This is an awesome read and a multi-parter. We recalled when it first came out, we felt that it kind of dropped the momentum of the earlier issues but after re-reading this in one seating have to admit that the writer and artist did one hell of a job because every single chapter or issue of this comic, the characters split into yet another time zone ... so by end of it all everyone was everywhere and trying to find their way home ... you just have to read this to understand what we are talking about ...
And the fact SPOILER is that this is the arc that has ramifications in the lives of Hawkeye and Mockingbird for several years not just empty hype because at this juncture Hawkeye is still upbeat about holding onto the Avengers code of no killing while 'bird is from SHIELD and can kill
Anyway, at this part of the game, all you need to know is that when the WCA tried to track down a villain, they were fooled into stepping onto Doom's ole time travelling platform that can only work backwards in time. So figuring that out they realized they have no choice but to time jump to either meet the FF or others who can fix for them so they can return to their own time
And when the WCA reaches Ancient Egypt, they are having problems fighting off the locals at that time under the control of Rama-Tut aka another version of time travelling villain, Kang ... while simultaneously being recognized by the ancient priests of Khon-Su (Moon Knight's deity) ... and Strange and Clea and others are also having some travelling in this juncture ... and finally of course as the cover indicates that the FF are also there fighting against Kang
But this is not the end of the journey as the WCA is going to miss every opportunity to join them and head home to their time ... and please note that Mock is kidnapped by the Ghost/ Phantom Rider while they were traversing through the Wild West!
So much goodness, so much action!
