This is what comics are about -- twists and turns. Taking us to places we haven't been or can't go. Taking Steve Rogers and placing him into extraordinary situations is a good move on Remender's part. During this first arc he has taken the military stuff, the political intrigue, the super soldier and put it on the back burner. Here is Steve Rogers, the standout, standup American who never backed down from a bully. For me, it works like a charm.

All in all, a great issue for Chew. It does a great job of peeling back the silly side of the comic in general and exposing just how dark it is under the surface. Layman may also have a thing for cannibalism, but it makes for a great comic so more power to him.

There is an undercurrent to this story that I can't mention for the sake of spoilers, lets just say that Hank isn't motivated lightly to mess with the time space continuum. You know something big is going down for Hank act so drastically. Immonen does a great job of contrasting heroes old and heroes present. It's a great set up to what will hopefully be a fun run through the eyes of an idealistic, young X-Men.
