The 4th chapter of the Black Vortex! With some of their members captured by the villainous Mr. Knife, the team must decipher the secrets of the Black Vortex. And quickly! But with the galaxy in chaos, they don't have too many options open to them. Maybe there's an old war-buddy Peter can call to help them out? Rated T

Reviews

The Strangest Superheroes of All continue engaging with the Guardians of the Galaxy in The Black Vortex crossover event, which is thus far incredibly challenging to enjoy. The object at the center of the story can evolve a character to their supreme selves, or something, but it also makes them incredibly pompous, or evil, or something. Characters don't interact, they declare! I cannot recall a comic that so spun its wheels and moved characters around like pawns without a compelling motivation. Things blow up, characters get mad, and everyone's yelling about the Black Vortex...a lot. I love Bendis, but this is a disappointing effort from what was once one of his finest Marvel titles. Sorrentino's art has some striking gestures, but overall adds to the muddiness of the narrative.
