Guest Review: Hawkeye #5 - The Tape, 2 of 2

Hawkeye #5 Review Ninja Troubles Original Review by  Johnkmccubbin91  at Comic Vine This has been one of the best series Marvel has brought out in the last year, and I've been loving all the different Hawkeye tales. At one point I was considering not getting this series due to budget reasons but I'm very happy I did has it's been much better than I'd ever expected, and Matt Fraction has done some marvelous work on this series. Plot This issue sees the continuation of the last where Hawkeye has to retrieve a tape that has him killing a terrorist on it. Hawkeye is now captured, and is attacked by ninjas whilst Kate Bishop is posing as Madame Masque, who she's got tied up in the bathroom.

Indestructible Hulk #1 Review S.H.I.E.L.D. SMASH!  Original Review by  Johnkmccubbin91  at Comic Vine This is the Marvel NOW! series I have been most looking forward to. There is a number of reasons I have been most looking forward to this series but the main reason is due to the previous Incredible Hulk series being so bad, and wanting to see a good Hulk series once more. Another thing that I was looking forward to was seeing how Mark Waid handled the character as he's turned the Daredevil character into one of Marvel's best new series (at the time) with Daredevil. Plot This issue sees Bruce Banner visiting Maria Hill in a cafe to discuss joining S.H.I.E.L.D. , and how he's unhappy that people like Iron Man and Mr. Fantastic who are no smarter than him will be remembered as geniuses and all he'll be remember for is the Hulk.
