WILL THE REAL WONDER MAN PLEASE STAND UP?
• KILLERWATT is the first reformed* villain in a work-release program built by Tony Stark for his West Coast Avengers team, but he still needs some work to soften those rough edges.
• What better way to gain the public's trust than by taking on a revered Avengers legacy name like WONDER MAN?!
• Only one problem: SIMON WILLIAMS, the REAL WONDER MAN, is still alive and kickin'!
• *He's doing his best, and his best ain't that great.

I loved this issue. It doesn't hurt that one of my favorite, and most underrated, Avengers is back in Wonder Man. However, the emotion and action on display in this book is what really made it soar. With an amazing story, wonderful art, and the promise of what is to come West Coast Avengers is a must read! Read Full Review
West Coast Avengers #7 promises to be a fun and engaging read, blending humor with classic superhero action. Duggan's handling of the characters and the potentially absurd situation should provide plenty of entertainment, while also exploring some deeper themes about identity, redemption, and what it means to be a hero.

Overall, West Coast Avengers #7 does a great job at getting us to care even more about its best character: Killerwatt. This, combined with a fun subversion of expectationsplus a wild Ultron v. Ultron fight sequencemakes for a pretty enjoyable issue, so long as you can overlook the iffy art and the way the narrative skips over what could've been a really great scene. Read Full Review
I really don't know what to make of this comic. The Blue Bolt/Killerwatt origin story is appreciated, but how fricking stupid is this team? Deciding to pay BB's dad a visit after receiving Spider Woman's emergency call is just idiotic - or bad writing.
