SILVER AND BOLD Part 1 (OF 1)
After faking her own death, SILVER SABLE is back in the mercenary game, and this time she REALLY might not survive! In the wake of Norman Osborn's control of the Symkarian government, one of Sable's operations goes south, and she finds herself and a small group of hostages trapped in the clutches of a dangerous group of terrorists! With no equipment and no back up Sable has to make sure that she and the innocents trapped with her find their way out alive. Piece of cake.
Rated T+
Silver Sable and the Wild Pack #36 is a solid read. With a tight and energetic story, great pacing, and high-quality artwork, it delivers a great time for the audience. This one gets a recommendation. Pick it up. Read Full Review
There's not much of the Wild Pack, mostly just Silver Sable, but thats perfectly fine. This is easily the best Marvel Legacy one-shot. I wouldn't mind reading a monthly series, but with Nick Fury's recent failure to secure an audience it's not likely. Read Full Review
Well written, fast paced thrill ride. Read Full Review
There's nothing bad with this comic and there's nothing that makes it stand out either. It'd be great to see Silver Sable back in an ongoing way but if that happens, we need to see the bar raised a bit in how it's done. When there's so many solid options out there, why do anything less?

It has been over two decades since the last issue of Silver Sable, and she has changed in the interim. But that still doesn't account for how badly this issue mangles Sable's voice and persona. Read Full Review
Agreed with AiPT! - David Brooke. Exciting read.
A very fun one-shot
I had hoped when I picked up Power Pack that we would get an adventure that showed the team and how they were functioning now. It instead presented a recap on the characters so I expected about the same with this. To my surprise this actually featured an action filled tale about the character. It gave you an idea what the character was and what she was about through a story about Symkarian terrorist taking hostages in a 90's movie style. There is not much said about the fact that we last presumed Silver Sable was dead, except promotional material and the beginning excerpt explaining the faked death situation. That seems like a bit of a cheat, but it would not be the first time in comics. The art had a very 90's style as well that reflected more
What's Symkarian ? Wasn't that related to conan ?
Well that's said, I find it good. Not great, but good. Festival I find it to quick at the end. I think the writer can have made this one in two part, and that made a disappointing end. Shame because I really liked it until Silver Sable run to free the prisoners drawing.
The Shark as a bit to more and very useless for my point of view.
I would like to see more, a real chance to make a story properly.
Cover - Very nice, I didn't find the lenticular though. But why the "And the wild pack". She's alone in there. 1/2
Writing - 2/3
Arts - Well their is some issue. The blooded leg at first with a costume perfect, then rip off. The woman of the sisterhood who will more
Silver Sable runs into the Symkarian Supremacist Sisterhood while going about her usual mercenary business and stabby stabby kerblow kerblow ensues. These baddies are way too promising for a one-shot; Sable fighting the SSS should be at least a three-issue arc. The art by Paulo Sequeira & José Luís is great, and their character designs are a big part of what make the SSS compelling (in a "I want to see them get beat" way). Writer Christa Faust could use a hand fine-tuning her storytelling skills into the comics medium, though. She doesn't do a lot to make Sable unique or interesting here. The pacing and structure of the narrative are uneven. I could be down for a Silver Sable ongoing, but some veteran scripting support would be ideal.
