There's actually 2 parts to the story this issue. There's the Hood's fight with the New Warriors back at camp HAMMER. And . . there's Taskmasters involvement in the Siege that's going on in Asgard with Norman's Avengers. At camp HAMMER things are coming to a head as the New Warriors are trying to rescue their teammate, Donyell. But they don't know that the Hood is holding Donyell's dead brother Dwayne over his head. They've already cloned Dwayne's body, and the Hood is claiming that with his magic he can return the soul also. So, the New Warriors actually make pretty good headway here. The Scarlet Spider gets in and pretty much takes out their whole system. Which gives the New Warriors the advantage they need to actually have the possibility of winning here. And with that advantage gained, Tigra decides to make her move and go after the Hood herself. She wants him to pay for what he's done to her. That part of the story ends with the Hood telling Donyell that he needs to make a decision. 'You want your brother alive? I want Tigra dead!' Meanwhile, back in Broxton, Norman and his Avengers have recently taken down Thor. Taskmaster wants in on the credit . . he wants to make the jump to the 'big-leagues', but . . Norman shoots him down pretty quickly, putting him back in his place, and square on the front-lines of the battle. Taskmaster is definitely not happy about this, and I think that he's eventually going to turn on Norman. Also, Diamondback isn't sure what to do because she just happened to be there when all of this went down with Thor. Being a double-agent, she's afraid that the 'good-guys' are going to think that she was a part of this. But Constrictor quickly pulls her out telling her that they can still salvage things. That's when Maria Hill arrives. Apparently making a one-woman assault. And while Ares is trying to take out Norman, the Sentry shows up and apparently kills the god of war. But then everything changes when it looks like Steve has shown up . . Captain America. Overall, it was a pretty exciting issue. Christos Gage did a good job of balancing both parts of the story. And I really like Jorge Molina's pencils. I'm just sad that #35 is going to be the final issue. But . . all good things must come to an end. Sad! But true!
