Story
The Iron Nail and Dr. Mindbubble have taken control over
Maria Hill and it’s all up to Captain America to stop them.
The Good
Dr. Mindbubble is still wreaking havoc and the repercussions
of SHIELD are really having an affect especially on Maria Hill. Seeing her
being controlled is really bothering her emotionally and physically. I wonder how
she will do after all this. I’m also interested in what Dr. Mindbubble is
planning what to do with Cap. We also get to learn more about Iron Nail’s
motives and why he is doing this and so far it sounds interesting.
The Bad
Yep, the art still doesn’t improve much here. It doesn’t
hold the story really well. They are still less detailed and it only looks good
on the double page spreads. Many of the face expressions look very flat and
sort of weird. It also doesn’t give much effect on the characters. The action only
that looks good is Iron Nail vs Cap while the others feel dead. Even though,
Iron Nail did improve a bit in this issue, he still has a bad habit of using
Dr. Mindbubble to his advantage and since he can’t get the job done alone, it
cheapens his character down. I am also surprised about all of this destruction
going on with SHIELD and somehow heroes like the Avengers or Black Widow isn’t
involved.
Verdict
I give this issue a 3.5/7.5 out of 5/10 stars. Yes, once
again it gets this score, because sadly the story doesn’t improve much more
than that. The story’s overall effect is still the same. Dr. Mindbubble is
still tearing SHIELD down and it’s having an emotional effect on Hill which,
seeing that is pretty good. The art is still very flat, but it does make a
pretty good action scene with Iron Nail and Captain America. It’s nice to know
Iron Nail motives, but I hope the next issue will make him more interesting. I
also feel strange that The Avengers aren’t involved in war against SHIELD. Even
though, this story hasn’t improve to a higher level, I suggest you still get it
because seeing the repercussions is awesome and you going to wonder how Captain
America will be affect in the next issue.
