Secret Wars

I recently decided to dive back into comics and this made me want to get back out. I just don't care at all when they're this self-important.

I would give it 5 stars. But.... Human Torch burned it.

No, not really, just.. for the sake of all the science talk, for the stuff that were hard to follow sometimes when you just wanna read and have fun, and for all this time that every single issue towards the end was getting SO DAMN LONG TO PUBLISH, MARVEL.

Ugh. 

Do NOT. I repeat. Do NOT pick this up if you think you're going to read it and understand everything that's happening. Nope. You gotta read the Avengers and New Avengers volumes first. 4 Volumes I think, that lead to this event.
By the way all the volumes worth the reading. Not just because you'll get everything that's happening in this one, but also because they're fun to read. Duh.

The event was Very good. Great story and with some solid artwork. REALLY great moments. Moments that will make you shout YEAH! to characters and with some priceless laugh out loud moments (thanks to Peter Parker mostly).

Haven't enjoyed an event so much since the House of M days. I mean like overall. Well, ok I liked Civil War too. Just liked though. Hmm, Secret Invasion also was good, although artwork really helped on that one. Come to think of it, maybe I should do a re-read of all of those cuz you never know, all that was waaaayyy back. Anyway.. oh Fear Itself sucked. Siege...well.. that sucked too. Dark Reign (was that even an event?) sucked too. Whatever. Infinity. Ahhhh INFINITY. That event was the SHIT. Oh and don't get me started on Annihilation. Awesomeness. One of my all time favourites. Ok I'll stop.

Anyway, Secret Wars is GOOD. Finally. And I love me some Hickman, but man, he tries HARD to confuse people. Oh, before I forget..
What I LOVED about this event, was its tie-ins. Yeah. I think it's the first time since... forever really, that I really liked if not all, most of the tie-ins of an event. Tie-ins suck so much from both Marvel & DC that every time a new event was announced I was dreading the moment I would pick up a tie-in read like the first issue of it, and drop it because it sucked. Every damn time. Sure, I'll back off. 9 times out of 10 tie ins SUCK. 
That is the LAW.

I'd like to point out that Deadpool's tie in SUCKED. Sucked Sucked Sucked. And I was mostly thinking when the event was announced along with the tie ins -- that HEY at least I'm getting a new Deadpool mini-series title, that's nice, the other tie-ins? meh, we'll see. And turned out that Deadpool SUCKED and everything else (mostly) was great. oh well, sorry for the off-topic. But it hurts man... it hurts.
Where was I? Oh yeah, ALL TIE INS SUCK ALL THE TIME FOREVER AND ALWAYS--- BUT

Secret Wars changed all that, gave me hope. Most of the titles were fun to read with great stories and art. 

So my point here, is you better go read the TIE INS too. (do NOT read the SIEGE tie-in BEFORE you read the main event. It will ruin Secret Wars #8 for you) You are welcome.

Now, the end of the world and all that. Marvel universe and Ultimate universe collided and everyone died besides....?..... Reed Richards along with some others inside a raft/spaceship kinda thing and they landed in some planet they have no idea where or what or how or whatever. (some other people(ha) survived but I won't tell you who)

Long story short...

Doctor Doom is God now. Saved whatever he could save (or did he?) from the end of the worlds. (ALL OF THEM) and he made a patched up world with fractions from different alternate universes that we now call BATTLEWORLD. 

Are you still with me?

But in this world there's this thing.. hm.. there's no Reed Richards. I wonder why?!

In this new world with Doom as a ruler, Sue Storm is his wife, and Valeria and Franklin are his children. And Doctor Strange is his... right hand. And there's lots and lots of fun to be had.

I can't really say much else, cuz I'll ruin it for ya, whatever you do, go read Avengers and New Avengers previous volumes that lead to this event and you'll have your fun.

I'm going to stop now because I can't WAIT to go and read about how this event sucked once again and how "I'm never going to read Marvel comics again" and boo hoo hoo pretentious reviews from others and laugh. 

The ending was satisfying. And I'm not one to please in comics. But I'm not the one who bitches all the time rating everything with 1 star and shit either. If you are that guy/girl, drop comics and go find a new hobby that's fun. 

PEACE.

P.S.

DOOM BLESS US, EVERYONE!
