Everyone in 'Irredeemable' has an agenda, and it seems every agenda conceals another agenda and every situation is a smokescreen for something else.

The Avengers would have a much easier time trying to stop Lindsay Lohan from shoplifting jewelry. Instead they must contend with the Hood and his quest to steal the Infinity Gems.

In the latest episode of Mark Waid's tale of Earth after the Plutonian, allegiances are shifting and good deeds get punished. Which is evidently what happens when your lead character is a reforming super-villain.

When we left off last issue, Tigra had just expelled Striker, Veil, and Hazmat from the Academy and I expected Giant-Man and the other instructors to back her up. Silly me, what was I thinking?

How many aspiring science fiction writers are out there right now, laboring away in mundane jobs? Odds are that none of them would like to be Benjamin Warner.

Best line of the issue: “Once you get into the Fin Fang Foom of it all, you can lose your audience.”

A fitting title for this issue might've been “I’ve Got Me Under My Skin.” This is because of the creative way the desperate Vespans come up with to restrain the powerful but paranoid Plutonian before they take further, drastic steps to save themselves from their former captive.

The expression “all talk and no action” is usually an insult. In The Avengers #9 it’s actually not a bad thing.
