Although all old comics and nothing should be new to the regular Marvel Comics reader, this was helpful to me as a newbie to the comic reading world. Always been a fan of Wolverine so after I read the Death of Wolverine... I was ready to see the craziness that Marvel is doing with Secret Wars. This prelude allows for the casual fan to catch up on some (not all) of the holes that one would have upon entering the Secret Wars nine-part arc. I feel like it is well put together.
