This is one of those series that I really want to like. It started out as one of those undiscovered gems that nobody was buying but everybody should. But the problems I had with this book have been for the past several issues.

Hulkverine embarasses the hero squad by steamrollering them thoroughly.

And come to think, snarking on the edges while big gristlebody boys slam into each other like rutting moose … Domino ain't come all that far since her Liefeldian origins, has she? The art is mostly decent with occasional disappointments, but this issue's s more
