The Revenge of the Brood (part two) continues in Captain Marvel #44. This arc is killing it, if I may say so. I know, I know – I’m biased. But I’m happy to see so many of my favorite characters together (Spider-Woman, Hazmat, Psylocke, Polaris, Gambit, must I go on?).

This was a fun issue. Okay, it also got a bit dark, but since this is the Brood we’re talking about, that’s probably no real surprise to anyone. It was great seeing the team find ways to work together, utilizing strengths and minding each other’s weaknesses (primarily the inability to breathe in space – a big point to remember, right?).

There was one moment when I had to go back and reread everything that happened because the transition was so sudden. I shouldn’t have done that, though, as if I had just kept reading, it all would have been explained.

Long story short, I love the latest Captain Marvel run and can’t wait to see where it goes. The good news about being a bit behind is I can binge it all!
