Killed In Action, Part 1 of 4: Fresh Meat
I thought that this issue was a good read. The suspence of who actually died leaves you speechless. The only thing I did not like it was a simple mistake of the writers. On page ten, Stature states that her father Scott Lang fought the Taskmaster just once. Scott Lang as Ant-Man actually fought the Taskmaster four different times. The first time with the Avengers, second with just Hawkeye, the third with Spider-man, and lastly with a rag-tag team of Avengers. Over-all a good read. The whole MVP status is not a new twist for comics. Cloning is not a new subject in comics, but more than one is a mind- boggle.
