The Yarnham-esque Arkham City in the first story was fantastic. Other stories were good to servicable.

This was a great issue, setting up an interesting new status quo for Bucky. This book was dominated by wonderfully illustrated 2-page spread fight scenes, with some great interactions between Cap and Bucky interspersed.

Ryan North starts his run off strong with a fun, Groundhog Day inspired story focused on Ben Grimm and Alicia Masters. There were some really strong emotional beats, great art, and fun writing. Looking forward to the rest of the run!

Cory Smith absolutely kills it with the art in this series - there's so much horror inspiration, especially body horror. Not much happens to move the story forward much though, which is a bummer because everything coming down the pipeline with Exhaust (please someone arrest me for this pun) is really exciting.

There's enough here to keep me reading further issues, but nothing stands out with this issue.

All of the revelations here just feel like Wells working backwards from an editorial directive.

I'm pretty disappointed with the ending here. The premise and start of the story had a lot of promise but nothing ever really felt like it delivered. Oh well, maybe we'll get some future stories in this setting.
