This thoughtful character study masquerading as an action team-up is just as superb as it when it first began, if not more so. Read Full Review
Sam Alexander getting his power back was worth the wait, and so was what we got out of Champions #9 too. This situation that the team now faces was perfect for the opportunity created to explore how this team can rise above what initially caused some of them to part ways. The heart put into this chapter was wonderful, and reminds us of what we will be missing from our Marvel books once this story concludes. Read Full Review
Towards the end of Champions #23, things look dire than ever. However, for the first time in a long time, there seems to be some hope on the horizon. While Mephisto's games may have splintered the team, the series of events to follow just might make them stronger than ever. Another fun issue in the books for Champions, and some interesting development with plenty of the OG members of the team. The approach showdown for the next issue should be an exciting one.

This issue of the Champions moves the whole volume toward a climax. It looks good and the seismic upheavals in the plot make dreadful sense. The scope is so wide and the developments are so rapid-fire, though, that there's little room to give anyone much of a distinctive voice. For a team as amply stocked with unique personalities as the Champions, that's a bit of a shame. Read Full Review
"I woke up this morning and had a epiphany. I say to myself-- Riri-girl you've be holdin' back in your ambitions... You're brillant and packin the best tech... So why no use that to it's full potentiel ? So i did. "
Albeit rushed due to this series’ abrupt cancellation, Champions 9 is still a serviceable penultimate issue. I love the focus on the big three of Kamala, Miles, and Sam, and this issue gets extra points for including a cameo of my boy Bruno. Unfortunately this series got dragged into War of the Realms early and never got a chance to fully develop, but I have no doubt Zub and Cummings were crafting an absolute classic. I’ll be sad to see this series go next issue
A solid issue, although you can tell the looming cancellation is coming.
I didn’t really love the dialogue, I feel like the idea is cool though.
