Heart of Darkness #3 and #4 Review (SPOILERS)

This title was written for 12-year olds. Possibly written by 12-year olds. And certainly drawn by 12 year-olds.

It may very well have been the worst series since Micromasters. Come to think of it, I actually think this was inferior to even that.

What's the point of taking over what Simon laid down only to butcher the heck out of it? D-Void? Seriously?

Is this what we have to look forward to? Please tell me Abnett and Lanning don't come anywhere near the Chaos stuff or the plans thereafter.

no way is this as bad as Micromasters.

It's an interesting failure in my eyes - micromasters was just a big bag of c***

Is it like Death's Head all over again?

I.e. Furman creates, Abnett 'improves.'

I'll read Death's Head II in it's mediocre entirety, over and over again, at least a half dozen times before I rerelease this steaming pile from it's dark corner of the long box that I've consigned it to.

Grabbed issue #3 the other day, as it was the only non-Bayverse on the shelves at my LCS. Do I have to drive to ******* Vancouver or Seattle to get my comics? Is this what it's come to?

My expectations were pretty darn low, so there was actually something I enjoyed about this series. The greater sci-fi setting is really cool. Monsters and pirates on a gas planet, enormous graveyards of dead robots, various planets, etc. If this had been drawn by someone who could handle such things it would have a lot more redeeming value, stupid story notwithstanding.
