I can never remember which of the two KUBERT brothers is the one I like. Well, this issue reminded me. It's NOT Adam. Tiny, awkward comic panels, crowded busy in every single panel. Never a moment to breathe. It's hard to believe that one of the greatest comic book storytellers trained and raised this guy. Typical comic fare we've seen a million times before, I have no clue why this is an 'event'. It's dull and it was difficult to plod through how long this thing just goes on and on...

I give it 3 out of 10 Grahams
