Simply Amazing
There is a reason why Winter Soldier is my favorite title. This Broken Arrow arc has been an exhilarating ride from the first issue and this issue is no exception. If there was ever a story arc that could be turned directly into a movie, this is it. This issue starts up with Bucky and Sitwell searching for Natasha. As usual the characterization is fantastic as Brubaker shows the agony that Bucky is in as they look for any traces of her or Leo's plan. There is a lot of great action in this issue, but I can't say too much without spoiling the story. The ending will leave you breathless and clamoring for issue 10 to see what happens.
As I mentioned, Brubaker has done a great job with this title. It is sad to see him leave, but he is sure going to be a tough act to follow for Latour. He writes emotions and interactions as well as anyone, and this book proves it. Lark and Breitweiser pencil and color this story to perfectly capture the tone.
I cannot recommend this series and arc enough.
