So far I have finished part one and it is brilliant!! ”
“The Marvel universe as imagined by Neil Gaiman and in the Tudor times. Good, good stuff. I should really just donate one of my copies to the high school for students to enjoy.”

Yes | No“While certainly not meant for the "serious academic," as someone who is an academic, I still appreciated and liked it (especially the historical tidbits). Would probably be more enjoyable if I were really into the Marvel universe.”

“I can't decide if I like this one as much as I like the Eternals, more than I like the Eternals, or less than I like the Eternals. Neil Gaiman is good at re-imagining things, and I like the historical time period in question, but don't know very much about the original Marvel versions of most of his characters (aside from the X-Men).”

“I could say a lot here, but I won't. Why I loved it: Neil Gaiman, really inventive premise, beautiful artwork, and a lot of fun matching up the Elizabethan superheroes to their modern day counterparts. This is what a good comic book should be--draws you in and won't leave you alone until you've finished it, all the while reading with a ridiculously big, childlike smile on your face. Loved it. ”

“Amazing alternate reality where the Marvel Universe basically begins to come to fruition in the year 1602 instead of modern times. The reason is pretty great. An amazing story and you only need to know the basics of the Marvel Universe to enjoy it...but of course the more you know the more you'll enjoy it.”
