Preview: Squadron Supreme #6 From Marvel Comics
By D. Goodman
Squadron Supreme kicks of their next major story arc “Through the Lens” in issue #6 and we have a preview of that you can expect.
Squadron Supreme quickly became one of the bigger hits of the All-New All-Different Marvel thanks to the team’s take no prisoners, any means necessary way of operating. Right out of the gate they killed Namor the Sub-Mariner as revenge for the events of “Time Runs Out” and his actions as part of the Illuminati.
Now it would seem Black Bolt is their next target.
The title, written by James Robinson and featuring art by Leonard Kirk, begins its highly anticipated second arc titled “Through the Lens” where the team of refugees from various destroyed universes take on the next name of their hit list.

Thus far Squadron Supreme has been a real interesting read. It is a totally different animal that any previous version of the title and James Robinson has proven he knows his way around a comic book script. This new arc looks like it will continue what works so well in the first arc but up the ante a bit.
Squadron Supreme #6 goes on sale everywhere April 27, 2016.
