Comments
This issue was pretty good. It had a solid build up to the action that takes place in. The creation of Baron Zemo as a villain who caused problems was also great. Also it was neat to see that Cap who came up with the idea to switch villains shows why he would be come leader at a latter point. Also the idea of using three villains was a great idea and showed how they could cause problems for the Avengers and New York City. I think this issue also shows that both the writers and the team its self are finally getting into pace and being the series that would become so big.
p.s thank to everyone who read my 100 comic review. I hope you enjoyed and i work foreword to when I hit 150 and 200 and than more
