rebus's review against another edition

Absolutely horrendous. Just hollow, empty posturing by the characters in these tales, with no relation to the real world or metaphor for anything honest, proving once again that Marvel reigns supreme in terms of meaningless pro war propaganda.

Amazing Fantasy is a throwback comic to the heyday of 70s Marvel comics, pulp adventure stories of yesteryear like Conan The Barbarian, and the What if? Marvel series. It's a fun and goofy and somewhat poignant exploration of what happens during a near death experience. Spy-school Black Widow, teenage Spider-Man, World War II Captain America — the most iconic versions of your favorite Marvel characters from across time and space — all wake up on an island of intrigue, darkness and amazing fantasy when it looks like they die in action. Are they dead? Are they dreaming? Or have they truly been transported to another fantastical realm? And as the heroes explore their uncanny surroundings, can they find a way to return home?
The story and art by Kaare Andrews is truly fantastic. You really have to have a love for old school pulp art and storytelling to enjoy this I think.
The concept of a near death amazing fantasy island experience is a fascinating one...
I thoroughly enjoyed this comic but I realize, it's not for everyone.
