The problem with reading Marvel comics when you're just following one character is that you get to large scale events like this one and are often missing some part of the story. That's definitely how I felt reading this volume, because there's a lot of space Marvel things happening in this that I didn't have context for. I powered through, though, and I did like some of the art in this one! I know that this is a jumping point for Marvel space in the future, so we'll see if I go down that route!
