Great issue! I'm sad to see Humberto Ramos go. I love his art, and thought his style fit this series like a glove. We'll see if Rafa Sandoval can fill these big shoes starting with issue #26.
I have been collecting most of the Dark Reign books but I have to say, that none of them have captured how big a dick Osborn is as AI #25. Whether it be his plans for Tigra's baby, or his decision to cut off Gauntlet's arm, Norman Osborn is truly a psychopath! Gage does a fantastic job of capturing the desperation of the post SHIELD era. I found myself wanting to kill Osborn while reading this issue.
A nice twist of events as well, with Gauntlet giving Osborn and Ares his "answer" concerning his arm, and joining the New Warriors. There were way too many highlights to mention in this review. Buy this issue. Gage is a master of balancing multiple storylines. I'm not done all of my reads from the week, but this one will be tough to beat!
