New Avengers #6 (HERE BE SPOILERS!)

This issue is one of the issues that I accidentally got when I picked up three weeks' worth of comics, having intended to drop the title.  I'm glad that I got it, though, because Hickman does make the story a little more interesting here.  The addition of the threat of the Mapmakers means that the Illuminati aren't just standing around Necropolis wringing their hands over having to destroy worlds.  But, I still don't find it enjoyable.  Something about Hickman's writing is remarkably cold, leaving the characters as little more than chess pieces to advance, and I'd rather spend my money elsewhere.  But, it's a good issue on which to end.
