The Bottom Line: While I really appreciate the appearance of the Scarlet Witch, and the resultant focus on Polaris, I feel like I miss some of the momentum that was building with the other subplots, and continue to want more balance in that respect. The characters are strong, the voices sharp and witty, but they become too isolated in their own whirling subplots, crowding out any overarching plot and even the other subplots, too. The art has only a few truly winning moments, being too scratchy and uneven overall. The cliffhanger is intriguing, and promises to bring certain things to a head that I wondered would be addressed at all. Read Full Review

I thought the overall series is moving in the right direction but felt this issue was nowhere near the quality that Peter David has the capacity to produce but had enough good moments to make it enjoyable.
