    The one area Reed does succeed in this issue is with the Spider-Man/Ms. Marvel relationship. These two play extremely well off one another, and Ms. Marvel has been the main book to showcase that dynamic. The duo have a charming scene together where they share a New York lunch on a rooftop. These pages proved the most enjoyable of the issue by far. It's a shame Reed had to ruin them with an extremely hokey ending. I give him credit for trying to close the series on the same note he began it, but I'm truly hard-pressed to imagine a more cornball way of sending off Carol. Worse, the happy ending doesn't feel deserved. The issue and the series alike reach a rather anticlimactic finish. Carol has always had a spotty record when it comes to supporting her own books, and I suppose fans should be grateful this book lasted as long as it did. Still, for a heroine that set out to seize the world and hold it, her reach far exceeded her grasp. Read Full Review

    Also, there's a backup featuring the new generic superhero version of Grant Morrison's Marvel Boy with the added complication of time travel. This is another character who's lost anything in the way of an interesting voice. I'm curious as to where his bland new stories will appear next. Read Full Review
