Yeah, still digging it. That's really worth reading.

Id challenge anyone not to be attracted by this artwork which alone would be enough to sell the first issue of this book. However, its also nice to see Bendis subversive and political sensibilities rise to the fore after a more muted showing in Ultimate Six. Hopefully with the advantage of a more mature storyline and intended readership this element will remain centre stage, paving the way for an outstanding fusion of good writing and great art.

Actually, that's an awesome start for the story. Not much is revealed yet, but there's enough info to start think about the reasons of what is happening.

Bendis here is quite nice too. You know, that this guy writes either bullshit or masterpieces. And that's pretty much more like a masterpiece to me. Yeah, for the first issue of run that was awesome. Can't imagine it being better, then it's 10. Of course, there wasn't much action, but this limited series will show you much action later.
P.S. I hate politics. Diplomacy sucks.
