I am surprised at how much I liked this! My previous experiences with Jeph Loeb have not been positive.It is unsubtle but it feels emotionally honest.
I wanted to like this more, but, reading this long after the book was published and subsequent events, this story ends up being a mockery thanks to typical Marvel actions. Instead of being a tribute, this serves only to diminish this entire storyline, the character and the meaning of his sacrifice.
