Reptil Brink of Extinction
This finally came in! After watching the Super Hero Squad show with my partner, I wanted to see what they decided to do with Reptil in the main Marvel universe so I got this. It starts with a brief summary of Reptil's entire history before his solo book and does a good job stablishing everything you need to know and he back of this collected edition also includes the one-shot where he first appeared (Which I recommend reading first) so you have everything to enjoy this story to its fullest extent.
So, is it good? It's fine. I can say that for me it was fine, I like how it explores the latino immigrant experience in the US, with one of Reptil's cousin even learning magic because people still discriminate against third generation born in America and doesn't feel safe, it has a good portrait of how latino culture can be machista and it portrays the community they live in very well too. But the superhero part of it wasn't that great.
The comic plays a lot with the stablished lore of Reptil, and introduces a villain that connects with his powers and the disappearance of his parents (It's not a spoiler, it's revealed in the first issue), but it never does anything very original with that, opting instead for a generic bad guy with bland motivations and almost no screen time to focus more in the characters themselves and their relationships.
You can't do much with 4 issues, so the creative team did what they could and decided to focus on what they thought was more important and I get it, but with the relationship his past has with the villain and his powers, that not being the focus ends up making this comic feeling like half a story. There is a character arc in here for Reptil too about his powers, but it gets resolves very fast because it didn't have time to flesh that out.
It has ideas, fun characters, and a lot of potential for future stories but right now it's nothing more than interesting ideas in a very simplistic plot. Still, it's fine enough for a mini-series and if you're interested in the character, it won't do any harm to read it.

A pumpkin, if you please! This week, Peaches and Michael are taking a trip to the dark side of the rainbow in celebration of 1985’s RETURN TO OZ! In addition to discussing this unlikely sequel’s gateway horror leanings, our hosts delve into the many queer allusions of Dorothy Gale’s travels. Joining the conversation is award-winning author and illustrator Terry Blas, whose love of the character Tik-Tok has become a crucial part of his cult devotion. Then, acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Wesley Moore stops by to dig into the fact the spookiness is what makes this particular vision of Oz so uniquely special. From Mombi’s heads to an understated Piper Laurie, this episode has it all! Go!
