    Amazing Adventures: Vol. 1: Issue #1 - B-Movie Type Horror with B-Movie Quality 0

    This comic is like a 1950s/60s Horror B-Movie, which is good if you like it and the Twilight Zone feel in the first two stories, but just like those movies it isn't very good quality and is kind of problematic like with a white man being turned into an Asian man at the end of the third story....

    Amazing adventure#1 0

    The story of Torr is a classic scenario of an Alien agent preparing an inavsion... The way it start makes it interesting, but it's just too quick to developp and between me and you, Torr would probably be more efficient by keeping is original form, like the cover of the issue suggest it. Doctor Droom is probably the first step of the creation of Doctor Strange...Nice and easy quick reading, only 25 pages, enjoyable at some points, but not a lot. ...
