Aug 28, 2015"S.H.I.E.L.D." #9 is a magnificent sample of all things S.H.I.E.L.D., blending the comics and television concepts together and letting the reader decide what is most important and/or interesting. Waid and Ferguson supply a done-in-one that carries through some threads from the ongoing series, but they don't take away from this being an enjoyable standalone issue. Adding a bit of variety served up on a tangent, the "Howling Commandos of S.H.I.E.L.D." offers an interesting amalgamation of espionage thriller and horror adventure. "S.H.I.E.L.D." #9 kicks off the anniversary in style but sets the bar high. Hopefully, this just means we're in for more "S.H.I.E.L.D." related treats. Read Full Review
