Original Sin

Writer: Jason Aaron
Artist: Mike Dedato
Publisher: Marvel

Original Sin was Marvel's big story for the summer. It tells the story of Uatu the Watcher being murdered and Nick Fury and the Avengers trying to figure out who did it. A lot comes out of this story like why Thor is no longer worthy,  a new character in the world of Spider Man it was just a lot of crazy things. Jason Aaron is one of my favorite writers today. The way he tells a story just makes you interested most of the time. His run on Thor: God of Thunder is just awesome he makes you feel like a Crack head waiting for your next fix. Unfortunately it didn't happen with this story. I think maybe it had to do with working with all the tie-in issues that come with this story line. When you have too many hands in the pot the food never comes out as good. The story isn't bad is just not as good as his usual work. You can pretty much guess  who did it after issue 2 and you would probably be right. They try and throw curves at you to get you confused but if you can't figure it out than you need more help than I can give you. The art is great very dark and gritty much like the story. The climax of the story isn't even the last issue it's in issue 7, that's where the story plots that are gonna continue on after Original Sin happen.

VERDICT-☆☆☆
I think this was more of a setup for what's next than a major event. all you pretty much have to read is #1 and #7
