Annnnd we’re off! By that, I mean it’s time to dive into a new plot arc in Captain Marvel #43. As the title suggests (Revenge of the Brood), this is likely to be an intense arc, and I cannot wait to see how it plays out.

Okay, so I knew it would hit hard because Brood, duh. But I was NOT expecting certain characters to get so wrapped up in this plot. It’s a pleasant surprise and does a great job of bringing certain elements full circle. That’s always been a talent of Kelly Thompson’s, so that isn’t all that much of a surprise. But it is appreciated.

If you love Captain Marvel arcs that pull in other heroes, especially the X-Men (nostalgic, much?), you’ve got to check out this issue. Though I should warn you, Captain Marvel #43 ends on a cliffhanger.
