The cold war paranoia that serves as the storys backdrop doesnt translate well today as globalization has taken hold but my generation and the subsequent generation sure still are worried about the world ending even today and we still look to superheroes as a distraction that soothes our fears while ignoring the underlying problems that require their existence

The writing is strong but often delves into purple prose and monologing that sometimes comes off as unnatural and dials back the pacing of a plot which already takes a while to really get going

The central mystery that drives the plot too is basically solved in a few pages and the twist isnt especially surprising
