The Road to...Planet Hulk and Thor's Return July 9, 2007
2 out of 3 found this review helpful

Only three of the issues collected here (Amazing Spider-Man #529 - 531) are directly connected to the Civil War. Nevertheless, this issue sets up the status quo of the Marvel Universe for many years to come.

The Illuminati issue is a prelude to Planet Hulk/World War Hulk, while the Fantastic Four issues foreshadow the impending return of Thor (which was teased but never happened during the Marvel Civil War). Marvel fans will enjoy the entire package here, as long as you're not expecting every issue to be strictly a Civil War setup.

Road to Civil War, or to Planet Hulk? July 7, 2007
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

This collects six issues of three titles that lead into the current state of Marvel's universe. The original Illuminati special is included, which reveals the level of preplanning by Reed and Tony, but does more to set up Planet Hulk than it does for Civil War. Similarly, the Fantastic Four issues have more to do with Planet Hulk and the recently launched Thor titles than the Civil War. The Amazing Spider-Man issues, however, are all about the Civil War, and offer some of the last rare laughs to be had in the entire event.

The art varies considerably, as three different art teams were used for the three different titles. The writing, however, is consistently good from both Brian Michael Bendis and J. Michael Straczynski. If you plan to read either Civil War, Planet Hulk, or the new Thor, this is worth picking up. It doesn't stand on its own, so don't get it unless you want it as the companion piece it was always intended to be.

The beggining of Civil War. July 2, 2007
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

This book presents the previous actions that lead the superhuman registration and the civil war. You will see the point of view of Iron Man, Fantastic Four, Spiderman and the AVENGERS ILUMINATTI(a new union of superheroes), also you will see Iron Man doing whatever he can to get what he wants. The art are excellent especialy in Amazing Spiderman (Ron Garney), well you have to read this book if you want to understand the facts around the Civil War.
