Eh, it's all right. Nothin' too spectacular.
I picked this up solely due to the fact that Wiccan is one of my all-time favorite characters and I ended up loving it for everyone. The plot is a little confusing and not-well thought out (I'm still not sure why it was these characters specifically who ended up on the team together), but the dialogue and character interaction made up for it. I found this book to be genuinely funny and engaging, from the Winter Soldier and Spectrum playing table football to Wiccan and Daimon Helstrom's bits abo
I don't even know what to think. Wasn't bad, had some funny moments, I didn't quite understand who the villains were (there's a rolling cast) and definitely didn't know what they wanted (besides a new place to live, how's that bad?), and what a truly, truly odd ensemble cast. Who is this lady from Asgard and how is she not Hela? I've read enough Marvel comics that I could understand the basic premise but anyone new to the genre, good luck! I spent most of the book wondering what the new plot poi...
I really, really enjoyed this! This comic was a blast to read!I remember Howard's work on a Cap story a while back and I really liked their style then. This book is no exception! People think it's easy to write a team book, but it's really not. I think what makes a great team book is putting together a good combination of powers that complement each other - as well as personalities that interact in an interesting way. Quite often, team books are just powers and plot, no real personality or inter...
Strikeforce is hectic and hard to follow, but it's pleasantly fun in equal measures. A gang of C-list heroes are teleported to a crime scene and accused of heisting deadly pathogens. To clear their name, they're going to need to team up to catch the real villains!Or at least, that's the plan, which quickly goes off the rails. After several issues spent battling shape-shifting elves (for unclear reasons), the team abruptly shifts gears to fight...ghosts? Perhaps the second volume will clear up th...
I feel like lately Marvel has been doing a lot of these books where they take minor characters with absolutely no connection and make them into a team just so the characters are in use. Most of them are very bad. This one actually wasn't! Not too bad and I'll keep reading through the next volume, at least.
I decided to read this because it has some heroes that I like in the team line-up. It was just okay and weird. The story felt random and that it could of been done with any set of team. The story isn't even that great. I'll probably read on to finish the series, since there is only one more volume but I think this one could be skip. It could be read if you like bizarre stories about body swapping. It's always possible I'll change my mind about the overall story after reading volume 2, but I have...
This book is pleasing, but baffling.The title of the book is new. There have been no previous incarnations of "Strikeforce" I am aware of, based on my 27 years of reading Marvel comics. Yet the tone of this title feels older. A ragtag team of superheroes with little connection between each other are thrown together, and with minimal bickering on the subject, all agree that they should fight bad guys and protect the innocent. It's refreshing. A blast from the past.That being said, I could see whe...
I really enjoyed this one. Tini Howard has put together a nice team here (with the exception of Angela... lord, how I wish Marvel wouldn't keep shoving this character into everything) and the plot is fast-paced with high stakes, with nice art and even a little humour (which I think is always good in a horror book). I'm really looking forward to seeing where this is going.Also, I'll take all the Spider-Woman I can get.
This started out really strong, but it quickly derailed into a plot that was extremely hard to follow. I couldn’t tell you what was happening in the final issue; but I’m sure it’ll read smoother back to back than month to month. I feel like this book really relies on the reader already knowing and caring about the core cast too, because it does nothing to make the reader invested in them here. I only picked this book up because I love the Wiccan character and was excited to see him on a team ros...
I was really impressed with the early issues. I especially enjoyed the character interactions. The is a motley crew for sure, so their different personalities anf group dynsmiv in trying to solve this mystery was what I liked the most about the series. By far. That seemed to gradually die. By the 4th issue, I was pretty bored with. And I read the 5th out of obligation. I won't be continuing the series.
wait the strikeforce is the serve of all serves for a group
A bunch of disparate Marvel characters band together after some Asgardian shapeshifters replaced them and then framed them for stealing viruses. So they hit the road to track down the shapeshifters. The story is REALLY muddled. It's never clear what the end goal of the changelings or Strikeforce is. Tini Howard continues to write comics that underwhelm.
WOW! This comic was amazing I-I need the next volume 🤧
In the fallout from War Of The Realms, Blade finds himself forced to work with Angela, Spectrum, Spider-Woman, the Winter Soldier, and Wiccan to defeat a shapeshifting fairy invasion, which would be bad enough, but the Hellstrom siblings are in their way as well!I didn't have particularly high expectations for this one, but they were definitely exceeded. The combination of characters works, despite the fact that they really shouldn't, and the reason for them working together and not involving an...
I found this book really hard to follow. It feels as if at every other turn it takes a new direction and forgets what it was about. That lack of consistency is something that finally drove me off the series. I won’t stay longer even if the story (whatever it was), is definitely far from over.Wiccan is the one character I was interested in, and Spider-Woman is also appealing to me; I wasn’t really rooting for the rest but wanted to get to know them better. Well, the book did very little to build
Exceeded my expectations. I was originally here 80% for Billy, 20% for Jessica, 0% for literally anything or anyone else in the book. To my surprise, a team with the two of them, Blade, Spectrum, Bucky, Angela, and Daimon Hellstrom works shockingly well. And it's kind of refreshing to have a spooky, creepy stuff fighter squad, especially since it didn't plaster Avengers on the cover. The story takes a serious curve in the last issue, and I'm not sure yet if I like it, but I was really enjoying t...
Uhhhh Why did no one tell me Jess is back on a team? WITH FUCKING BLADE AND WICCAN! COME ON NOW. Seriously, I expected nothing from a comic titled after a mobile game (I love this game btw) and the oddest team maybe ever. However, it almost 100% worked in ways I never expected. So we have Blade as the leader of this new Supernatural team. After most of them have been framed by shapeshifters, he decides to work with them to find out what's up. Of course every turn they make a new mystery appears....
Honestly I bought this strictly hoping Angela and Bucky would be BFFs because that’s the team up my queer heart needs and deserves. I have no idea what is happening but I’m willing to stick around for the ride for now.
One of those comics so obviously doomed from the off in today's marketplace that one oscillates between being glad it exists at all, and puzzled as to what the publisher thought they were doing. A fairly random bunch of heroes are found apparently attempting to burgle Avengers Mountain, except they've been framed by changelings left over from the War of the Realms, but they can't say this because being aware of the changelings makes you more susceptible, I think? This is not the first time a Tin...
