird ending that doesn't fit. Lots of fighting which was cool I guess. Machine Man went from awesome in the last volume to weird and creepy in this one. Not my favorite.
What an uneven graphic novel. The first two issues felt like they had almost no connection to the later three. And this is a particularly startling conflict between Carol and the Skrulls in light of her movie that came out last year, where she ended up befriending some. Here there were multiple references to Carol killing Skrulls and calling them "animals" or "rabid animals." ... Huh.This run was never my favorite by any means. I mean, she started out this book deciding to get her act together b...
"In a brilliant flash of light, Carol Danvers was transformed by the alien Knee empire's DNA-altering technology, becoming the magnificent..." Artwork, generic, 2 🌟 Not bad, it tied in with the Secret Invasion main comic neatly and there was a bit of a cliff hanger towards the end, which I hope gets addressed in this Marvel event 2 🌟 Relevance to SI, 2 🌟 So overall for this TPB 2 🌟
I had a really hard time reading all of the previous volumes of this Ms. Marvel. This one was so much more interesting. I love the Skrull, Kree storyline. This one shows that Ms. Marvel can take a beating and still dish it out. she is a total bad ass. The ending of this lead to a further storyline that will be continued in the next volume, that I have that I am really excited to start. The only complaint that I have for this character is the total lack of body knowledge that the artist has to ma...
Ms. Marvel redeemed herself in this volume after the Civil War, she was gonna be replaced by she saved herself by finding it out quickly, then she took on countless Skrulls by herself in the battle at New York City. But the ending was so random, it really ruined this volume.
Just Carol punching shit. Wonder Man nowhere to be seen, he was all over this title in CW...now? Also, why the random ending totally unrelated to SI? Didn't Carol get taken out by Fury in Mighty Avenegrs? Ugh, so badly all over, useless, no info, just punchy mcpunch punch.
Ms. Marvel is a natural match for this event with her Kree powers.In the first half of the book, there's a Skrull replacement for Miss Marvel running around and her own team is set to bring her in. I think this is very well-handled. There's also a really cool bit in the first issue where we get to see Carol Danvers' first meeting with the Skrull done in vintage 1960s style. Things don't go well and she ends the first half of the book in a pathetic state.But then we get into the proper tie-in to
Hoo boy...the 90's didn't go without a fight did they?Despite being published in the late 00's this book reads like 90's trash comics in every way. It's vulgar, it's violent, and the artwork is more concerned with showing off Carol's ass and boobs than it is with anything silly like consistency or quality. These kinds of comics can be fun...see NEXTWAVE for a title that homages the 90's era in a way that isn't garbage...this comic is not. That being said, Carol is within character here if only d...
A fun lightweight affair that knows the bounds of what it has set out to accomplish. The second arc in the volume deals very specifically with an attack on Manhattan, and Carol's intervention. It's energeozed stuff that any reader will speed through, but it lacks the "wowzers" that you hope for in any action-centric arc. The pencils are a mite sloppy in places, but nothing atrocious, and overall, the art complements the writer's words nicely and evenly. Solid stuff and a fun jumping-on point.
It gives a little more background on Carol, and lets you see what she was doing during the Skrull invasion. It was fun, and definitely worth the read.
It had its moments--the first two parts of the Battle for Manhattan were really great, but the third chapter fell flat. And the art felt all over the place. But there is still some interesting development that kind of paves the way for her mindset to become Captain Marvel
Terrible writing, great art, but a nice quick read I ended up liking in the end.
There have been two sightings of Ms. Marvel at the same time. At least one has to be a Skrull.This was really enjoyable. It started by threading pages from old comic books into the new book, which was ok. But then it quickly got on with Ms. Marvel trying to prove she is who she is and dealing with boyfriend and publicist problems.The artwork is very good in this volume. Some of the larger panels and full page works are excellent.Ms. Marvel fights against Skrulls, Ms. Marvel, members of SHIELD an...
