I thought this was going to be similar to the Indigenous one where we'd focus on a couple of diverse characters (somehow I thought this one was going to be about Black heroes, but no that's the third one) but there were so many stories in this 34 page comic - most of which were only a page or two. I liked them but I wished there had been fewer but longer stories.

I found this to be a bit middle of the road. I wish there was one overarching narrative rather than the short vignettes.

Great ideas, but so poorly put together and mediocre.

Not quite sure why the cover is what it is considering the stories inside. Most are meh. The Forge/Shuri one is good. Best one is the Spider-Man one from the viewpoint of the spider.

I think that the idea of this new series is much better than the execution. The world of comics hasn't always been diverse (and I don't just mean in terms of race). Marvel is doing the right thing in attempting to highlight voices of different creators. This specifically focuses on the art/writing of BIPOC comic creators. There were names that I was familiar with and others that were new to me. A few of the stories were enjoyable; however, they tried to do way too much with this single issue. There were to many stories with many just being one page with 5 or 6 panels. A lot of the stories ended up being confusing/didn't make sense because we had no context. I think that they would have been better off by creating an issue that focused on maybe 2 or 3 stories and build from there. I'm hoping that they improve in the next issues to come because it's a great idea, but like I said before the execution was not done well.

Well, it's free, so... It's just a oneshot featuring a variety of one page vignettes and a few longer stories. Very much a mixed bag. It may or may not make more sense if you follow the podcast, which I do not.
