With the release of this tenth and final issue, Secret Empire can officially be filed away with the rest of Marvel's lackluster, unfulfilling event comics. It's not like there haven't been other disappointments since Secret Wars set the new gold standard in 2015. But what makes Secret Empire frustrating is that it started out so well, and even as recently as two issues ago still showed signs that it would ultimately live up to its promise. Sadly, it just wasn't to be.
Above all, Secret Empire #10 disappoints because it gives readers exactly what they were expecting and nothing more. The conflict between Supreme Hydra Steve Rogers and the Avengers unfolds in very predictable fashion. Granted, there are some memorable moments along the way. Ant-Man still shines under Nick Spencer's hand, and it's certainly a thrill seeing the classic Steve Rogers reassert himself at long last. But those moments don't do nearly enough to make this issue into the rousing, exciting conclusion it needs to be. After so much build-up, Secret Empire becomes just another superhero crossover that boils down to a simple fistfight between heroes and villain.
