In the wake of the Stamford Disaster, the public cries out for Super Hero Registration. Are the costumed heroes of the Marvel Universe protectors or ticking time bombs? Find out here when Spider-Man has his say.
This is definitely a series that provides different views of the "Civil War," and the combination between the stories does have a nice literary quality. After you put the book down, it forces you to think about war and what it does to people. It makes the other Civil War tie-ins stronger, because it makes you re-read some other books like Amazing Spider-Man, Wolverine or New Avengers again trying to discover new views and angles, trying to figure out whats right and wrong. What is good or evil? Philosophical questions which arent easy to answer. Paul Jenkins is writing this book with great enthusiasm, making the whole Civil War saga something not to be missed.
