Dec 07, 2021This issue somehow both feels interesting and brings the ongoing story to a halt, making for one of Busiek's trademark deep dives into the supervillain psyche. It's worth it to see the expert continuity-knitting in action. Read Full Review

I admit, taking a whole issue to do backstory and villain intro is a daring move. This title already has focus and pace problems, and this digression doesn't help with those. But it's done so dang well! World-building conducted through a strong character POV might be Kurt Busiek's signature skill, and this is an excellent example. This really fleshes out Lotus and Siancong, two vital puzzle pieces needed to bring the story together in the future. Plus, this issue does a lot to make Siancong more than a cheap Vietnam analogue -- a job that's desperately needed doing since Marvel introduced the country.

This one is a bit of a hiccup, I think. It's all backstory, and it's competent. But it's not very interesting.
