Ok, this is a neat concept. It's not original, but it's neat. Especially with the whole "Civil War" thing. Basically, everyone is a hero for hire. But not all of them belong to this specific team. First of all the creative team is phenomenal. We go Justin Gray & Jimmy Palmiotti on scribes, and William Tucci and pencils. This spells "H-I-T" already. Now, the lineup of characters, Misty Knight, Colleen Wing, Humbug, Shang-Chi, Tarantula and the Black Cat. But it appears that they have many more counterparts available. Basically, Misty is recruited by Iron Man, to start up a new team to round up the people that refuse to register. The first target the get is a new identity ring, run by one of Misty's old nemesis' Vienna. However, after a big tussle, and all the heroes/villians are rounded up, it turns out is was just a big sting operation. Vienna is actually on their side, along with Palladin and Orca, who show up before the ultimate capture, to aid in the clean up. This book was basically just an introduction. It's explains how and why the team is being put together, and it introduces you to each of the characters, with a little background history on each. There's a little bit of action with the sting, but it's mostly groundwork. I liked to first issue, but I'll wait until we get farther into the story before I attempt a legitimate opinion. I have high hopes though.
