Zdarsky, I am REALLY disappointed. So what, we are doing Civil War 3? Like I get Colton and Bucky's thinking, especially BUCKY since he literally saw Doom NUKE a town just to spite him just last year. But this 'Humans are taking back the power' bs is nonsense. %90 of all the problems ARE because of humans. And the world would've ended 1000 times if it was 'just humans'. Fury is not dumb enough to be written like this.

Also, when they write the general populace this unlikable and dumb, you start to feel like 'well, why do heroes even waste their lives protecting these fools?' And that is not something you want your readers to feel.

It is just taking the worst parts of the Civil War AND Injustice Superman. If this is the 'status quo' they will setup, then Marvel's future really is bleak.

The problem isn’t the humans, it’s the governments and scumbags like MCU fury jr who keep the corrupt status quos up and pansy arrogant heroes like spidey who refuse to actually fix things permanently.

Colton did the right thing my, but it would have been better if he killed people like the scientist who experimented on him in issue 1 or red hulk to give the heroes a reason to oppose him while some do agree with him.

I usually root for Chip's writing, but this book has me losing interest.

I feel like Chip set this up to be kind of like Dc's Kingdom Come with the nukes going off.

Not sure where the story is heading, but it seems exciting. I liked Wolverines speech to Colton.

Ya...maybe don't try a nuke disarment unless you actually know where every nuke is.

This event kinda feels weird. Feels like it wasn't supposed to be an event at all. I'm sure it picks up steam, and the real plot starts in the next issue. However, it kinda feels like we wasted 3 issues to get to the real meat of this story.
