Preamble As Secret Avengers #2. “Secret Histories: Part Two” begins I find myself asking…who is that man in the eye patch? Will Ed Brubaker confirm who it might be? Or will I be left howling in a Fury about who this villain might be? Situation Report Someone has hacked the Secret Avengers roving headquarters […]

Secret Avengers Vol. 1 #1 (Comic Files)
Preamble I’ve read all of Secret Avengers volumes two and three. But I never read what I have called the Captain America Secret Avengers. So now with my second favorite S.H.I.E.L.D. title cancelled, it is time for me to dip into the past and catch the original version of this team written by Ed Brubaker […]
Savage Hulk: The Man Within (Comic Files)
Preamble We all agree, the Hulk can be savage. So the new title Savage Hulk: The Man Within attempts to live up that that moniker. But instead of something fierce and bloody I found a story that would be fit for a Comic Book Time Machine with a new story crafted by Alan Davis that […]
All-New Invaders: Original Sin (Comic Files)
Preamble All-New Invaders: Original Sin reveals to us a horrible secret linked to one of the most prominent events of World War II. And we are challenged to answer could the Invaders have stopped it from happening in their fictional world? But most of all I ask is this another issue with a disposal secret […]
Captain America: The Tomorrow Soldier (Comic Files)
Preamble When I reviewed Captain America #25 I had to admit I was a little lost since between defeating Iron Nail and naming a new Captain America some stuff happened. This included a new Zola attack and the return of Sharon Rogers. Now with Captain America: The Tomorrow Soldier by Rick Remender my questions are […]
Wolverine: Three Months to Die Book 2 (Comic Files)
Preamble Wolverine: Three Months to Die Book 2 was never intended to be a Comic File. No, reading about the death of an Agent Butcher top ten superhero was meant to be “fun.” And throw in the fact that I did not enjoy the first issue of The Death of Wolverine, this was a collection […]

Uncanny X-Men: Vs. S.H.I.E.L.D.
Preamble Vs. S.H.I.E.L.D. you say, vs, S.H.I.E.L.D. you say! Why yes sign me up for Brian Michael Bendis’ Uncanny X-Men: Vs. S.H.I.E.L.D.! Situation Report Cyclops has had enough! His outlaw team of X-Men keep getting attacked by sentinels, and believing S.H.I.E.L.D. is the source he goes straight to Maria Hill for answers. The confrontation […]
Captain America #25 (Comic Files)
Preamble The cover yells, “Who is the NEW Captain America?” But the sad thing is if you picked up Captain America #25 you probably already know. Marvel has already spoiled the most important plot point through press releases and news stories. So I feel a little more free with spoilers in this comics file. […]
