[Dr Kain]

So I read the first volume of the 2009 series where Miguel gets his new suit and well, it was all right. The story for the comic was meh and the sad part was I read through all 5 issues in about the same amount of time as it has been taking me to read through a single issue of the original Spidey run. I'm not sure if that shows how little plot there is in a modern day comic or if I'm just reading through the 60s stuff at a slower pace. Either way, should I be concerned?


Anyway, so I didn't hate the new suit as I was expecting to. In fact, I love the little blue lights he has on the suit. The problem is that I just don't see a reason for this new suit to exist. There was nothing in here that made me think, "Oh man, I am so happy he has an entirely new suit for that battle because he really needed it." It seems to be nothing more than a cosmetic change. Okay, cool, he can fly like Iron Man now, because that is exactly what I felt he was missing before.

I also don't like how they through this new Captain America woman at you without any proper introduction, she's just there.

On the positive side, the conversation about The Wizard of Oz was hilarious and the one where Miguel mentions Rambo.
