Is Ant-Man swell? Does Karnak inspire religious fervor? Does Soule humanize the Inhumans? All this and more...

I think this is week three.
You’re being a bit harsh on Ant-Man. It’s not quite up to Superior Foes level of plotting and humor, but I find it a very easy and enjoyable read. I’m a big fan of Nick Spencer generally.
I loved Charles Soule on Swamp Thing and especially She-Hulk, but his work on Wolverines and Inhumans has left me absolutely cold.
I really enjoy Ant-Man, so if this is more of the same I will pick it up. To each their own!
As far as Soule’s Marvel work, I really liked Death of Wolverine and She-Hulk and have enjoyed Inhumans. Wolverines was a mess. I look forward to Daredevil.
I liked the pre-Secret Wars Spencer Ant-Man enough to follow it here. This new series has more of the Cinematic Universe feel about it–which didn’t end up being “in a good way” despite enjoying the movie. It seemed perfectly fine for what it was but I just don’t see myself buying what amounts to me as a movie tie-in book. More for everyone else.
Oh Karnak. Was there any doubt the two bankable talents Marvel still has in Aaron (signed to an exclusive) and Ellis (Stalin dictates) actually deliver? Which is yet another nice gateway drug to…
The Inhumans. Like many I couldn’t seem to get into Soule’s Inhuman. Along with Karnak and Ms. Marvel I attempted one last triangulation on the property (Inhuman enough?) with Uncanny as the observable condition and sadly I detected no improvement in my enjoyment.
I’m at 3 ongoings and 1 miniseries so far.
