November Book Club Review

Infinity Gauntlet

Average rating : 9

Infinity Gauntlet is a six issue collection and the first of the three Infinity titles which revolve around the near universe ending events that follow the uniting of the six Infinity Gems.

Master of Everything

The story revolves around Thanos quest to rebalance the universe for Death. To accomplish his mission Thanos collects the six infinity gems ; Soul, Time, Space, Mind, Reality, Power, and binds them together giving him absolute mastery over them and essentially grants him the power of a God.

Infinity Gauntlet features an extremely wide cast of characters from Marvel mainstays like Wolverine and Spider-man to cosmic entities like Galactus and Eternity banding together to try, and for the most part fail miserably, to save the universe from Thanos.

“ You had all these super heroes banded together that felt extremely helpless and human” - Keenan

The Mad Titan and Mistress Death

With limitless power at his disposal and little to no resistance to hinder him, Thanos embarks on a quest to rule the universe impress a girl. After completing the task Death had set him by killing half the population of the universe Thanos still found himself unable to win Death’s affections.

“I feel his situation with Mistress Death and trying to win a girls heart a bit typical and lame especially compared to his infinite power” - Mario

Having his heart set on an unachievable goal is a reflection of Thanos biggest flaw, the deep seeded sub-conscious desire to lose. As it is pointed out to him during the story the only really reason Thanos is or has ever been defeated is that deep down he wants to fail because he doesn’t feel he deserves ultimate power.

“You really need to read the back story to see why Thanos deserved the Infinity Gauntlet” -Matt

This fatal flaw is one of the reasons Thanos makes a great villain, its not his own arrogance or any great act of heroics that wins the day time after time but the characters own complexity and contradictions.

Artwork

The artwork was very typical of the early 90’s. Although a lot of us really enjoyed the artwork it was hit and miss with some panels being entirely too busy and some of the color work lacking due to the technological limitations at the time.

“Artwork was top notch but I hate that #$&@$@ pink “- Rene

“The frames were very busy” - Rick

“The artwork stood up very well” - James

That being said the cover work and splash pages were excellent, well detailed and a great balance to a very text heavy layout.

Summary

As a whole Infinity Gauntlet is a solid read, it’s a classic piece of Marvel story telling. It was more than just a straight forward heroes vs. villains story which featured the refreshing switch up of watching the heroes lose for a change. The artwork was colourful, detailed, and only a little dated considering its twenty years old. The pairing of George Perez and Ron Lim was both recognizable and well reviewed.

“ I enjoyed the way it was written, it was very contemplative” - Gabriel

“ The artwork was very natural from reading Silver Surfer” - Mathieu

“ The art was great, the pairing of Perez and Lim is some of my favourite art in comics” - Remi

Ratings

Picked the book: Scott - Rating 9.5

“ I learned so much about the Marvel characters”

Harshest critic : Colin - Rating 7

“ It was too much cosmic stuff, too convoluted”

Best rating : Boutet - Rating 10

“Thanos is never really fully the villian, he has a deep pain that humanizes him”

Next months selection : reMIND

We all know Grant Morrison... or do we?

Hey guys! I'm sure we all know Grant Morrison (super-writer for DC and Marvel)... but do we REALLY know the real Grant?

Okay okay, what I found certainly isn't REALLY Grant - but it's quite a humorous take on his career thus far (and his origins). I've attached the link below for anyone interested - and hopefully it brings as much humor to you as it did me.

Book Club - October Review - Petrograd

Petrograd

Average rating - 8

Petrograd is a stand alone graphic novel that follows a reluctant middle class British spy charged with the seemingly impossible task of assassinating the most important man in Russia : Grigori Rasputin.

War Sucks

Petrograd is a work of fiction based on facts. The introduction did an excellent job in setting the dismal tone and depicting the desperate circumstances that most of Europe found themselves in during the first world war.

“ The story seems very true to history and puts you into the mindset of the Russian people at the time” - Rene

Personally the thought of reading a historical story sounded at best like a punishment which is why I picked it up one night thinking something boring to read would help me sleep and instead found myself reading the whole thing in one sitting . The writer did an amazing job at slowly leading you into the plot by subtly educating you on the circumstances and interests that shaped World War One. The introduction did leave the first part of the book with a fairly slow pace but one that definitely worked in the stories favor.

“The pacing seemed slow at first but it was really perfect “ - Mathieu

“ It was a great introduction to the history behind the time of the war” - Colin

The Reluctant Spy

The story follows Cleary, a former solider turned spy for the British government. When the story opens Cleary is well established in the city of Petrograd having contacts within both the upper and lower class societies as well as the Russian secret police.

Cleary himself is definitely no James Bond; he has no gadgets, no fast cars, and no aptitude for violence. He is just an ordinary man willing to do anything his country asks of him to avoid being sent back to the front lines.

“Cleary was an every man, more like a real spy” - Remi

“ It was a spy story without all the tech” - Matt

As mentioned earlier Cleary is middle class man, a concept that didn’t exist in Russia at the time. Being somewhere in the middle is really the essence of all Cleary’s problems, he constantly finds himself being drug in all directions and never doing what he thinks is right.

Eventually Cleary finds himself stuck with the impossible task of assassinating Rasputin with only idiot aristocrats to help him. Watching the poor practical Brit try to plot with a group of flamboyant fools makes for a highly entertaining story that leads him to an ending that finally sees him pull off a political coup worthy of a legendary spy.

The story is propelled by the fears, anxieties , difficulties, and ultimately the personal growth of Cleary" - Gabriel

Artwork

This book is visually stunning, The cover work alone makes it worth the purchase .

The line work is simple but extremely effective. At first it can be a little difficult to follow the story until you become familiar with the characters but once you do the simple but effective style marked by bold expressions and stunning scenery will leave you nothing but positive things to say.

The color work featured a sepia tone which in addition to adding to the old fashioned feel of the story creates beautifully shaded panels and subtle but power effects like the first appearance of the stories “villain” Rasputin.

Summary

Read this book! Seriously! Almost everyone who reviewed it loved it and was really surprised that they did. A lot of us are big super hero fans so a book about an old school spy in Russia would not have been on our usual reading list which left us all pleasantly surprised by how much we enjoyed it.

“ Not the usual, so it was nice to get my feet wet somewhere else” - Mark

“ It was a nice change of pace from super heroes” - James

The story was well written weaving humor and violence effortlessly into the bleak backdrop of early 1900’s Russia. The artwork was gorgeous and the level of detail work that went into the overall visual package was top notch . I really did expect to hate this book since it was not at all my style but it was possibly the best thing I’ve read all year! That being said some of us loved it some of us were under whelmed.

“ I could see it as a movie” - Keenan

“Not the be all and end all but it didn’t suck” - Brad

“ I wouldn’t re-read it” - Rick

Ratings

Picked the book : Cripps - Rating n/a

Theoretical quote “ I picked this book but didn’t show up”

Harshest Critic: Boutet - Rating 3

“ Incredibly promising but didn’t deliver. The artwork was left wanting”

Besting Rating: Rene / Keenan / Colin/ Gabriel - Rating 9

“When this many people give it a 9 do you really need a quote to back it up” - Me
