King In Black #5 Review: Overwrought
It's all unimportant as a symbiote from an earlier age (which was too short and too undeveloped a twist to build on itself) steps forth and kind of just marches through wildly implausible symbolic gestures (Paul Bettany knows what we're talking about here) to literally ignore a poster-worthy assemblage of heroes to take on the[...]
