Ultimate Enemy #1
January 27th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza
Marvel's solicits threaten us with the revelation of the "face of true evil in the Ultimate Universe," but we never see the face in this issue. We do, however, see some great Rafa Sandoval art.

Lafuente draws a Spider-Man who is a blur of motion, and that feels exactly right.
Ultimate Comics Avengers #3

Dark Reign: The List - Daredevil #1
September 15th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
Norman Osborn's hit list targets Daredevil and gives the original Bullseye a chance to reunite with his old foe. Of course, what "Daredevil" comic would be complete without an appearance by the Kingpin and more than a few ninjas?

Uncanny X-Men #513
July 7th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie
While carrying the torch of Big Crossover status, this storyline still feels like a personal but large scale classic X-Men adventure.

Rising Stars Compendium
May 24th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

Uncanny X-Men #508
April 17th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
While plots gain little traction, Matt Fraction’s characterization skills more than make up for that. Greg Land’s art is the same as it always is, so it’s a ‘love it or hate it’ situation there.
New Avengers #51
March 25th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
The Avengers settle some team business while Dr. Strange approaches Wiccan with the offer of a lifetime. Plus, Chris Bachalo joins Billy Tan on art.
Uncanny X-Men #507

March 13th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

January 9th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie

The New Avengers assemble once again -- but who’ll make the team? By Bendis and Tan
Uncanny X-Men #505
