BONUS REVIEW by MATT STREETS
With little if any fanfare, this much delayed issue finally limps into stores, ugly Alex Ross cover and all. In this opening issue, Jessica Drew is recruited by S.W.O.R.D. to infiltrate, expose, and exterminate alien races hiding on Earth, starting with ,‘sigh’, a renegade Skrull. Give credit to Bendis for trying to make some sense of this convoluted character, but honestly it’s kinda hard to care. Still, Maleev’s art was gorgeous as always, and the story was just good enough to come back for number two.
