    Weekly Comic Book Review - Danny Wall Jun 29, 2014

    In an effective character-driven piece focusing on a fast-becoming fan-favorite character, Avengers Undercover brings its premise to the fore to show how it creates conflict both internal and external. The art is competent but still a departure from Walker's signature touch on the series, and there are some subplots missing here, but the cliffhanger and its implications are great, as always.

    With how Avengers Undercover #6, anything can happen from there though nonetheless one course of action will be bad. We are left with Cammi's fate unknown, and know anothers' fate is up in the air as well. When their backs are up against the wall to pull this move off without getting caught, these are the kinds of situations they should find themselves in. Avengers Undercover continues to capture that inner struggle that young heroes go with because their futures are always up in the air. Read Full Review

    So, this series is doing a fantastic job of keeping you guessing who will become the super villain by the end of it. Read Full Review

    Comic Vine - Gregg Katzman Jun 25, 2014

    This standalone issue about Death Locket does an effective job giving us a look inside her head and, in turn, gives us a stronger connection to the character. Even though we all know Death Locket can't kill Captain America (that would create just a few continuity issues, no?), Hopeless does a good job making the situation a gripping conflict for her. We know she won't pull the trigger and that'll be the end of Steve Rogers, but will she try and take the shot? I was legitimately glued to these pages to see what would happen next and overall, I was mostly pleased with how that situation went down. Sure, it's very odd that she now looks way older and the conclusion felt way too drastic, but it's still a thoroughly enjoyable read which captured my interest and gave me a better understanding of Death Locket.

    IGN - Jesse Schedeen Jun 26, 2014

    The real problem, however, is that we now know this series is ending with issue #10. There seems little chance of Undercover reaching a satisfying conclusion by then. Read Full Review

    Timothy Green II does a good job filling in for Kev Walker. My only criticism is that Death Locket looks a little too old. Otherwise, another amazing issue. These characters feel so real, I think I'm in love! But wait, you're leaving in September? No! You can't do this to me, our relationship barely had a chance to blossom! I thought we had something special!!

    Amazing issue again for Avengers Undercover but I just cant over the difference between AA Death Locket and AU Death Locket. The characterization of her is great but the art makes it seem like she’s 21 instead of 11

    Yet another very good issue, but Timothy Green's art doesn't reach the same heights as Kev Walker's. Particularly weird is the way he draws Death Locket, who appears to be much older than she actually is.

    I'm truely saddened by this books cancellation coming in September. But this issue proves we've still got some turns left before it's over.

    This issue just did not live up to the standard of previous ones. The art was way off. Green was good on Arena but this one is very sloppy. Arena is a great concept that needs to be revisited every 16 months to 2 years. Undercover is a concept that NEVER needs to be revisited again.
