You may
remember a while back, I covered Steve Rogers: Captain America. Written by Nick
Spencer, it featured a revelation: that in bringing Cap back from being aged,
the cosmic cube (Kobik) messed with reality and made him HYDRA, thinking that was for the best or something. I dropped the book
after 4 issues because of its pacing, which was far too slow for my liking, but
then we come to what it was all building up to, Secret Empire
Secret
Empire was not a smash for Marvel sales wise with numbers dropping well below
what is normal for an event comic. Why is that? Well, I’m not covering 13
issues in 1 go, especially when it’s of this sh*t, so I’ll be doing it in 3
parts making this my first and hopefully only multi-part review. Let’s take a
look at Secret Empire
We’ll be
looking at #0, the Free Comic Book day issue, and #1-3
