Ok . . so what we find out this issue is that the tachyon particles in the gun that killed Steve are linked, somehow to the unidentified nano-particles in Sharon Carter's blood. Although, with Steve's message that the Vision recorded back in the 40's, Reed figures out that they're actually chronal-tracers and it's what's drawing Sharon and Steve together through time. Unfortunately Dr Doom, the Red Skull and Dr Zola already know all of this. Somehow it's what the original machine, that Sharon destroyed, was intended to do. But now, with Dr Doom's help, the original architect, they've reassembled the machine and have one again begun their task of retrieving Steve. Or . . are they just retrieving Steve's body? In Doom's lab it seems that the Red Skull is just as much a part of this experiment as is Sharon. They pull Steve back, but . . when he rises from the table, it's the Red Skull in Steve's body. So where's Steve? I guess we'll have to wait until next issue to find out that information. Meanwhile, Reed and Hank Pym are also putting this puzzle together . . thanks in part to the Vision. And once they start to see the picture being presented, they also realize that they have their own way of tracking things . . they also have some of Sharon's blood.
I do have one question though . . what is Norman Osborn's role in all of this, and what can he possibly hope to gain? With only one issue to go, the next book should contain one hell of a story. I can't wait to see how all of these pieces come together. Ed Brubaker is doing a fantastic job here. He's feeding us just enough information to keep us intrigued without giving away to much of the story. Next issue should be a nice little wrap up . . at least to this chapter. I'm sure this isn't going to be the whole story. Also Bryan Hitch and Butch Guice's art is incredible. I miss Bryan on the Fantastic Four, but . . he's doing an equally incredible job here. This is definitely a classic in the making. If you haven't been buying it, I'm sure the TPB will be out soon. However you do it, you should try to get your hands on this story. It really is that good.
