Ultimate X-Men Vol. 5: Ultimate WarThe Ultimates take on the X-men after Magneto blows up the Brooklyn Bridge in the name of mutantkind, and while Chris Bachalo's art is great as always Mark Millar never really tried to make any sense as to why the Ultimates went to arrest the X-Men when their enemy did something terrible.

Batman: CataclysmA magnitude 7.5 earthquake strikes Gotham and it's up to Batman to save it? Shouldn't Superman or Green Lantern or one of the countless other heroes with near limitless powers be helping out rather than Batman, whose only power is immense wealth, and his harem of child sidekicks?

Thunderbolts: Justice, Like Lightning...It was a brilliant idea, in the wake of Onslaught killing most of the major Marvel heroes to create a supposed new replacement band of heroes who are revealed to be villains at the end of the first issue. Unfortunately, based on this collection it looks like the book didn't have much direction past that idea, and sort of meandered around while the "heroes" plotted to conquer the world/started to like being heroes.

I'm too immature to read comics that don't have sexy women characters who wear tight-n-shiny body suits.
Well, you're in luck, because I don't think I've ever reviewed such a comic.
Thunderbolts pretty much meandered around aimlessly until post Civil War. The changed lineup and putting Norman Osborn in the lead spot made things much more interesting.
