The Hood has lost his powers. Loki has taken them away to give to the super heroes battling the Void. The Hood is a broken man and must find a way to get back at the Avengers. So he and Madame Masque make a quick getaway. This story explains why the Hood was so loyal to Norman Osborne and shows that Bendis has more plans for the Hood. The series is nearing its end and it’s about time. While this issue was a better read, there isn’t much to justify keeping this series alive now that the Siege is almost over and the running story with the Sentry is almost over. Like usual a lot of the marerial was filler, although the artwork was quite good. Mckone is an old pro. He really could not mess something like that. Hopefully he’ll have better material to work with the next time.
Rating: 6/10
