The Marked #5 wraps up the first plot arc and volume of the series, and it does so with gusto. The Marked portrays the darker sides of magic. Where temptation and corruption can take root. Yet there is always a shining beacon, even in a series like this.
The Marked shows us a world in which magic does truly exist. One must know how to create or transfer glyphs onto the skin to gain control of them. But as The Marked #4 is quick to prove, that does not mean power will never fall into the wrong hands.
So, I think we all saw this coming. The major War of the Realms event has hit Superior Spider-Man. And it brought a temporary team for our genius to deal with: the West Coast Avengers. Obviously, fans of the now-canceled series will likely be thrilled to see their reappearance, no matter how brief it is.
