So it looks like all these characters appear in these 6 issues then again in Marvel comics presents. in over 4000 issues, how many of us are going to remember these issues.

I finished it 30 seconds ago, and I barely remember it.

This is giving non-Disney 80s family animated film vibes.

Worst summary ever:

A poor attempt to write a girl character in a comic. I curse the Marvel Comics Presents that features her again.

I want more fantasy comics, but not like this.

I wanted this to be over at least six pages into this...

Saturday Morning cartoon characters that never get a proper introduction. Just a rush of exposition and action scenes which seem to make a narrative...

Well, it's a break from super-heroics, if nothing else. I'll stick around, but I hope there's a point in this coming soon. 2 stars

Doc Strange could have zapped this zxaxz thing without batting an eye.

I'm not sure what to make of this. If nothing else, at least I'm curious.

I can't explain why I hate this so much, but I truly do.

-Firmly planted in the Simonson "story-by-the-numbers" mode, but I liked the art and it was enjoyable enough. Not sure if I can take this for 6 issues, though.
