This issue really goes places. Gerry Duggan and Scott Koblish aren’t merely trading on nostalgia when it comes to depicting the classic Cable/Deadpool dynamic in this arc. Instead, they’re testing the bonds of that partnership and exploring whether it can survive Wade’s recent backslide into villainy. In the process, the duo are delivering some of the wackiest and most entertaining moments in Duggan’s long run.

Admittedly, this issue gets off to a slightly rough start. It quickly becomes apparent that Deadpool and Cable’s recent feud has more or less blown over, despite where issue #288 left the characters. That’s a bit of a tension-deflator. Luckily, it’s not long before the story regains its momentum. Duggan and Koblish reunite the old Dynamic Duo just in time to pit them against Stryfe in a wonderfully over-the-top confrontation. Stryfe has never ranked among my favorite X-Men villains. It helps a great deal that Duggan takes such a tongue-in-cheek approach to the character, using Deadpool to poke fun at the many weird excesses of Cable and his evil clone.

Earlier this year, we dubbed October 27 the busiest day of 2017 in the world of games, movies, and television. Between three major game releases, a huge Netflix debut, and a big Halloween movie, the day seemed more packed than any other this year.

Well, November 17 is giving that Friday a run for its money, with Justice League, The Punisher, Star Wars Battlefront II, and so much more being released.

Check out the gallery below, watch the video above, or read our full breakdown of the absolutely packed day. And be sure to come back to this page over the coming days, as we’ll update this post with all relevant reviews for November 17’s biggest releases.

Plenty of Spider-Man fans are questioning Sony’s decision to move forward with a Spider-Man-less Venom movie. But this series proves that such a thing is not only possible, it can do justice to the character. Why do you need Spider-Man when Venom is perfectly happy to take on the character’s rogues gallery himself? Therein lies the appeal with this current story arc.

On paper, Kraven the Hunter seems badly outmatched against his symbiotic prey. But if writer Mike Costa does anything right in this story, it’s highlighting Kraven’s cunning, bloodthirsty nature and his ability to out-think and out-plan his more powerful prey. In short, he works just as well as a nemesis to Eddie Brock as he has for Peter Parker all these years. I do wish this issue devoted a little more time to exploring the Venom/Kraven dynamic directly, but it certainly succeeds in casting Kraven as a major threat in Venom’s efforts to reestablish himself as New York’s designated Lethal Protector.

One of the great things about Jack Kirby’s work is that he often blended the most outlandish, bombastic concepts with perfectly ordinary, mundane trappings. The intersection between the mighty gods of Asgard and the ordinary mortals of Earth is at the very heart of Marvel’s Thor comics. It makes sense that there would be something of that juxtaposition at work in the Fourth World comics, too, as that mythology began life as an extension of the Thor franchise. That’s a quality that tom King and Mitch Gerads tap into with the latest chapter of Mister Miracle, as the series works ever harder to blend the grandeur of the New Gods with the depressing day-to-day existence of Scott Free.
