The Pulse.

The strength of this issue, as has the previous ASM issues for Dark Web, has been the pencils of Ed McGuinness. However, its nice to see that at least one of the Dark Web tie-ins (the 3-part Dark Web: X-Men) was actually relevant to main story. Lots of action and emotion in this issue. I’m saddened by the trauma Ben Reilly is experiencing, but hoping Chasm will get onto a redemption story. Intrigued by the final two parts of the Dark Web event. 7.5 out of 10.
