Unexpected yet believable (in its own way) and engrossing far more than the cover & previous reviews led me to believe ( ) Behold the visions. They're the family next door, yet they harness the power to destroy the world. What could go wrong? This is one of the best Marvel series of the past 10 years for a reason. Tom King’s Vision is literary sci-fi, and it's dark and satirical. It's suburban horror. It's also a heartbreaking drama that contains sharp commentary on race and humanity, life and death, but in a Marvel super hero comic. In terms of themes, it reminded me of God Loves, Man Kills or Jordan Peele's Get Out. It's extraordinary. I'm looking forward to reading volume 2. The Vision #1 is a graphic novel about an android called Vision. This android, sometimes called a "synthezoid," was built by the villainous robot Ultron created by Hank Pym. Originally intended to act as Ultron's son and destroy the Avengers, Vision instead turned on his creator and joined the Avengers to fight for the forces of good. Part 1 collects the comic series 1 through 5 and was published in 2015 by Marvel. The Vision wants to be human so he goes to the laboratory where he was created and he builds a family. There is his wife, Virginia and two twin teens Viv and Vin who look like him. They also have his powers and share his ambition to be ordinary. However, they have the power to kill. Ordinary, huh? I found it amusing that this family always flew to wherever they were going. If they wanted to be ordinary they should have walked or drove a car. However, the kids flew through the air in order to get to school and, yes, they were seen in the air by students. It was also pretty amusing to see the kids try to learn the subjects everyone has to take in high school. Virginia would quiz them daily to ensure that they were doing well. Their power to kill, though, could not be turned off and we see Virginia and the twins use their powers of force when they were threatened. This was a fun story so I will be getting the subsequent novels. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

The Vision wants to be human, and what's more human than family? So he heads back to the beginning, to the laboratory where Ultron created him and molded him into a weapon. The place where he first rebelled against his given destiny, and imagined he could be more - that he could be a man. There, he builds them. A wife, Virginia. Two teenage twins, Viv and Vin. They look like him. They have his powers. They share his grandest ambition (or is that obsession?): the unrelenting need to be ordinary. Behold the Visions! They're the family next door, and they have the power to kill us all. What could possibly go wrong? Artificial hearts will be broken, bodies will not stay buried, the truth will not remain hidden, and the Vision will never be the same. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
