Finished reading Civil War: Warzones! This dives into the Warzone domain which is split into the Blue and the Iron as writer Charles Soule tells the story of what could have happened to the Marvel heroes if the superhuman Civil War continued. The book opens up with Miriam Sharpe recapping what has happened over the past few years since the beginning of this Civil War and hopes to have a meeting with Steve Rogers and Tony Stark in hoping to bring an end to the civil unrest that the domain has been in since it split into two factions. During the meeting Miriam is assassinated by a mystery sniper which worsens the confrontation between the two sides while She Hulk goes undercover to find out who killed Miriam and why. Overall this was a great book as it takes some captivating twists and moments within the book. The character changes are great as Captain America and Iron Man have now become the leaders of the two sides of the domain while this version of Spider-Man is more like Falcon thanks to his role within Cap's army while this version of the Hulk is actually Wolverine which brings about a couple of brilliant moments within the story. While the addition of the Skrulls within the book makes for not only a surprising twist but one that also makes an enormous amount of sense when it's compared to how the main Marvel universe carried on after the original Civil War. The artwork is great as artist Leinil Francis Yu does an amazing job in designing the different landscapes while also giving classic Marvel characters a nice redesign that help them to fit into this world. While the colour palette used by colourist's Sunny Gho and Matt Milla is great as each location gets a distinctive colour tone form the dark greys and grim tone of Steeltown to the bring primary colours use for Iron helps to give make location their own character. 8.5/10.
