Oh boy oh boy oh boy...

after oh so many Boring stories.. with a few good stories... always or at the least most of the time great artwork, we finally come to the moment where Neal Adams starts drawing..

Look here. The stories are mediocre at best just for the single fact alone that it was so old and so naive(?) so.. simple.. back then. So most of the stories have that same thing that I said for on previous masterworks volumes, over-explaining what's happening currently on the pages from the characters, stating obvious facts as well. 

"""IE: Ironman: Now that this villain did that to me (a page ago) I have to do this and that with my repulsors, and then if everything goes well, now that the villain is jumping around I will do this and that because 5 pages ago I did that, and the villain did another thing in the last 2 issues and for another 7 seven lines I'm going to explain what I want the reader to know in the stupidest way possible. """

See what I've had to deal with half the time for 10 volumes now? Yeah. That sucked.

And it wasn't once or twice, that kept happening again and again, and I'd always tell myself it was the start of superhero writing, it was a simpler time, don't be too harsh, but yeah... I'm not a patient man. Oh well.

And here we go, Neal Adams... oh man... Neal Adams in my honest opinion changed SO much, he changed the way artwork was in general in comic books and gave it something new, something fresh, something WOW! Yeah. I simply love his art. And you will too!
