The last thing Valentina "Val" Resnick Baker wants to be is a superhero, yet here she is in the jungle saving Fiona, the daughter of two close friends, from mercenaries of all things. Val may not want to be a superhero, but the universe sure is pushing her in that direction.
Theres so much to explore in Summit, that as a book it almost feels like a fusion reactor ready to blow in itself. My want is simply more time, more space dedicated to just about everything. Read Full Review
Summit still remains my favorite of the Catalyst Prime universe. It has great pacing and Val is a relatable hero to follow. My only knock against the book is that the story just isn't that fresh and my hope is to see some more crossover as these books develop. It is the moments of action that feel the most forced on the writing front. The big action of this comic was a superhero fighting two guys with guns in the Jungle, and I would like to see more scale and distinction to powers. Writing about Val as a superhero comes second to Val and the shadowy organization she is up against, or the ghost that haunts her, or the drama of why she should trust no one. I would love to see Amy Chu write a spy comic. Catalyst Prime as a universe is not quitmore
