    Here we have the Secret Warriors.  They seem to really be the team that could take down Norman Osborn and his Dark Reign.  While they've been working towards Nick Fury's goals, it looks like the 'secret' might be out.
     

      
    I really think the secret is how good this comic is.  Despite the slight confusion between Dark Avengers and the last two issues here (along with Dark Reign - The List: Secret Warriors), I still enjoyed this comic.  Nick Fury is determined to do what he needs to do.  It seems the other teams out there are more focused on their own problems.  But now that the Secret Warriors are on Norman's radar, can they still be considered a 'secret.'  It should be interesting to see how they react to Fury's absence while he's running off on his own mission.  Because Nick wasn't there, they had to hightail it out of their hideout before it blew up.
     
    I expect we're going to see more big things in this series before Dark Reign ends.  I'm not sure what the team will do after that.  We've seen some seeds in the Leviathan in The List.  I'm really enjoying what Jonathan Hickman is doing with the team and Nick Fury.  The art by Alessandro Vitti is really nice to look at as well.  He's been doing a great job taking over from where Stefano Caselli left off in issue #6. 
     
     What are your thoughts on this series?  Do you think Nick can be the one to take down Norman or will he have his hands full with Leviathan?

    I gotta say this is one of the most incredible books I've read in a long time, this issue alone was pretty epic, the action would have been enough to sell me, but I love the story as well  , I do believe Nick is going to be the one to take down Osborn and bring Shield back full circle, either that or they both go out in a blaze of glory

    @Tyler Starke: The banjo music almost didn't make it in.  I didn't do a full scale Bullseye scene but then I figured I could still squeeze it in.

    ok i love the secret warriors  
    i have a few problems with god of war god of fear series tho 
    first when i found out this saga was coming i was really looking forward to seeing   
    Stefano Caselli drawing ares vs alex becaues i absolutly loved his art work for the original series 
    and while Alessandro Vitti is alright i was very disapointed with the art work  
    i mean some thaings are ok like ares and fury look great by vitti but all the female charicters look like crap 
    and alex just looks wrong  
    also i was reveileld in previw for next issue that yes this main continuity is contiuing from the ares god of war mini series witch i im really glad and that conection will be shown more in the up coming incredible hercules assault on mount oltmpus saga

    @G-Man: You said that Ares followed Jo-Jo and Alex, but that's Daisy.

    they are right, you review the books that people are going to buy any no matter what like X-men, and Batman books.  The reviews are great for the books that don't sell as much as those.

    Secret Warriors is a cracking comic that deserves more success. I heard it's not going to continue indefinitely though, anyone know anything about this? Anyway, reading back over parts 1 through 3 of this story shows just how good Hickman is, and I'm more and more impressed with Vitti's artwork too.

    The Secret Warriors/Howling Commandos plus the Avengers Resistance are clearly working towards taking Osborn down. Throw in the New and Mighty Avengers and you've got one huge party :D

     I think what makes Secret Warriors so good isn't just Nick Fury.  
    For me it's "rebirth" of Hydra, how Hickman has turned Nicks world upside-down (from issue #1) and that we finally get a glympse of where he's taking this book (The List: Secret Warriors)

    It would be cool if that took place in Seige but from what I read in an interview with  Hickman a while back, the book is going to step away from the Dark Reign stuff and focus on the man story.
