Really fun return to the world of Damage Control - where even the smallest misplaced memo can have universe ending consequences! The art is colorful and fun, and the writing works as a satire on both office culture and the Marvel universe. The concept itself is simple, but that's why it works so well: what if all the most tedious parts of office work really had life and death stakes? It's a fun book that carves out a nice comedy corner of the ol' 616, like The Office meets Nextwave: Agents of HATE.

The book continues to be a really fun/funny romp through the Marvel Universe/Corporate Ladder! Really fun how each issue pairs a different boring office job with a different cast of Marvel mainstays!

Trentonn the Terrible is one of the funniest monsters I've seen in a comic and is an instant favorite in my book! Though Gus may be the greatest villain of all. Love the Jersey jokes (as a New Yorker). Anyone looking for a laugh should definitely pick up Damage Control #3!

The romp through the Marvel Universe continues! In Issue #4 the clear message of the book becomes clear: the true supervillainy is crushing workplace mediocrity and the dangers of nepotism! The book continues in fun directions as we get a who's who of Marvel supervillain guest stars.

A satisfying conclusion to the series as the book's central message comes into focus: nepotism is a bigger danger than any form of cosmic supervillainy. A really fun satire of superhero worlds and of workplace shenanigans. Will definitely read it again - I hope we see Gus and the Damage Control gang again soon!
