Marvel Comics Presents #71

The Wolverine and Ghost Rider story comes to an end. Finally! Too many ninjas. Too much backstory of a family that isn't interesting. Too many chapters. It all comes to a close!

More deaths fill the pages of the Shanna the She Devil segment. But at least no animals were harmed in the illustrating of this chapter. 

The Daredevil story takes a great turn in a apocalyptic story that is becoming a whodunit. Very good story that just has an implausible overtone to it.

The New Mutant Warlock stars in the one-shot story. This was a story that I wish Marvel had followed up on. In it, Warlock saves a FBI agent from a group of mutated scientists with the ability to change their shape. Kinda like Clayface- only with flesh instead of mud. And there is 3 of them!

Anyways, the story had a setup where the FBI agent offers Warlock a place in the agency and I really think Marvel should have done a miniseries on the pairing of the straight-laced fed and the wacky New Mutant. Another Scott Lobdell triumph that had a bunch of untapped potential. Too late to do something now...

A better issue. Maybe I am biased with the Wolverine/Ghost Rider story coming to a close. But I did enjoy reading this one.

Worth Consuming!

Rating: 8 out of 10 stars.
