Anyone reading the SHIELD miniseries?

I'm going through a phase where I'm pretty indifferent to the current Superhero comics right now, but SHIELD is the one book I'm looking forward to reading more of.

Fun stuff like Imo Tep as a Captain America-like figure taking on the Brood in ancient egypt and the deep seated conspiracy that runs through history and the modern incarnation of SHIELD.

Not bad for a Marvel comic starring Leonardo Da Vinci! (think League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, with Galileo, Nostradamus, and the hidden history of the Marvel Universe).

Great art compliments a layered and complex storyline.

Galileo facing down Galactus is right up there with the best of Lee and Kirby's crazy wild ideas.

I picked up the first couple issues because it looked intriguing. It's pretty good, a little confusing in that Doctor Who wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey way, but I like it so far.

The art is good too. That Da Vinci looks very Mike Grellish to me.

Is this a mini series? I thought it was ongoing?

If it's an ongoing series, that makes me even happier, since I'm enjoying the book so much (I guess I was just assuming it was a mini).

The second issue features Howard Stark and Nathaniel Richards, the fathers of Iron Man and Mr Fantastic.

Hopefully it will tie into upcoming issues of the Fantastic Four.

Probably the most interesting book Marvel's putting out right now to me.

Hickman's FF is pretty good, too.
