The Jackal returns in Dan Slott’s run, clone conspiracy arc 😣 *shudders*

Ah right okay, never read it...also never really want to read it 😂

From what I have heard, Number 1 issues sell bigger numbers. They will then include the original numbering when it comes up to an anniversary as those sell more . It is a slap in the face to the readers.

[@TheComicBookTrove]

It's a frustrating strategy, I definitely feel it just makes it unnecessarily complicated to keep track of series, especially for new people trying to get into comics

[@benjamin_parry]

I bought and read the first one. The first arc is great. The longer arc I wasn't so into, I think I will keep it more for the idea than the love of the content. But it means I won't pick this up as I think there are much stronger stories to collect out there.

[@TheComicBookTrove]

That makes sense, you've gotta go with books you're gonna enjoy the most!

[@Lexxuz00]

Can I start reading this alone or do I have to read something else first to understand what’s happening in this book

[@benjamin_parry]

@Lexxuz00 the first omni you can read stand alone. This second one I am unsure of as haven't read it.

[@RedKingdom28]

I’m a sucker for Gwen Stacy but not sure I should get this or not

[@TheComicBookTrove]

If you like Spider-Gwen then I think you'd like this, I still think she's a good character and the book is enjoyable...but there's stronger material out there and probably better omnibuses you could go for instead

[@RedKingdom28]

@@TheComicBookTrove which Omni’s would you suggest 🙂

[@TheComicBookTrove]

Plenty of great options, depends which character(s) you're looking for, but I've done a couple of top ten Marvel omnis videos and a DC one in the past for some suggestions

The art in this doesn't look good imo and is carried by the coloring, which seems to be the case for way too much modern stuff. Are you picking up the Immortal Hulk? Thanks for the overview.

[@TheComicBookTrove]

I didn't really mention the colouring and I should have, you're right it definitely boosts the quality of the artwork here. As for Immortal Hulk, I'll definitely be getting it as soon as I can and it'll probably be the next book I review on here
