Spidey Adventures!

Tonight was Marvel night, so we read Marvel Adventures Spider-Man #1. Spider-Man was looking for a New York Supreme Court judge that was actually in the mob's payroll. The story was being narrated by Gwen Stacy, Peter Parker's ex-girlfriend, whose father is a police Captain.

She was interviewing people to learn more about Spider-Man, for a school paper. People told him a lot of different things about Spidey, mostly crazy stuff, like him being a robot, an alien, or an immortal being.

Spider-Man's had a plan, his new girlfriend called the cops and the reporters, and he attacked the place where the mobsters had the judge holed up. He pretended to be injured while fighting the bad guys, and provoked the judge into grabbing a gun and coming after him. That's when he lead them all to the door, and into the hands of the cops.

This was a nice issue, great art, and nice characters. Thank you all for reading.

Professor Dinosaur out!

X-Men: First Class (Second Time!)

Tonight was Marvel night, an we read X-Men First Class #1. The X-Men went to the botanical garden, and a plant attacked them, but it didn't want to attack them. It turned out it was a creature that was under the artic ice, and some researchers were about to hurt it with a drill... and it just wanted to live off the rest of its life.

Professor X used his powers to contact the creature, and they learned what happened. It had like tentacles but made of plants, and eyes, many eyes.

The story is told by Bobby, or Iceman, writing a letter to his mother. In the end, he broke the letter, because it was full of information that someone might read and find out what really happens at Xavier's School.

My favorite part was when they fought the plant, and my favorite character was Professor X. I like him because he has mind powers, and used them to communicate with the creature.

Good night,
Professor Dinosaur

Join The Circus!

Tonight was Marvel Night, so it was the Avengers turn again, specifically, Avengers: The Origin #2. Hulk joined a circus, because he was hiding in one of their trailers, but the circus people were nice to him. The other heroes learned through Thor that this seems to be Loki's doing, because of their siblings rivalry... Loki is the god of strife, chaos and lies...

Thor and the other heroes couldn't agree, and they didn't believe that he was a real god, so he left to deal with Loki on his own. So, the other heroes were going to use Iron Man's tech to boost Ant-Man's helmet range to talk to ants all over the country, to find Hulk.

My favorite part in this comic was when Hulk was found by the circus folks, and they took him in because they all had in common that they were very much like Hulk, because they didn't fit in elsewhere.

Good night!

Secret Wars!

Oh yes it's Marvel night! And we read Spider-Man & The Secret Wars #1. Spidey and other heroes were taken to a planet where they had to fight, because there were villains too.

The villains destroyed the good guys' headquarters, and Molecule Man dropped a mountain on them, because he can control matter. Hulk was angry, so he held the mountain from crushing the heroes. In the end, they got out because Mr. Fantastic managed to supercharge Iron Man's armor with the help of Human Torch and Captain Marvel (the girl one).

My favorite part in this book was when Iron Man's repulsor broke them out of the mountain, and my favorite character was Captain Marvel.

Good night,
Professor Dinosaur

Avengers Assemble... almost?

Avengers was tonight's read, specifically Avengers: The Origin #1. Loki, Thor's stepbrother, the god of evil or greed or something like that, wanted revenge on Thor. He made Hulk break some train tracks, but Hulk actually saved the train.

People think that Hulk is a monster, and that he's a bad guy, but he's really a good monster. Some friends of Hulk tried to call the Fantastic Four, but Loki sent their message in Viking runes to Thor. He also sent messages to Wasp, Ant-Man, and Iron Man. So all four heroes broke into Hulk's friends' house... and that's where the story ended for this issue.

It was very fun, good art and writing. My favorite part is when Hulk thought the train tracks were a monster, because it was very funny. Ant-Man as my favorite hero in this issue, because he's, well, an ant man.

Bye!

With Great Power...

Today we read Marvel Adventures Spider-Man #1, we learned about how Peter Parker was mutated by a spider bite. He fought in a wrestling match with his new powers, and he let a criminal escape. Then he got home, and found out his uncle had been killed.

He went after the guy who killed his uncle, and realized it was the same guy he'd let escape. Peter learned that if you're very powerful, you must be very responsible. The part I liked better was the wrestling match.

Bye bye!

Dad's Note: Wow, this was an awful Spider-Man comic... The Professor said he wanted to read Spider-Man, so I thought it'd be good to start here, instead of with the classic #1... but the art is horrible, the dialogues are dry, and Peter Parker has blue eyes instead of the brown eyes he should have. Next time he wants Spider-Man, we'll go with something else... Not Ultimate, that's too... decompressed... I think Spider-Man & The Secret Wars or something like that.

The Strangest Super-Heroes Of Them All!

Tonight we finished X-Men #1, and Magneto flipped out when he met the X-Men. They fought, and Magneto threw a rocket fuel tank at them, but they made an ice igloo and a tunnel to protect themselves.

In the end, the X-Men won, but Magneto escaped to his secret underground lab. I liked the end of the story, my favorite part was the tunnel one.

Regards to all my blog readers!

Magneto Strikes!

If you're reading this, I think I'd like you to keep reading my blog. Today my dad and I read the second part of X-Men #1 (he's still got a sore throat, so he can't read the whole thing in one sitting). In this part, a new girl arrived at the X-Men's School, Marvel Girl, she's very beautiful, with a blue cardigan, and two gloves. Her power is telekinesis, that means she can move stuff with her mind.

The Professor explained that there's good and bad mutants, and right after that, we saw one of the bad ones. Magneto attacked a military base, making all the weapons and tanks move alone, and wrote his name in the sky with magnetized dust. That's his power, magnetism. He captured all the soldiers, and claimed the military base as his own. TO BE CONTINUED!

This was fun, I liked watching Magneto attack the base. Magneto's my dad's favorite character... he just told me that's why he uses the name MaGnUs. Turns out Magneto's not actually bad, he just does wrong stuff sometimes... like me, when I misbehave.

Bye bye!

First Post! First Mutants!

Welcome to my blog, I'm Professor Dinosaur, and I'm five years old. I live in Uruguay, and I like comics, like my dad, MaGnUs. We've read some comics together before, but now we decided to start this blog, and talk about the comics we're going to be reading every day or so.

Tonight we read the first part of (Uncanny) X-Men #1, from 1963. That's the year my uncle Daniel was born... my mom and dad weren't born yet! Dad read some parts in English so I could practice, but he only read a few pages of the comic because his voice got tired.

Let me tell you about the story: Professor X calls the X-Men with his telepathic powers; they're Cyclops, Iceman, Beast, and Angel. He calls them to train in the use of their powers, and they did good, but they stopped training because Profesor X had a telepathic vision that a taxi was arriving with a very beautiful new girl student. TO BE CONTINUED!

I liked the comic a lot, my favorite characters were Cyclops and Iceman; and my dad's was Beast. My favorite part is when Iceman's ice cube explodes in a million pieces.

Well, talk to you tomorrow,
Professor Dinosaur
