"All her life, Angela -- finest warrior of the Tenth Realm of Heven -- was raised to hate Asgard with every fiber of her being. But Angela has learned the truth about her identity: she is Thor's sister. She is an Asgardian. Cast out of Heven and disgusted with Asgard, Angela must strike out on her own! But she can't leave her heritage behind -- better to steal it. When Angela kidnaps the newborn child of Freyja and Odin, Thor goes on the warpath. With the help of an old friend -- and the Guardians of the Galaxy -- Angela flees across the realms. But is she protecting herself, or the entire multiverse? Forced into a corner, Angela takes the boldest swing she can: she must invade Heven!"--Cover, page 4.… (mer)

Well this was quite a tour de force. Angela (of Spawn fame) found her way into the Marvel universe. To give her presence in this world she is made daughter of Odin kidnapped by Heven Angels aeons ago. So when she finally finds her way back home she performs something that completely fires off everyone in Asgard.

In order to help her friend she will start series of events that, combined with Angela's nature (that makes Wolverine look like pacifist and peoples man in comparison), will bring the entire universe in state of utter destruction.

I like how people see Angel's and their "nothing for nothing" approach as "capitalism at maximum" :) Angel (beside being ultra Amazon society of bounty hunters and bad-ass warriors in general) are based on old ways so to speak. Even today in good part of the world it is custom to give something in return for anything received. It is just a way people try to enforce the idea that nothing comes free.

Of course for Angels (that are as warm people as Siberia in winter) this concept is basis of everything. If someone is indebted he better return the favor or ..... oh boy :) As a matter of fact all Angela's actions are as they are because she tries to pay off all of her debts in a way that will give her freedom.

So in all of this mayhem (center of which is Angela) we see Asgardians chasing her, Angels trying to figure out why is everybody from Asgard so hellbent to destroy them, Guardians of the Galaxy finding themselves played around by almost everyone (but hey in for a penny in for a pound, right:) ), Hella caught in a very surprising role of helping (instead of destroying :)), Malekith and Dark Elves getting struck by Angela (you truly feel sorry for them) and Surtur, that malevolent giant, trying to pry its way back into Nine Realms. Its constant action, action, action.

And ending, ending makes me eager to get the next volume as soon as it gets published.

Art is pretty good and I have to say consistent through all issues of this volume.

Highly recommended to fans of action stories full of exotic and ancient space civilizations. ( )

What is wrong with talking people. Tell them what you plan and maybe, just maybe, it might work out.

Angela the assassin is a daughter of Odin who was brought up by Angels and she's trying to ensure that her new-born sister is going to be okay. So she kidnaps her to help but never tells people the why, which causes chaos. ( )
