I'll admit that I still find the quick paced nature of this book jarring since there's so much opportunity to dig into things, but part of me just is secretly hoping that Soule will put all that expansion and in-depth look at the workings of the series into novel form so we can really sink our teeth into it. That said, a two issue "arc" dealing with what happened to Black Bolt after the Terrigen bomb incident is intriguing in its own right and it looks like we've unlocked a few new things along the way. Frank is definitely a great addition, one I hope gets used well going forward, and it was nice to see Gabby again briefly as well as Dante. For me, the seller is watching Maximus and his way of doing things while being very curious about what Black Bolt will be up to next. Read Full Review

In conclusion, this is a very entertaining issue. I've loved this series from the start, but I'd have to say this was my favourite issue. It wasn't anything incredibly special, but it was the most entertaining of the 8 issues out so far. Read Full Review

Charles Soule has spent a fair amount of time building his characters and their world, and in issue #8 said characterization begins to pay dividends. We're finally starting to see the book's many pieces come into play, and while the larger narrative is still a bit too loose for its own good, Soule's engaging script and solid character work prove enough to continue vested interest.
