Hi all,
continue where we left off in the previous post dedicated to this maxiserie that Panini has collected in two little volumes, Masterpieces: Squadron Supreme Mark Gruenwald (I)
As noted in the previous post, the Squadron Supreme began as a mere imitation of the Justice League of America with sole purpose of confronting them with the Avengers and other Marvel Universe supergroups almost always under the pretext mental control. It is the late Mark Gruenwald who one day decide that this training is ideal for telling a great story that needs to ensure its impact, free use of its characters, without the constraints to which you have narrated had faced the same story with The Avengers.
Gruenwald is proposed to test the ideal comic book superhero himself pijameros putting the best (and only) Earth's heroes in the position of having to save the world from a state of pure chaos ( with famine and war) that, in addition, they themselves have caused. How to face this situation? Will right decisions?. Answers, a few lines below.
From here there may be spoilers
The Squadron Supreme is now at its lowest. The Earth is in chaos because of the tyranny to which humanity underwent while under the control of the Overmind, besides its glorious past satellite (which, like the Justice League, he served as base of operations) is crumbling into the earth without any remedy. It is at this precise point where the story starts we tell the volumes, with a squadron in decline, with torn uniforms, failing in his attempt to save the satellite. After that, the group meets and, given the situation, decide on a proposal from the Princess Power, take charge of the United States temporarily to stabilize the country and bring it to the highest levels of prosperity and civilization ever created. To do this, aim to launch the "Project Utopia" based on the conception of the world with the race of Princess Power, is to eradicate hunger, poverty, guns, disease and even death itself. Mark Gruenwald says the whole process on this project over the miniseries, from the exciting beginning to the problems that arise in their development, just for the reader to assess every step Squadron in its desire to control everything for the good of humanity. It is therefore a very human story, even though their characters are just "supreme." The relationship with the power and use it can be revealed as we humans are fallible and, by extension, the superhuman, not without our own shortcomings. 
Now, how to tell a human story with characters so stereotyped and flat?. The answer is obvious, making three-dimensional. In the first issue, the skillful writer does everything necessary for us to grasp the depth of the squad and the world in which they live. Thus, we show that the group has a past (the Golden Agency, in correspondence with the Justice Society of DC) and that times have changed since then. In a few pages outlining skill and expertise with the character and personality of the main members of the Squad: the self-confidence of Hyperion, Zarda moral superiority, the frivolity of Dr. Spectrum, insecurity Buzzer or strong opposition from Falcon Night at the Utopia project, arguing that control the world, even to improve it is to end the American people's liberty. Mark Gruenwald Once you get to completely forget everything you read before about the squad and have a panoramic view of the situation, the conflict will set the main plot of the maxiserie: the conflict between Nighthawk Squadron, is a clear precursor of the dilemma posed in Civil War: subjection under greater good vs. freedom. However, this is the background against which the story, but it is the only message that we send this work, which takes the opportunity to explore the more human flaws, as the frustration of unrequited love, jealousy, or simply the desire for a better life at any price, fixing them in some members of the squad that will serve as illustrative examples.
The emergence of the "machine behavior, which can alter the behavior of criminals to become good people allowed to explore more and better Gruenwald Mark Millar Civil War in the eternal debate between security and freedom with more powerful and convincing arguments for both sides, without falling into the mistake of giving a moral reason (the Anti-Registration side CW was clearly "good", since not only Iron Man Thor clone to treason, contains Heroes in the Negative Zone and hires supervillains, but is charged a hero on the other side, which the Cap's does not even remotely).
Non-gutting anything, I strongly recommend these two volumes and I ask a little patience in reading, as there is somewhere toward the last third of the story lacks pace, but it's worth only through its glorious end. And yes, I say well, GLORIOUS. While most of the time enjoyed a good story trip along the maxiserie Squadron achieved not only surprise you as a reader at the end, but thus give meaning to all previously read.
On the drawing, the truth is that there is not much to say. The task of Bob Hall and Paul Ryan is quite irregular and it is true that the potential of this comic is not in its visuals, though it is just right most of the time.
In summary, we can say that the Squadron Supreme is a work round where you can find characters with something to say, a story that poses dilemmas for the reader (not writer) and intensity values apotheosis that puts an end to clear the consequences of all gem anterior.Una not too well known by readers who are not veterans.
