I still can't believe this is an Orlando book. Usually, I don't like what he writes, especially with recent comics like Marauders, but this has been stellar so far. Not much happens, but it doesn't need to. The style, the way Wanda is written, the supporting characters, and the way it delves into Wanda's past looking for a brighter future is just perfect. And this Hippolyta seems like a great adve more

This continues to be the best surprise of the year, and that continues to be in no small part because Pichelli is turning in some really amazing art, but it's also wonderful to see Orlando fulfill the promise that's been squandered in so many of his other titles.

Both Rogue & Binary's rescues were... MOVING, and INTENSE! Once again, a nice balance of the cast combined with some really cool CHARACTER MOMENTS for each of them. There's also just this inherent, synergistic chemistry between them all as a group, that makes it seem like they've been together for a lot longer than they have.

When this book was announced I didn't know what to expect. Between the ups and downs (more downs than ups) of Wanda Maximoff in the past 20 years and the writer being a wild card I was not sure about anything but has now become one of my favorite books at marvel right now.

Loved Lorna & Wanda collaborating with their powers in such complimentary fashion. Them working together as an almost singular, fused unit, just seems so natural.

The shrinking charm & linguistic enchantment to 'The Last Door' - COOL! And the *technology is evil* theme being carried on here, from the X-books, is a nice, connective thread I wasn't eXpectin' to see.
