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 […]
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 […]
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. […]
Original Sin #8 (Comic Files)
Preamble New comic day was a busy night. But there was a comic burning in my bag (actually two of them) and I knew I would not be able to sleep until I finished Jason Aaron and Mike Deodato’s Original Sin #8. I needed to know so much. Would Nick Fury live? Who killed the […]

Original Sin #6 (Comic Files)
Preamble What’s in the box, what’s in the box? Actually I should yell in a sharp-pitched voice (as noted on the cover) who pulled the trigger, who pulled the trigger? Yes, Nick Fury spilled a lot about the history of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Unseen. But is Fury going to tell us, if he even knows, […]
Original Sin #5 (Comic Files)
Preamble “You want the truth, you gotta go back. Back to 1958. And of all places…Kansas.” Yes Jason Aaron, you had me with the opening line of Original Sin #5. Please take me on a crazy fun trip! Situation Report In 1958 while working for Army Intelligence, Colonel Nick Fury helped stop the invasion […]
Original Sin #4 (Comic Files)
Preamble It has been a really really hard two weeks waiting for Original Sin #4. Let us just say what happened at the end of the last issue will blow the mind of S.H.I.E.L.D. fans, though at the time I made a solid prediction of what is going to happen next, in my mind. And […]
Original Sin #3 (Comic Files)
Preamble So a guy with an eye for a head has the eye! But what special properties does the eye have? And did the Orb kill the Watcher? And will we find out in Original Sin #3? Situation Report The Orb holds the eye and he uses it as a weapon against the heroes searching […]
