This was absolutely fantastic. Loved the artwork, loved the writing. Working my way through all the tie ins now and I have yet to be disappointed.

What happens when the government decides to register all of the superheroes and regulate their behavior? Tony Stark embraces this new government directive and encourages other superheroes to join his side. Captain America rebels and joins a faction of superheroes who refuse to obey the rules that the government has made for them.

If the Captain America in this was real, he’d be whining about wearing a mask during coronavirus.

I hate this comic so much.

Seeing my favourites fight never fails to break my heart. 😭 this was a fun read, especially after having seen the civil war movie a million times. It was interesting to be able to compare the two and their differences. I enjoyed having the vast, combined cast of characters but I did feel as though that meant the personality of each individual didn't shine through as much. The dialogue was also a little cheesy at times (but who doesn't love some superhero cheesiness?) It wasn't my favourite marvel comic but it was a fun read nonetheless.

Good start, though a bit too grim. Rushed and half-baked finale. Many of the superheroes act out of character, which is off-putting. Some cool moments, but plenty of miserable ones too. This might have worked better in a post-apocalyptic world a la Millar's Old Man Logan. At least it's nice to look at. Art is great cover to cover.

This book is awesome but I wasn’t a fan of the start with the whole tv series thing, I think they could’ve made made influential characters instead of some people from a tv show like what they did in the movie (they had scarlet witch do something bad) but still cool first issue. The fight was awesome compared to the movie they had like probably 50 heroes fighting when in the movie there were like 12. I loved the emotion when captain surrendered himself to tony even when they were winning he realized that fighting friends was not right and the accords went through. Also Spider-Man realizes that iron man let a friend die and realizes that it’s not right and decides to join cap and is ‘outlaws’. My last point is that Mark Millar makes both teams have believable causes and you don’t feel like everyone was on one side *cough cough Civil War 2 cough cough*. Well that’s it this is good buy it
