All this and Shang-Chi, too! What's not to like? Read Full Review

In short, this is a blistering, well-staged opener to the "Eyes of the Dragon" arc. It's everything you'd want from Secret Avengers and everything you'd expect from two top talents like Ed Brubaker and Mike Deodato. Even if you weren't completely sold with the first four or five issues, I'd urge you to check this one out before completely passing judgment on the series as a whole. Read Full Review

This arc is much more espionage than the first arc turned out to be. Even with the mystic setting, through actions and voice Brubaker is finally making this title what it should be: Rogers and whoever he needs sneaking in and getting the job done. Oh, and Shang-Chi gets a shirt, it's all going on here. This issue is a great set up for a spy tale that's bringing many genres into play, which many great spies always did. It's a break-neck, dynamic lift off and plain old school fun throughout. Read Full Review

We're experiencing the era of the Avengers, now - - a reign as powerful as the X-Men's was in the 90s. While I have some issues with how this differs from all the other titles under the "A" banner, it's still a sharp book, and I suppose my criticism doesn't hold as much ground when I consider how good X-Factor was when it started (even though it was basically "X-Men with other characters" then.)

From this one issue, Im not sure if this arc of Secret Avengers will be as good as the first, but it certainly has the potential. Brubaker needs to add some more meat to the book and focus more on the team itself. If he can do this, then readers will continue to be able to enjoy the crazy-imaginative ideas of Ed Brubaker and the awesomely stylized art of Mike Deodato. However, if this doesnt happen, the series might head into an unfortunate downslide and be usurped by Avengers Academy as the best of the Heroic Age Avengers books. I dont want to see this happen so hears hoping for some more content and characters in issue #7. Read Full Review
