Anyone here reading this?

If, so...how about that last issue?

This series is one of the two or three books that I not only look forward to every month, but can't stand waiting on. Dan Slott constantly comes through with some of the most original ideas. Usually, I don't care about new characters but Gauntlet and the recruits are becoming some of my favorite characters

The revelation at the end of issue #6 totally blindsided me. In a million years, I would have never guessed who Gauntlet's attacker was. Brilliant.


My only question is: Why did he lie to the S.H.I.E.L.D agents about the identity of his attacker? Was he acting on orders? Did he really not know? Is he going to try to handle things within the Initiative and not involve S.H.I.E.L.D?

The end of issue #6 gave me a new favorite character.

Well, for this week, anyway. ;)

As for why he lied to the feds... remember, they're still covering up the truth about MVP...

I'm actually really liking this book as well as The Order. I can't believe I'm liking them...

The Order is fantastic so far and really is one of those X-Statix style funny books....

I love how they use rarely seen characters.
Bengal has always been one of my favorites.
