For those who haven't been following along, the first four issues of Secret Warriors have mostly involved setting up the situation and putting the pieces in place.
The situation is: Hydra is much more powerful than anyone ever suspected.
The pieces are: Nick Fury, his team of super-powered Secret Warriors, some former members of SHIELD, and a few members of the World War II-era Howling Commandos. Oh, and don't forget Hydra and HAMMER.
(And has Marvel ever explained how Dum-Dum Dugan and the other Howlers have not aged? They explained that Fury was treated with an experimental Immortality serum, but for some reason they didn't bother explaining how the rest of the team has stayed so young and vital when they should be in their 80s or 90s. A sentence would clear this up, guys.)
At any rate, with this issue, the set-up is over, and the action kicks into full gear.
To which I can only say, "Thank You!"
Lots of fun, and lots of promise for future issues. I like!
