  This series has been an unexpected hit, and definitely worth picking up in collected form if you haven't been buying it already -- without giving away the ending, there's plenty of room for a follow-up. Marvel would be mad not to commission one. It's the best superhero action movie never made -- and as we know, good superhero movies should always come back with an even better a sequel.

  McCann leaves his heroes at a new crossroads and with plenty of potential for future stories. Whether those stories are picked up in a follow-up project or just in the pages of New Avengers, I hope to see more of the duo. I'm always up for a story that can offer compelling drama and a healthy dose of action without taking itself too seriously. Regardless of what happens with these characters, I think both McCann and Lopez have proven themselves to be creators worth watching. Read Full Review

  If the goal of this book was to reintroduce Mockingbird to readers and give some meaning to her relationship with Hawkeye in the present-day Marvel Universe, then it's achieved what it set out to do. I'll be interested to see whether the characters' new status quo at the end of the series will be reprised for further adventures, either in the pages of New Avengers or in another dedicated miniseries or one-shot. There's certainly a lot of potential here either way. Read Full Review

  Not a bad issue, the biggest problem is figuring out where the hell this fits in New Avengers continuity, especially since this costume is head and shoulders above the one Bobbi wears in that title. Read Full Review

  I like Lopezs work. He draws beautiful women. Without his contribution, this series would not have been so strong. Its rather unfortunate that the plot was weak this issue, giving him less material to work with. But I really like how he redesigned Mocking Bird. Other artists should use her new costume.

  A solid finish to the miniseries that did a good job explaining how Mockingbird came back, what her state of mind was and set up a new status quo for both her and Hawkeye that I hope gets followed up on by McCann in the future. Read Full Review
