Aero. The Punisher. The Black Cat. Melinda May. The Terrible Tinkerer. And more. There's an aftermath in Manhattan, after the explosion in our first issue - and a crisis in the nation of Siancong as things go from bad to worse. And amid all that, meet Kevin Schumer, an ordinary guy with some big secrets...and see more of the mysterious Threadneedle and the role he'll play in our building epic. Marvel's most wide-ranging thriller continues, from Kurt (MARVELS) Busiek and Yildiray (X-MEN) Cinar. And you'll never guess where we go next.
Rated T
The Marvels slows things down a bit more in this second issue, but I think it's a wise decision. Read Full Review
I love Kurt Busiek comics
Man, Kurt Busiek knows how to play to my continuity fetish.
A spotlight on new guy Kevin Shumer gives this issue some welcome consistency, though cutaways show that the other "strands" of the story continue to develop. On balance, I liked this a lot. The art's solid, the ideas are compelling, and this issue answers just enough questions while holding on to a lot of mysteries. The prose didn't really thrill me, though, and I'm not at all sold on the "store-brand Gaiman meta-narrative goons" Ace and Threadneedle. I think this is a good series, but it hasn't landed a "fall in love" hook in me yet.
This looks like it's going to be huge and I like how all the stories are conected. Looking forward to the next.
Yeah this is an okay comic.
Its ok. I feel like I'm intrigued enough to see where it goes but, its nothing overly special.
