In the heart of the Civil War event, a human story unfolds. A S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, doing his best to do the job with honor - but is that possible anymore? A young, low-level super hero, trying to help his neighbors - but that's not even legal any more. The two come together in a story that'll test their commitment, ideals, hopes and dreams, by Hugo-Award-winning writer Saladin Ahmed (Miles Morales: Spider-Man, The Magnificent Ms. Marvel) and artist Ryan Kelley (Lucifer, Stranger Things). Featuring Captain America, Giant-Man, Maria Hill and more.

MARVELS SNAPSHOTS: CIVIL WAR #1 is one of the strongest issues in the Snapshots series by taking a successful event and finding an interesting story within the story. The writing is excellent from front to back and the art team is the icing on the cake. This is a highly recommended issue. Read Full Review
When all is said and done Marvel Snapshots: Civil War #1tells an impactful tale about thinking for ones self and not just going with the program. How reasonable people can find themselves in a place that, on the surface, should be good but isnt. And reminds us of what we are responsible for in such a situation. Read Full Review
Civil War: Marvels Snapshots #1 is a new take on the "anyone can be a hero" mantra, and it's one that would make Captain America proud. Read Full Review
Getting inside the ethical struggle of a fascist does less to humanize the rare ones who do right but instead demonizes the support structure that lets so many do wrong. Read Full Review
A flawed central metaphor coupled with a misreading of its own main thesis, but still a valuable intellectual contribution to the discourse. Read Full Review
It was good for what it was. Nothing bad here and pretty standard for the quality weve been getting from this series overall
This was fine. An improvement upon the last few issues, in my opinion.
