It all starts to fall apart in Vol 2. I felt very cheated reading this, as many of the key events happen off page in another book. The second panel announces the death of a major character, but never explains how or why because you have to read something else to find out. It’s beyond frustrating, and there are more examples as the issues progress (e.g. the Hellfire Gala). Very disappointed in Marvel, and I imagine it must be frustrating for Gillen too. There are some fun sequences in here but Sinister has worn out his welcome a little by now. And the ‘Immortal’ part of the title begins to feel silly: having no consequence death makes the stakes very low. I think I’ll read Wikipedia to find out about the looming disaster rather than having to buy random extra books to satisfy Marvel’s coffer-filling narrative gaps.
