Did you see the cover? Yeah, this is issue was going to be something special and it was. The issue did a tremendous job of reminding me that everything is f*cked up. The parts with the Red Skull are absolutely terrifying. He is such a maniac and yet he can appear very sophisticated. Like previous issues this one delivers when it comes to the violence. Millar has fun with the world he has created as this wild ride continues. Mcniven’s  art is on par with the earlier issues, but truly shines with the last few pages.

While most people greatly anticipate these issues, many are also quick to criticize the delays, what happened with the last issue, and the fact the conclusion will cost more. Overall I have been pleased with this and any minor bumps are dismissible. This story has been an exciting addition to my stacks. Also, I think it would be cool to see author creators play around with this grim future world Millar has created; just a fanboy thought.
