I spend a lot of time and money buying and reading comics. Most of the time I'm happy with my choices, sometimes not. I'm hoping,that with my reviews on what I've read, I might spare someone else dissapointment. I'll read anything, but I can't afford everything. If there's something you'd like for me to read, let me know. If you take the time to read this, please, take the time to let me know what you think. I may not agree with you, or you may not agree with me. But, so what. That's life.

Ultimate Spider-man #122 - Marvel
What a fantastic book. Brian Bendis must have a special love for this book, because it seems like he turns in the best stories for this one. Also Stuart Immonen is really giving this book a great feel. Yeah it's not the same as Mark Bagley, but . . you know what? Who cares. I'll give Mark all the props in the world. He's a very talented guy. But . . Stuart is no slouch. So just admit it. The books different . . but . . you like it just as much. Go ahead. You can say it. Nobodies gonna' strike you down. This issue is about a villain that Peter's run in to many times . . the Shocker. He's never really been much of a threat, but . . this time he's amped up his blasters, and he catches Spidey with his guard down. Spidey sees him in the middle of a bank robbery, but after he takes down Spidey he decides to change his agenda. He decides to take Spidey back to his lair . . . and he's going to torture him a little bit. Actually . . quite a bit. But, eventually, MJ and Kitty come to his rescue. MJ and Kitty? Yeah, MJ's there when Peter gets taken and she has no idea what to do. So . . she goes to Kitty. And Kitty . . goes to the police. Well . . a Sergeant that Wolverine vouches for. He says that he can handle things quietly. Next thing you know, they're all breaking in to Shocker's warehouse and rescuing Pete. I'm not sure how he does it, but Brian really puts a lot of emotion in to this series. You really get sucked in with these characters. That's why it's one of my favorites.
