    Read Secret War......

    I don't understand why some people hated it.Sure following it with the single issues would have been a pain,but after reading it for the first time altogether in hardcover,I frigging loved it.

    The concept is pretty original and fresh for a superhero comic.

    Loved it but i also read and bought the HC. It must have been maddening to read the singles.

    I really dug it, but I bought the HC and didn't read it in single issue form. That probably does make a difference.

    Bendis' stuff doesn't read as well in singles issues, but in a trade, this mini kicked ass. The art is great. The story is dark. It's completely original.
    I still want to know about the new Goblin that came out of it.

    make sure to read all the extra stuff at the end.

    it plants a lot of the seeds for Civil War and the Super Hero Registration Act.

    A lot of neat little things were in Fury's files at the end of each ish. Didn't enjoy the one-shot "From the Secret Files of Nick Fury" though. Wasn't as good.

    Quite maddening to read in single form. I really should go back and read the whole thing again. It's almost guaranteed to be quite better.

    The only way it was "maddening" to read it in single form is if that was the ONLY book you were reading.


    And I highly doubt that.


    The lateness didn't bother me at all. It came out when it came out, I loved it when it did. Barely missed it when it didn't. I have a good memory, so I always remembered what happened the issue before.


    Didn't bother me at all.

    I have single issues of the entire thing rather than the trade but loved it, granted I might as well have got the trade as I got every issue together at once the day the last ish came out.
