Slow Series Starts to Take Off |
|
*NO SPOILERS*
Bendis has been weaving this mini series in and out of many plots and time periods over the last 4 issues. It's been slow and sometimes confusing with seemingly no payoff. It isn't until this issue that the puzzle has started to come together, and the plot has started on its way. The real reason this issue stands out to me though, is for the death of two often forgotten and irrelevant characters in the Marvel (and Ultimate) Universe. In just a few pages you come to appreciate them due to Bendis' crafty writing and then WAM! It was inbeveiable but it hurts all the same. Just as grant Morrison made the death of Jonathan Kent heartbreaking all over again in All Star Superman #6, Bendis brings back the pain of characters often forgotten in only a few pages. This is the mark of many great writers in an industry of alternate universes and multiple continuities, and this is why this issue shines. I eagerly await the next issue.
