This is another guy who's got it coming at him from all sides. But, really . . it's his own fault. Well, maybe not entirely . . but it's not like he doesn't deserve it. After the debacle with the Black Spectre Marc didn't have much choice but to take him out. However, the problem is, he didn't get to clear up his name first. SHIELD, and the public, still blame him for all 47 of the murders. What's he gonna' do? It's his word against a dead man's now. However, the government isn't happy with the way SHIELD, or more specifically Tony Stark, has handled things so far. So . . they've tasked the Thunderbolts with apprehending the vigilante. Normie seems just a little to enthusiastic about going after Marc. You can almost see him drooling while he's explaining the ops. Meanwhile, Crawley is out there trying to round up all of Marc's old associates, but . . he's burned a lot of bridges behind him. None of them want anything to do with helping Marc. Bet even with all of this going on, Marc's still out there 'kicking ass and taking names'. He kind of looks like the Black Panther in his new costume. I think Mike Benson is doing a great job with this story. However, it's starting to look like he's got Marc painted into a corner and I don't quite know how he's going to get him out of this mess. This story-arc is called 'the Death of Marc Spector', but . . I don't think they mean that literally. Do they? After looking at the last page . . he just may be. Anyways, Mark Texeira and Javier Saltares handle the art and it looks fantastic. I really like it when these 2 work together. I'm sad that they aren't on the Ghost Rider anymore, but . . if they gotta' move somewhere else, I'm glad it's here. Their style fit's perfectly with this book.
