Summary: Decline of the comic book, Thanke for nothing.
Comment: The 1990's will always be remembered as the end of the comic book and the rise of the internet. A time when the companies stopped giving us great comic book stories and the real writers and artists gave way to a new generation of internet geeks who dish out trash like this book and do not really work on the story nor pages. Take a simple idea. Hav every DC and Marvel Character fight one another and the victor will save his or her own universe from being destroyed. Next, create a new character called ACCESS, who keeps the two universes seperated. End result is bad marketing, a waste of reader's money, and the end of any need to read comics again because they are now forever ruined.

Summary: The Fights We Wanted to See
Comment: Superman vs Hulk, Batman vs Captain America, Green Lantern vs Silver Surfer, Thor vs Captain Marvel, Thanos vs Darkseid, all this and more, what else can you ask from a comic book?.

The Story: could have been better but four issues is a very small space when you are writing something this big. It's worth mentioning that there are many funny momments when other caracters collide, Bullseye vs Batman, Gambit stealing the Batmovile, the Scarecrows kidnapping Louise Lane, Clark Kent and Peter Parker working for the same newspaper, the one thing I didn't like was the "Amalgam Universe".
About the fights the best by far is Superman vs Hulk, Wolverine vs Lobo it's desapointing. If the results were based on powers not popularity it would have been kite diffrent.

The Art: Claudio Castellini is marvelous, the details, the anatomy, the carcters personallity... everything looks perfect. Five stars for him.

Dan Jurgens: not as good as Claudio Castellini but not bad.

In conclusion the story is decent, the art is great and every major caracter from the DC and Marvel universe is there, so the book is extremly enyolable.
