    Ghosts

    This story line is coming to an end.  It has been an interesting one so far with the past coming back to haunt Mockingbird.  
    We've got a some great story going, not just action.  There's a lot of interaction between the characters in this one.  Mockingbird really coming face to face with the past and trying to put them to rest... if that's possible.
    One of my favorite parts is the interaction between Hawkeye and Crossfire.  How he gets him tied up with his special arrows is classic.  It's interesting also how Hawkeye has to take a deep look at himself after what he does to Crossfire.  Some really deep thinking there.  Does he really like where he's at right now?  Does he want to keep on this path?
    I like how Mockingbird is back in the same position she's been in with Phantom Rider.  Does she let Phantom Rider die or save the person this time?  Good stuff.  This is the hero business, do you do what's right, or take revenge.
     
    I must say, this issue had me thinking a lot.  Really good writing and I enjoyed that immensely. 
    It had me reeled in until the last couple of pages.  I can't really say anything without spoiling it for anybody that wants to read this really good issue... but I'm not sure I liked how it ended.  That was the only drawback I could find.
    If you haven't started reading this title yet, I can suggest it.  If you aren't a fan of Hawkeye and Mockingbird yet, you will be after the first five issues of this comic.  Enjoy it!

      Hawkeye and Mockingbird finally corner their enemies and the desert and their disagreements about how severe an amount of force they should use might threaten to break their relationship up.  The Good Before anything else, I have to say that the scallop arrow that Hawkeye uses on Crossfire had to be the coolest, nasty trick I've probably ever seen in his arsenal. Seriously, I was going "Oooooooo" when he tangled the villain up with it... and that's rarely happened between me and a comic. I was ...

      The Good   The issue had a great starting with a face-off between Hawkeye&Mocking and Phantom Rider against Crossfire and Phantom Rider who has taken over Jamie slade. The action was good when hawkeye was fighting Crossfire and using some trick arrows. The Bad The bad part for me was that some of it was a bit predictable in some ways when certain characters had bad things happen to them  The Best-moment The best moment for me was when Hawkeye takes Crossfire's cybernetic eye out. Overall It ...
