The end is nigh for Secret Warriors, and to kick start the final arc of the series we get what is essentially a one-shot following the character of Sebastian Druid following his dismissal from the team. It’s a character piece more than anything else and Jonathan Hickman demonstrates his skill at developing a character just as well as he develops complex ideas for his other series. By the end of the issue, Druid is a changed man and Hickman shows this, subtly through his mannerisms and dialogue. The artwork by Alessandro Vitti is a good fit for this book, but the style does feel off-putting at times; character designs and action sequences are solid, but static moments and conversational moments feel bland and uninviting. As a whole, though, the book delivers and is a sign that Hickman truly has a tight grasp on what he’s doing within the Marvel Universe.
