The lockjaw story was fun, but short and mostly fluff. Deathlok was a solid story, and the art gave great mood. I hadn't read Young Avengers in a while so I'm really put off by Prodigy especially, but overall it wasn't too bad when it wasn't trying too hard. |

Not a bad book, and worth a look. But the whole Summer's brothers bit was bizarre, and so far seems a really poor plot choice in my opinion. |

I really would have liked to seen more of 48 years later, but we learn absolutely nothing about it. The story does move forward though, not really clear what it's motion forward actually means as it's all cryptic future talk. But it's early in the story line, nothing wrong with unanswered questions. |

The art doesn't blow me away, but it's not bad by any means. The story it's self is a nice one and done setting up a handful of potential plots and sub plots, always good for a first issue. It's funny, it's got pretty good pacing, and some a solid foundation of characterization for major players. A fun issue, and I will be back. (Also in case you didn't read the solicit 2099 isn't the setting, as he has been dumped in the present back in Superior Spiderman) |

I didn't enjoy this issue as much as I usually enjoy this series. It's not bad, but it's missing some of the charm with all the set up. Still whats set up here promises to be fun. |

This series is always fun. The art had some really wonky angles that were jarring, but was generally good. A lot happens in the issue, but nothing seems rushed, and the issue leaves me wanting to know where this is all going. |

This isn't so much the end of the first story arch as it is the foundation for the status quo of the series. We finally start living up to the name Avengers Undercover. A lot of very interesting pieces are put into play that can go all sorts of ways. |

I'm truely saddened by this books cancellation coming in September. But this issue proves we've still got some turns left before it's over. |

I never much cared for Falcon, and only a little more now, but this issue made good use of him. Some interesting developments this issue, with a lot of potential. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes of the Ascendants. |

Even knowing what was coming didn't change the tension from the search. And the final development is great. |

This is a good series, and there is a lot of potential. It's a little slow as Soule puts the pieces on the board, but it looks to be building to a lot of political machinations alongside some standard super hero brawls. Unfortunately all of the delays makes the slow burn feel much slower. Hopefully once Stegman comes aboard we'll be on a faster release schedule. I love Madureira's art, but not enough to wait an extra month between every issue. |

The issue felt rushed, but there is a lot of ground to cover. And the ground covered seems to be heading to interesting places. |
