Having read and enjoyed Cloak & Dagger in the 1980’s, I was worried that this would be another lame attempt at bringing the duo back into the limelight. It turns out Nick Spencer has a good grasp of the characters and does a great job of making them interesting.
The issue starts off with a quick origin montage to bring everyone up to speed. We then find Ty & Tandy about to be evicted from their place of residence in Holy Ghost Church so it can be demolished. From there the duo have to figure out where they’re going to stay and how they’ll support themselves. While they’re trying to do just that, the Avengers come along to enlist their help in keeping order in the Spider Island segment of the story.
