Everyone’s raving about Secret Warriors:

“All of Hickman’s plot details fit together in a sensible, captivating way, and keep the title’s reputation as Marvel’s de facto slinky espionage book alive.” – Bryan Joel, IGN.com

“But the genius of this series is that Hickman keeps that stuff behind the curtain. The ‘secret’ here isn’t just in the title. I don’t know if Hickman does have pages and pages of diagrams to show how all of his pieces fit together — though I’m convinced he does — but it’s the promise of the mystery that makes this series so compelling.” – Timothy Callahan, ComicBookResources.com

“[Vitti] emphasizes realistic characters and believable, but stylish, settings…For a Marvel debut, his work is stunning.” – Paul Brian McCoy, ComicsBulletin.com

Just what’s happened that forces Steve Rogers and the Secret Warriors together? Are the Howling Commandos headed for the history books? Find out when the Secret Warriors enter the Heroic Age in Secret Warriors #17!
