More X-humiliation in this issue as Wasp single-handedly takes down the team and Magneto regresses further into evil villain stereotype. Also characters drop the “oh you’re no better/worse than Hitler” line here which already feels somewhat loaded.

Apart from that the heroes escape from under a mountain and arrive at a village. The Battleworld of Secret Wars has civilians that need protecting. It sort of works an idea but the way it’s dropped in here really smacks of it all being made up as it goes along.

Actually this freewheeling, insane plotting probably captures the spirit of a small kid playing with Marvel action figures perfectly. And then a city of aliens appear. Just because. Don’t think about it. It just more crazy cool stuff.
