For a tie-in issue related to a cross-over event that I find remarkably boring, I have to say that I really enjoyed this story. Garza's shock at the assassination of the crazed Inhuman gave us some real insight into a civilian's view of the ethical implications of the battles that superheroes fight on a daily basis. It leads to the rare moment of someone getting super-powers, but deciding that they don't want to play God. Garza isn't necessarily bothered by the powers themselves, but more the decisions that come with them. I liked how Brisson didn't play up the outrage card: Garza doesn't judge Fury for killing the Inhuman. She acknowledges the complicated factors involved in him making that decision; she just knows that she doesn't want to make them. The fact that Maria Hill essentially throws her into prison as a result is pretty much all you need to know about Maria Hill.
*** (three of five stars)
