3.0

This read closer to a traditional story arc feel, but perhaps was less novel because of it. It did have me laughing out loud on several occasions (just ask Emily). It's too bad about the two guest art issues because Allred's style is impossible to emulate and losing it just makes the whole book seem tonally off.

Among the comedy and the satire, there’s some proper storytelling here - albeit doused liberally in absurdity - but Milligan and Allred are absolutely having the time of their lives (and Cooke and Fegredo are perfect pick up artists). The masterpiece, probably one of my favourite things Marvel have ever published, is the issue from the perspective of Doop which is just a joy and very, very funny. This was never going to be a massively popular comic, but it does feel like Milligan is really going for broke with this as his finest work
