Marvel’s CHAMPIONS #5, available today, brings us back to a battle for what is right, as the Champions take on C.R.A.D.L.E. Written by Eve L. Ewing, and with art from Bob Quinn, Federico Blee, and VC’s Clayton Cowles, this issue packs a punch.
The Champions‘ last four issues have shown us a battle that feels like we’re once again seeing history repeat itself. Kamala’s Law feels far too similar to the Super-human Registration Act – a law that required the registration of all those with superpowers.
Only this time around, the target is ‘merely’ those that are underage. Never mind how one can tell the age of a hero when they aren’t public about their identity in the first place. But that’s hardly the point right now, is it?
With the creation of this law and a new task force (C.R.A.D.L.E.), the Champions have been split apart. One wracked with guilt, several captured and imprisoned (sorry, ‘schools’), and the rest on the run. And that is where Champions #5 picks up.
