The Rundown: Bucky and his team go after another twisted clone, but they will seek help from Hulk first.

The twisted clones known as the Killuminati are still on the loose and Bucky needs to know how to find the most dangerous of them, the clone of Reed Richards. Not knowing where to go next, he and his team decide to ambush the Hulk so they can enter his mind and speak to Banner who is trapped inside it.

After getting the information they need and barely escaping Hulk’s wrath, Clea teleports them to where the clone of Strange is located instead of Reed and the team finds itself facing off against the clone of Xavier alongside Carnage who is looking for a killer.

The Story: The dysfunction within this team is truly fun to read. Humphries does a great job of bringing out the elements of these characters that make being team players a problem and use those dysfunctions to tell an entertaining and thrilling story. There continues to be some interesting stakes in this series arc and I look forward to seeing how it plays out.

The Art: Lima creates some beautiful art in this issue. I love the visual thrills of the action and how immersive the art is throughout the issue.
