The cover alone makes you want to buy this comic ... nay makes you, if you are any casual comic fan, feel that you simply need to buy this comic. I mean look at it. Everyone is trapped beneath the mountain and the Hulk is the only chap able to even give them a tiny bit of breathing space. You just know that the contents if it mirrored the cover even one teeny tiny bit is going to rock! And in this series, the cover is not misleading!Once more, we open the issue with a huge explosion as we see the heroes fleeing when their base is attacked and destroyed (from issue 3) and while they are scrambling to get to safety and hoping to find new refuge, the villains decided thanks to newly created super woman Titania who hurled a gigantic piece of machinery after the fleeing villains ... that it is not enough (and rightly so)
What do the villains do? Why at this point their most powerful chap is the Molecule Man and he lifts and sends an entire mountain range after the heroes! Hence the cover!
Other things of note here would include the ongoing relationship between the Wasp and Magneto as they seemed to slowly be developing feelings for each other while in other parts of that war torn world, the X-Men are gathering their forces readying for their turn at war!
All in all, another great issue ... except for that cover blurb. We know that the Hulk can life over 100 tons but that cover states billions?!?!?!?!?
Ratings: 8/10
