So what do you do after kicking the crap out of the New Avengers? Songbird has to face some tough decisions when the T-Bolts' new "handlers" demand that her team jump through ever-nastier hoops. Meanwhile, what's the deal with MACH IV and Blizzard's new team? Where has Swordsman been hiding since the Purple Man went down? And what does Joystick do when she's recruited by the greatest game-player in the entire universe?
Not a bad effort and not a bad lead-in to the second part. But, this book needs to deliver more in terms of story and impact if its going to make up for a lack of big-name, A-list characters (and NO, that does not mean I want Wolverine on the team, Marvel!). Read Full Review

It's just ponderous getting to the point at which the story proper begins. Read Full Review
