A rule bound head butler's world of manners and decorum in the household he maintains is tested by the arrival of a housekeeper who falls in love with him in post-WWI Britain. The possibility of romance and his master's cultivation of ties with the Nazi cause challenge his carefully maintained veneer of servitude.

The are a fictional Marvel Comics superhero team formed and headed by the ageless, unflappable Nick Fury. Created by Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev, the characters were introduced in the Secret Invasion Marvel storyline issue of Mighty Avengers #13, and debuted as a team in Secret Invasion #3, both published in 2008. On February 4, 2009, the team was launched in their own ongoing series. This series is co-plotted by Bendis with Jonathan Hickman writing and is one of the titles launched as part of the Dark Reign storyline. Current issue #9 is part 3 of the 4-part story arc, "God of Fear, God of War" and as stated in a note in the introduction, the story is supposed to take place the events depicted in Dark Reign: The List - Secret Warriors--released, as usual thanks to the convoluted minds of Marvel editors last October 7, 2009. That's one reason why I do not like crossovers. Still, the action scenes by both writer Jonathan Hickman and artist Alessandro Vitti rival the best any creative team has to offer, and Hickman's forceful dialogue and spot-on characterizations make this title consistently stand out among the best of Marvel. IGN gave this one an "Impressive" 8.3 out of 10 rating. I believe the reviewer was being nitpicky.
