...........and, unfortunately, there's really not a lot to say. :-/

BP: Hudlin clearly peaked with 9-18. His CIVIL WAR issues only prepare McDuffie. And the Marvel Zombie stuff is.....well, useless and entertaining only in a gross way. I also see that NO continuity is needed ANYWHERE anymore, not even from, say, 2003 or so; when Falcon and Panther talked about upgrading Falcon's wings, I GROANED. *gah* Didn't ANYBODY read CAF but me? LOL!

FF: Better, more entertaining, but very surface-level. I agree with Jer: Panther does act more like Priest's character here than in his own book. I got real bored seeing Sue captured for the 400th time (although it was fun to read her retorts, because it seems that SHE's even tired of the cliche), but the Klaw previous pages were fun to read. And the art is GREAT.

I just purchased the trades from the advance orderer Westfield. It's clear that I REALLY LOVE this character. *SIGH* :-/
