    Another great video 👍 I love Peter David almost everywhere that I read him so i didn't need much convincing. Just bought the last copy that was available for me at a "reasonable" prize (it is really a lot of pages 😂) The concept of another Spiderman on the future intrigues me, think will be fun. As I understand Peter David had another run at Spiderman 2099 yeara later compile in the Omnibus 2, now available? Does this one interest you, any plan of reading it?

    Another great review, thanks for that! My copy is on the way, I’ve read very little Hulk, just the Inmortal Hulk (loved that one by the way, great book in my opinion), so I wanted to read some older Hulk greats and this seemed like a good place to start. I think Peter David is a very interesting writer, I enjoyed what he did with Supergirl (though not everybody liked it) so with that and with your review I’m sure I’ll enjoy this one. Pity the Omni vol.1 is out of print. Don’t think it will matter too much starting from here? Hope they reprint it again. Anyway, enjoyed the video! Thank you 😊 PS: 30:11 Ah! Totally agree about the Punisher. That starting premise of the character is something I cannot really agree nor really enjoy 😢

    • @TheComicBookTrove
      @TheComicBookTrove Před 2 dny

      I'm sure volume 1 will be reprinted again at some point and whenever it is I definitely recommend it. As it is you're pretty much fine to skip it and start here for the time being as this volume more or less starts with Peter David shifting the story in a new direction from what was happening in volume 1 pretty quickly

    18:55 Another great review. I read this a couple of years ago and really loved it. I also enjoyed a lot the even more controversial (I think) Batgirl of Burnside. Totally different vibe and style but I liked it too. I'm wondering if you had a chance to read that one? Could be a good one for another video review?!

    • @TheComicBookTrove
      @TheComicBookTrove Před 2 dny

      I haven't read the Burnside stuff yet, honestly at the time it came out I remember the shift in art style put me off but it wouldn't bother me so much these days I'm sure

      @@TheComicBookTrove Yes, get one if you got the chance. By the way, what do you think about Batwoman Omnibus? I enjoyed that one also, personally I like Greg Rucka (his novels too, I’ve read all of them except the Star War ones) and the stories and what he does here with the character.

  • @MrComm
    @MrComm Před 4 dny

    You're right, I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere so I just discovered this because of your review, and got my hands on a paperback copy. Thanks for covering it. Personally I think 90's comics like Lara Croft, Switchblade... are a fun light read (I don't mind the over the top art also). Please cover some more of these king of 90's comics. The reviews you did on that ones was great!

    I know Iron Man vol 1 isn´t that good, but when do you think it picks up?? Vol 2 and 3 are coming up and I might skip them and just keep my Vol 1 if they are more of the same.

    • @TheComicBookTrove

      I'd say it improves steadily during volume 2 and 3, it's just the earliest stuff that's pretty rough but the same can be said for a lot of characters

  • @lukewarwick9350
    @lukewarwick9350 Před 17 dny

    I was thinking about this when I received my copy and seeing the contents of volume 2 (Including all of max carnage, lethal protector etc). This era is where classic spidey was still consistently great and then once the clone saga hits, I don't think it's ever been the same. I actually enjoy a good portion of the clone saga, but that definitely signalled a point where spidey lost his way. Practically every run since has followed a pattern of a new writer making their mark with some great stories, followed by editoral interfering or ideas going nowhere resulting in it being mixed overall. Having said that, if we get 2-3 omnis to round out the post clone sage/pre JMS I'll be getting them. Likewise with the brand new day era yet to be collected. I'll be very interested to see your thoughts on the J M Dematteis spectacular omni if you get that next year. One of my top 3 spidey runs.

    One of my favorite sagas for Marvel! I had one point of disbelief in the prequel story. I did not believe Maestro Hulk would lose to Hercules in their one on one fight. I think that since Hulk was at the peak of his power and soaking up all those rads, he should have been able to easily defeat Hercules!

    • @TheComicBookTrove
      @TheComicBookTrove Před 21 dnem

      I think it's because this version of Hulk doesn't get stronger as he gets angrier like classic savage Hulk and he hadn't yet been awake and wandering around long enough to absorb enough radiation, or at least that's how I thought of it

    Some of those early stories are model examples in imagination and concision. A truly wonderful collection that finishes on the first and probably best appearance of the Destroyer. Nothing that followed, not even the epic Simonson run, bettered what can be found here.
