A fairly average ending.
Basically this one involves Shang-Chi, taking down fake Nick Fury team, and then dealing with Steel and his past. Honestly I finished and kind of forgot the plot right away lol, the fights are pretty fun though.

Ninja-K, Vol. 1: The Ninja Files
Christos Gage, Ariel Olivetti, Roberto de la Torre, Juan José Ryp, Tomás Giorello, Trevor Hairsine
A pretty cool Ninja story but nothing amazing.
Colin King is back and this time he's beginning to learn alot more about MI-6. Yeah, his little government protect secrets, take out the baddies, isn't as good as he once thought. Through the next few issues he meets a few older agents who give him the complete scoop on what's happening and he must decide what to do next.
It's fairly simple spy story. The big bad organization is the one working for the whole time. but some ninja's go too far to take them down. It's not bad, it's pretty fun, and some cool action scenes, but it failed to give me any type of rush or excitement that I wanted from a story about a Ninja as a fucking spy.
A 3 out of 5.

Berserk heats up to getting to the climax of the second major arc but man does it have some bloody good times before getting there.
Guts agreed with the Band of Hawks to rescue Griffith. So the first part of this book is actually them heading down the dark and gloomy castle to save their friend. This actually has some really funny moments with Casca and Guts that made me smile or laugh out loud. It helps lighten up the mood and keep it fresh. Which is good because...
We get into the cellar of the castle and Griffith is tortured to hell. Nails ripped off, flesh cut so he can't walk anymore or hold a sword. Basically a bag of bones and little meat. This sends Guts into a berserk rage as he tells them to grab him and starts to slaughter everyone in his way up the castle, leading to some epic as fuck fights.
We then get to Wyald crazy ass. If you've only seen the anime, this guy is new to you. Sick as fuck, this gigantic monkey type creature goes around raping woman and murdering people like it is nothing. He is sent after Guts and his band which results in a bloody but excellent fight.
Then the Eclipse event begins, everything Guts thought he knew about his best friend is washed away, leading to a horror show that just begins at the very end of this volume.
Overall, this is horrifying, scary, sad, and amazing all in one. One of the best arcs of Berserk really gets to shine here and Miura handles grief and loss so well.

A really boring start.
Robin has to lose family members because of course...then he gets his own storyline but it's kind of boring? Some cool moments with Shiva can't save this one for me. I was completely bored reading most of it. A 2 out of 5 at best.

Cass is on a mission to find her mother.
But we can already guess who Cass mother is. What we didn't know is how psycho she can truly be. This has some great moments for Cass, growing up, and learning what her mother is capable of. I will say it was a little rushed, the brother storyline was odd, and I didn't love all of Cass's inner thoughts. I still feel too much. But overall it was a solid ending to a great series.

Can't say this was bad. The art is solid, there's some funny moments, and Aaron has a good voice for both but this one did bore me most of the time.
So somehow, explained later, Spider-man and Wolverine get lost in time. That's right guys, back to the stone age. Imagine just these two bickering at each other until the asteroid hits and ends dinosaurs, but of course through time traveling hi-jinx we get set back in modern time with a few twist.
This is mostly goofy. There's some good moments here or there, and some cool fight moments, but overall I was pretty bored a lot of it. A 2-2.5 tops.

Super cool art style idea, really fun wolverine story, easy and fun read. Wolverine going in deep to mess up some baddies is a cool idea.
A dark turn for Logan after the more goofy adventure with SPidy.
So Logan is trapped in hell. This demon that took hold of his body is going around murdering people close to him to get revenge for people who HATE Logan but we don't know for which reasons yet. This leads Logan to basically have to fight through hell to get out while his Girlfriend is out in the real world trying to free his soul.
While I didn't find this volume mindblowingly awesome it was a step in the right direction after the last arc. Some cool moments, and great shots of vicious brutal battles in hell mixed with getting to see Logan's friends help him. The ending also set up some cool things for the next volume.
Least we're getting somewhere interesting now. A 3 out of 5.

A solid follow-up to the last volume.
This time Logan has to take on the X-Men. This works well this time as they have a plan to kill one of the most dangerous mutants on the face of this earth. After losing his mind to a demon and still fighting for his mind, Cyclops unleashes all hell on the mutant, but it is actually his friends Kitty, Jublie, and more who decide to help get through him in his mind. But Logan's mind is a bit scary to travel through.
This was a fun one. I really enjoyed the moments when the girls went into Logan's mind. It's filled with some real terrifying moments but also some funny shit like Logan's crazy sex fantasies. I also really enjoyed how Cyclops had a plan to kill Logan but also waited till the very last second to attack his friend. All that worked well.
This heated up in a badass fight. I can't wait to see how this one goes next volume. A 4 out of 5.
