The only one I liked was Invincible Iron Man #1, it felt like a well-written comic (although Madame Masque as the first villain isn't exactly pulling me in). All the rest of the issues felt spastic and kiddied-down, didn't like them at all. And what the hell is going on with Peter Parker? Even the comic itself pointed out that he's now Tony Stark light. Peter Parker will always be a loveable loser to me, not some cock-sure CEO that orders his minions around to be Spider-Man for him.

Can I have your impression of Avengers 00 for me it was pretty good and my favorite of the latest releases ;)

The Avengers felt like the same spastic, kiddied-down crap to me. And I have been an Avengers fan since the 80s.

Fox Apologizes for X-Men Poster Promoting Women's Violence
Really? It's a super-hero movie. Violence is kind of essential to the genre.
My question to the fem-nazis that seem to want to enforce their views on everyone else: Why do you think it's okay for men to be beat up in a super-hero movie? Why only pick out the women? Equality, right?
doafan:
So now the male villains cannot hit any super heroines in action movies, really ?, so I guess what will come next is that we no longer gonna see more females in this kind of genre, seriously this is going nuts, hope that this bullshit can't reach the comics :-\

I just finished this 6-parter last night.
This is a fantastic story that deserves the same recognition that some of the best Amazing Spider-Man storylines get.
It really tugged at the heartstrings with Vermin. He was a villain, technically, but he was more like a victim in this. You found out why he was a villain and what drove him to such hatred. I won't give it away here, but it is definitely worth reading.
And then on top of it, we see Harry Osborn spiral out of sanity and the resurgence of his Green Goblin persona. During this, he attacks Spider-Man and puts him under a hallucinatory drug. And we see the demons that Peter Parker has been holding back all these years.
Great story that dives into the psyche's of these characters and really does a great job of expressing the frustration and tragedy of these characters. Check these out while the issues are still cheap (90s stuff seems to be on the rise).
