    This series has just been a joy. Bonkers, but wonderfully entertaining. My best two gals as well, Black Widow and Spiderwoman.

    I didn't think I would enjoy this series as much as I have. The twists and turns now the knowledge that Ales Kot didn't plan all this ahead, and it all just came together? That's just "wow."

    Also, add me to the list of those wanting a Black Widow/Spider-Woman team-up book. We need at least a mini, damnit.

    Huh. I clearly have been missing out on this book. Sounds like my type of reading and writing. Is there a trade out of the first arc?

    SECRET AVENGERS VOL. 1: LET’S HAVE A PROBLEM TPB

    Written by ALES KOT

    Penciled by MICHAEL WALSH & RYAN KELLY

    Cover by Tradd Moore

    The new SECRET AVENGERS kick things off with a blast — three missions at the same time! Falling S.H.I.E.L.D. satellites endanger Earth! A post-nuclear warhead goes missing in the Middle East! And the Fury — yes, the unstoppable super-hero-killing machine that menaced Captain Britain — reappears deep inside Chinese territory! Can Hawkeye, Black Widow and Spider-Woman save Nick Fury and Phil Coulson from dying horribly in space? Will a wounded Maria Hill figure out what her uneasy ally M.O.D.O.K. is up to? Do the Secret Avengers have a prayer against the Fury? As death hits the Helicarrier, Black Widow faces Lady Bullseye — and Coulson goes rogue! Plus: Before he joined the Secret Avengers, agent Nick Fury disobeyed a direct order. Now, his Original Sin has come back to haunt him! Hail Hydra! Collecting SECRET AVENGERS #1-5 and ORIGINAL SIN: SECRET AVENGERS INFINITE COMIC #1-2.

    144 PGS./Rated T+ …$17.99

    Different artists. That cover by Tradd Moore. Michael Walsh did the interior. Color by Matt Wilson. Art and color is amazing imo.
    Hawkeye - Secret Avengers - Ms. Marvel - Inhuman - Ant-Man

    the sales are already well below the 20k Marvel cancellation mark, and the book is currently in its self-titled "third act". I say #15 should be the end, they're gonna let this run its course.

    And its a cool book, so I'm glad they can finish this out.

    When Marvel releases it's barrage of new #1 issues every other year, it's hard to decide what to read and what to let fall by the way.
    I'm glad I stuck with this title. It's been a goofy fun read.

    Ales Kot commented on his blog right from the start that he was in for a fifteen issue arc. At least Marvel let him finish his story despite the sales.

    I've been really enjoying this book, it's the only Avengers book I care about at this point. Actually, the only team book. Art and story are great, looking forward to the finale.
