BONUS REVIEW by KIRK JACKSON
This is why Bendis gets the big bucks over at “The House of Ideas”
people. After the jaw dropping event that happened in issue 2, you might
have been worried that it would be all downhill from there. Have a
little faith though guys because every panel in this issue is chocked
full of serious action. This is the kind of battle where everything that
happens is significant, but there’s so much of it, so entire fights are
deftly characterized in only one or two panels without leaving the reader
feeling cheated. The most important fights however, do take up much more
than two panels. Thor/Sentry is the true clash of gods that we’ve been
waiting for. But more than just great fights, Bendis delivers a great
story complete with self referential humor delivered by the characters
who SHOULD be the funny ones (Spiderman), and a big pay off we’ve all
been waiting for!
