Saga can never be overrated...any superlatives that are being said about it are well deserved.
I do agree on Ms Marvel though. It was an OK read but it isn't anything special.

wonder woman was great. The first's veiny power is.... weird.
I liked DareDevil. It makes me want to go back and read the last run. I DON"T like seeing wack future movie references in EVERY DAMN THING though.
I'm happy to have Gravel back... but I wish Warren Ellis were still writing it. Art's kind of sloppy too. Eh
X-Men.... The Sisterhood is/was heavy as shyt. World class team of team wrecking threats. They got broken apart so easily....
God is Dead went sort of.... left.
Nothing else this week really held my interest.

John Byrne Describes Marvel's Casual Racism In The Seventies
We're not talking Luke Cage's "Sweet Christmas" exclamations here. But in a discussion on the Byrne Robotics board about offense in comics, starting with the rejection by DC of the previously-approved Swamp Thing #88, John Byrne gave his recollection of Marvel offices back in the day.
I have commented before, on more than one occasion, that some of the current "generation", so eager to take offense at everything and anything, would suffer a severe case of exploding headitis, if they could time travel back to Marvel in the Seventies. Then the thinking was informed almost entirely by the eternally non-PC NATIONAL LAMPOON, and it seemed that no one could ever really be offended by things that were so totally off the wall -- so utterly and deliberately extreme. Some example (and watch these get ME in trouble now!):
? It was the habit in the Office to refer to CAPTAIN AMERICA AND THE FALCON as "Captain America and the Fowl c00n".
? Black Goliath was frequently referred to as "The Big Nig".
? One writer expressed his desire to do a Black Goliath story titled "The Jig is Up".
? Another wanted to put the credit names on furniture on the opening splash of an issue he scripted, so the name of a Jewish member of the team could be lettered on a lampshade.
? And, of course, the various examples of "fukk", "shyt", and other such words worked into backgrounds are infamous.
And if there was anyone who didn't think these were "funny", they sure didn't say anything about it at the time!*
@Marvel's so called 'progressive' mentality when they were racists as fukk back in the day.
