Spiderman Reign was ok. It was too short I thought. The story was so brief. TDKR was fleshed out so much more and had so much depth and backstory. Reign happened so quick it was hard to really buy into all that was happening because I hardly got any idea of what it was like and then boom Peter's back in his spidey costume at age 60.
I don't regret buying it but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it.
I had bought Witchblade Origins vol 1 but had to return it because the glue in the binding was defective and the pages were falling out.
I got Wolverine: Get Mystique instead and liked it. Just a neat 3 or 4 issue story on Wolvy and Mystique's history. I didn't know the backstory about the Messiah Complex betrayal of the X-Men by Mystique but it didn't really matter. All you need to know is that Wolverine is pissed and Mystique is a bitch.
I also got Earth X and am on the 3rd issue. It is fantastic so far. I'm sure there are tons of references that I'm not picking up on but the story is great and I have passable knowledge of most of the major players.
