The Final Ascension Of The Adaptoids, Deathlok Legion, Sentinaughts, Ultravisions, And Machine People! Can The Secret Avengers Stop These Descendants From Carrying Out Contagious Robotic Evolution? A Dead Friend Returns! An Avenger Mortally Injured! A Spy In Their Midst! The Lighthouse Compromised! A New Race Is Born!
However, what I really like about this new direction is that Remender isn't going to let you get by with just glancing through the book. It's a deep story with lots of going on and the use of every character keeps the reader on his toes. It's challenging without being a chore. It's something that I look forward to reading again now that the arc is over to see if I can find even more in the story. That's not something I generally find myself excited to do right away after an arc. Read Full Review
Gabriel Hardman continues to deliver extremely angled panels surrounded by copious amounts of white space to emphasize the hard-hitting action. His pencils and Bettie Breitweiser's faded color palette combine to create a style reminiscent of the fast-paced action serials of days past. The Descendants are capable of some crazy powers, and Hardman displays them with sickening, visceral detail while avoiding any real gore. Best, he delivers one of the most chilling series of facial expressions that help sell the insidious twist at the end. Read Full Review
The only way "Secret Avengers" could be delivered more aptly would be if it was in dime store paperbacks next to Doc Savage. Your favorite B-list Marvel superheroes are all gathered for a strange tale with gorgeous art. This is a niche title and also one of the best in what it delivers. If you want a rich slathering of ideas across character moments then this is the cape title for you. Read Full Review
Rick Remender is a very talented writer. Not only does he create NEW characters and NEW villains; he also connects his worlds together; while also grounding it in Marvel's history. I have nothing but praise; and even though this arc began weaker than the rest of his work, it still ended on a high. I look forward to the return of the Descendants and the Masters of Evil; once "AvsX" concludes. Read Full Review
This issue wraps up the story arc, I really like the direction this title has taken. Hawkeye has proven himself as a competent leader and Captain Britain & Venom make fine additions to the team. Written by Rick Remender (Venom) & illustrated by Gabriel Hardman. Another cover by the very talented Art Adams (stop doing the covers and draw inside already). From Marvel Comics. The entire story arc gets a 4 star rating. Read Full Review
Wow this issue is worth your four bucks. Hopefully Remender can keep this up after Avengers vs X-Men
