Midnight Suns #1
SCORE: 56
I knew there was a Midnight Suns video game coming out. In fact I am
writing the Midnight Suns #1 comic book review one month before the
video game comes out. I knew this dealt with the Marvel magic users more
than anything else. Sort of like Justice League Dark in DC Comics. I am
not really sure why Wolverine is in Midnight Suns #1 though. There are a
lot of aspects of Midnight Suns #1 that make little to no sense to me.
More on that in just a little bit. There will be some spoilers within
Midnight Suns #1.
There is this zombie Zoe who goes to the Strange Academy in Midnight
Suns #1. There is a vision that all these different magic users see. It
is in essence the end of the world in four days. These evil vapors are
after Zoe. Somehow she is the key to the destruction of the world.
Wolverine is the one character that did not get to see the vision of the
apocalypse. Which is a bit weird to say considering that is also the
name of a X-Men villain. I was almost tempted to find a different word
to describe it.
The issues families will have is violence, blood, magic, lack of attire,
enticement to lust, occult, demons, blood, sexual deviancy and more. The
bad language is shown with odd symbols. Ghost Rider is now a Native
American young lady in Midnight Suns #1. I had no idea Marvel changed
Ghost Rider in such a strange fashion. She does call herself Spirit
Rider at one point instead of Ghost Rider. Not a lot of difference in
the concepts there though. Wolverine is not very helpful in Midnight
Suns #1 against the vapor attackers.
I had bought a few more comics in this series. I am honestly not sure
how many more I want to read. I did some research and see that Midnight
Suns is going to be a five issue mini series. I may try and get through
the five issues. Ultimately Midnight Suns #1 did not impress me. Not one
bit. There is so much bad content within Midnight Suns #1 that was not
needed. Why include so much controversial and divisive content? It
honestly makes little to no sense to me. Why change the gender and race
of certain characters?
Blade is one of the few stand out characters within Midnight Suns #1.
Whereas Wolverine does not really fit in Midnight Suns #1, Blade fits
perfectly. Blade does not know all of the right terms for some of the
things they face within Midnight Suns #1. To me Blade's descriptions
were pretty accurate. He has to be corrected by others who are show off
and know-it-all characters. Midnight Suns #1 has evil looking characters
on the side of good. There is a demon and a zombie that are in the
school together learning.
