Now that Civil War II is passing the halfway mark (not counting those early prologue issues), it finally feels like this story is shifting into gear. Sides are being chosen, heroes are divided and real conflict is finally brewing. Unfortunately, the series is beginning to suffer from the same characterization problems that hounded the original Civil War.
While issue #4 is every bit as dialogue-driven and exposition-heavy as the previous chapters, writer Brian Bendis and artist David Marquez are able to strike a better balance between exposition and exciting, action-packed imagery. They do this by having Tony Stark relate his arguments to an unseen bystander while simultaneously showcasing Carol Danvers and her allies as they continue their fight to change the future. That approach mostly eliminates the need for talking heads and helps hurry the series' formerly sluggish pace along. And while there are a few places where Bendis' dialogue still comes across as awkward (mainly in various characters' tendency to refer to others by their full, formal names), this back-and-forth, conversational approach is much more suited to his particular voice.
