Goodreads Synopsis:

Site Aleph is secured and Equilibrium is ready to explode onto the world stage. So everything’s great, right? Wrong. Mr. Gold is still at large, Marla Ritchie is still missing, and Captain Canuck will move heaven and Earth to find them both. The Gauntlet collects Captain Canuck #7-11 and features the comics debut of Blue Fox and the first appearance of the all-new, rebooted Northguard, now starring in his own solo series!

Review:

 

I didn’t like this volume as much as the first.

In this book, Captain Canuck faced the same villain, Mr. Gold. I was hoping his story was over and we would get a new villain in this book. It was tedious and boring to read about the same problems again.

I liked the introduction of Blue Fox. She was a great contrast to the Captain. However, his allies got lost in the mix. I kept getting them confused. I think it would have been better if there were less people on his team or if they were given more space in the story.

I hoped that this volume would be as entertaining as the first one, but unfortunately it was not.
