WRITING:

This issue continues the joyride we were on last issue. Marc Guggenheim does an incredible job with creating such an entertaining story. The action hits and fires on all cylinders, well the humor is second to none. But the real ace of the story is the wild reveals we get from Earth-4587. Guggenheim using a S.H.I.E.L.D stand in led by Doctor Doom wasn’t on anyone’s BINGO card, that’s for sure. The story is really good and strong, but it’s also equally awesome to have a series that puts fun and entertainment up front like this series does.

ARTWORK:

The artwork featured in this issue is especially noteworthy, successfully conveying the distinct mood of this alternate universe. Gerardo Sandoval & Victor Nava do an exceptional job animating this new world, with their detailed depictions of its unique environments and inhabitants. A standout aspect of Their art is their innovative approach to character design, particularly when illustrating this Earth's versions of the Revengers and S.C.Y.T.H.E. Enhancing the drawings, Brian Reber’s coloring aligns seamlessly with both the mood and energy of the visual storytelling. The vibrant and lively palette makes each page captivating, further energizing the action as it jumps from the panels.
