I expected this book to be my least favorite but I was proven wrong. In a single issue they changed Chuckles from a character that I had more-or-less disregarded growing up (from his comics and movie appearances) to a character that I really like. Surprisingly I'm liking Origins and this book better than the core book. I don't understand why they're moving so slowly in the core book - the art is good and they've got a lot of potential, but the issues are too short with too little activity taking place (perhaps with the exception of the first issue). Hopefully things will pick up and then I can truly be happy with all of the new IDW continuity.

Gotta disagree my friend, the main series isn't doing anything for me at all....the character development is slow and there is no action building at all. I like Origins the most so far with the new Cobra title a close second. There has been no "meat" to the main series yet.

I agree, but so far Origins has the notch above because of the additional character involvement. Although great character development with Chuckles in the Cobra title, I like the "diverse" development going on Origins after 1 issue of each. But who knows, I might be giving IDW too much credit, but perhaps this is their "plan". 1 series to focus of getting lots of names across in the main series, specialized development to the other two titles. It's worth the 12 bucks a month for 3 quality Joe titles.

I read 1-3 last night so I decided to bump this thread after having to try and find it
BTW, why is this in the news and rumours section and not in the feedback and reviews section when in essence this is a review? 1-3 have been ok with issue 3 having the big shocker (not the hand gesture) but I have one huge problem with this issue. Chuckles is clearly out of ammo as he leaves the bar on page 8 but is once again firing his pistol on the very next page Now it could have been a mistake on the part of the artist but this is a blatant mistake that should have been picked up by someone at IDW. They went to the trouble to notify the readers that Chuckles was out of ammo so his further actions should have refered to this I usually don't nitpick things but this was the premier issue of the series and it really stuck out to me. Its lucky I didn't read this when it first come out because I probably would've dropped the series. Yes, that is a bit extreme for that one problem but I read alot of comics and if the first issue is not up to my standard then I am not going to continue to waste my money on a series. I'm glad I read all 3 issues together because it is turning out to be a really good series so far and it is still on my pull list Last edited by TheFallen; 05-17-2009 at 12:11 AM.. |
