This was really funny and a lot of fun! Reminds me of [b:Hawkeye, Vol. 1: My Life as a Weapon (Hawkeye 16002136 Hawkeye, Vol. 1 My Life as a Weapon (Hawkeye (Marvel NOW!) #1) Matt Fraction https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1360413248s/16002136.jpg 21502266]–a smart, wry look at a minor character. Although I knew more about Hawkeye than I did about the Sinister Six and I could kind of tell there were some jokes/plot points I wasn't quite getting. Still, it had a lot of VERY funny jokes, and I'm definitely interested to see where this goes. The villain/anti-hero POV is always interesting, and so far I think Nick Spencer is doing a good job of walking the line between keeping Boomerang a relatable narrator without making him some kind of totally misunderstood, “just trying to do the right thing,” kind of guy. Boomerang definitely does some straight-up bad guy shit in this book.
