Secret Warps: Weapon Hex Annual #1

The wide array of mash-ups are drawn well by Carlos Villa and Bob Quinn, and there are quite a lot of clever moments and concepts introduced in this issue, with the issue's take on Gabby sure to be a fan-favorite. Read Full Review

If you enjoy the Warped stories as well as the INFINITY WARS event, then you're probably curious enough to see the direction of these Annual Warped issues. On the other hand, this issue is not a good jumping on point and was very confusing even for someone whos read INFINITY WARS and the last Warped Annual issue. Read Full Review

This is a super-silly read, but definitely a fun diversion for fans of Marvel's weirdest experiment in recent history. Read Full Review

A Weapon Hex story focused on anything but, this Secret Warps continuation lacks any clear direction for character or personal stakes in service of larger plot beats that feel inconsequential. Disappointing, but not dismal. Read Full Review

The crossover crisis continues in the A strip, and the relentless pace of fresh mashups is giving me whiplash. It's a little too hard to buckle down and care about the phoney baloney big picture threat when the villains and the threat du jour are constantly churning. The B strips are starting to outshine the A strips for me. The one in this issue is refreshingly restrained after the bonkers A strip. I liked the villain, the premise, the execution, the humor -- a lovely little treat that puts the spotlight on Weapon Hex and Speed Weasel much more effectively than the A strip.

Not as good as the Soldier Supreme annual. Al Ewing's continuing Secret Warps story doesn't have the intrigue that the first part did. Tim Seeley's back up was mostly inconsequential, which is a step up for him, honestly.
