Issue #35 is another strong effort from Matteo Scalera. Scalera is given ample opportunity to flex his stylistic muscles. The opening flashback is muted and and quiet, while other pages overflow with superhero action and robots of all shapes and sizes. But Scalera is perhaps strongest in the bizarre, grotesque realm of Earth-666. I would happily buy an ongoing series set on that planet if Scalera rendered it. But given how adeptly he's handled the Secret Avengers thus far, I suspect bigger things are in store for Scalera at Marvel. Read Full Review
Unfortunately there is only the first third of the book featuring Earth 666 which is a shame because those sequences have been the best part of Scaleras work. His Father at times has its problems, this is down to some dodgy facial expressions that dont make it clear at times as to whether his mouth is even open or not. That being said the rest of it is still to a high standard with his two page spreads and the attack on Avengers tower. Read Full Review
A lot of setup and important and interesting development dragged a little bit down with the inconsistent quality of the arts. Read Full Review
Secret Avengers isn't a “must-read” title, but it's certainly a ton of fun. It's trademark Remender, with great characters, wonky villains, and crazy plots. This issue expresses what this series is about, and sets up the finale, which, if I know Remender, will be a lot of fun to read. Read Full Review
"Secret Avengers" #35 is a great ramp for the audience to leap off and into the next issue. The character moments are pushed aside in order for villainous exposition and the end of this issue will make you want to come back next month. The art is spectacular, and so well fit to this storyline, and there are some great lines peppered throughout. This issue works well within the narrative structure, though could have been improved by having more heroic action instead of waiting for all the reaction to happen later. Read Full Review
