I haven't read these books in a while, but I remember having a big problem with these men in black suits. The whole idea to me was not good, but that is all I can remember.

As cax's post verifies, many on is consider the Men In Black a bad story in the Visitor. Personally, I can see how they fit in the story, but I agree that they don't belong in a "realistic" universe like Valiant's. However, Visitor was trying to step away from Valiant's realism and be another superhero book, so I was able to follow it.

Visitor chases after a UFO, and doesn't. Major Benson becomes a big player in this story as well. The MIB kidnap a woman from a diner near Area 51. Vis tries to stop, but gets his @$$ kicked. Major Benson rolls up to talk to Vis, Vis calls him a loser and stupid (pretty much :P ) and the MIB kidnap Benson while kicking the Vis's @$$ again. Vis ends up being framed for Benson's disappearance, and we're left with a cliffhanger again.

Ok start, 3/5
