I picked this title up on a whim and was shocked at how much I enjoyed it. It's a whimsical and fun filled issue that reminded me of Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane.

While I don't think this comic book will be up everyone's alley, I think a lot of people that may have passed it up or failed to even give it a look might do well to stop and take a gander the next time they hit up their comic shop. They might just be surprised at how much they end up enjoying a title like this.

The basic plot is simply Iron Man calling up Hellcat with an offer to head up a one man Initiative team in Alaska and subsequently dealing with her trip up there and a really random talking polar bar fight scene at the end.

It's a whimsical and fun filled issue that reminded me of Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane.  

It doesn't sound like much, but it's fun to read and Immonen does an excellent job with Patsy's dialogue and the tone of the story is decidedly carefree and just fun. Did I mention this issue was just fun to read? I think I've said it's fun already, but I don't know if I stressed that enough yet.

Verdict - Check It. It's far from required reading and I honestly don't think everyone will like this type of book, but, for those that do, this is more than likely a Must Read than a Check It in that regard.
