TALES FROM THE BACK ISSUE BIN!! VOL.5!!!!

Hey, Waffle here with another installment of "Tales From The Back Issue Bin!!".

This weeks book is Alias 16, from the "Alias" section. It’s the beginning of an arc, so I wasn’t too lost.

To start off. This book was AMAZING. Plain and simple. Bendis is an amazing writer. This at least doesn’t just through me in. It starts off in a deli which is about to be robed. The main character, Jessica Jones*cough*skrull*cough*, Stops the robbery and flees. On returning to her apartment she finds the new Spider-Woman in her bathroom. After this confrontation, Spider-Woman flees crying. Scared, Jessica calls Scott Lang, Ant-Man. She ends up staying at his place, searching for who Spider-Woman is. She calls up a friend in S.H.I.E.L.D. and finds out. After getting a hard time, she curses out S.H.I.E.L.D. After which, her phones rings, and it’s her friend in S.H.I.E.L.D. telling her not to do that. Yadda yadda yadda, she confronts J. Jonah Jameson.I wanna’ read more. NOW! I think I shall.

I’ll give Alias 16, 4 out of 5 special gold stars.

Join me next week when I tackle an Alpha Flight issue.
