I'll let you see and decide for yourselves, but be warned:
In the wake of Marvel's Civil War, S.H.I.E.L.D. has prepared a series of intelligence dossiers about some of the people, places and things affected by the milestone event, which are collected in the Civil War: Battle Damage Report. Artist Scott Kolins told us what it was like drawing a few of the new pages in this closing chapter of the Civil War.
Kolins said he was looking for some extra work before his stint on the upcoming Omega Flight series began when Chris Allo asked him about drawing a pair of new pages for the Civil War: Battle Damage Report.
He said it was a challenge working on these pages to keep them "interesting, despite the straight-forward encyclopedic nature" of the entries. "There weren't a lot of aspects to consider [in these sequentials]," he said. "They were fun and different - not complex like storytelling pages, but lots of reference."
"I was sent reference on the characters to draw, a simple outline of whos in what picture and any other important details," Kolins continued. " The reference varies so greatly that its hard sometimes to find ways to keep the characters looking like they all belong on the same page. I have no idea what the rest of the book looks like. I hope they all fit together well enough."
Kolins said, "From what I understand, the Civil War: Battle Damage Report is a nice database to keep track of what's gone on and how it affects the Marvel world in general."
As noted, Kolins is busy working with Michael Avon Oeming on the upcoming Omega Flight. "We're working like crazy on this thing," he said. "We're way ahead of schedule and I'm loving it. It's gonna be something to see. I wish I could post the pages as I draw them. I'm having a great time!"
Here are the official solicits for this February's Civil War Battle Damage Report, so you know what to ask for at your local comic book shop:

So, super teams popping up all over the world or something? Is that supposed to mean that the Act stays put and now the rest of the world starts enforcing it as well? Way to go Marvel. Not.

This is why it helps to read everything, because if you had, you would have clearly seen the part at the end where I specifically said that it might "mean that the Act stays put and now the rest of the world starts enforcing it as well".
. It's been revealed in another place that [blackout]Might Avengers will feature registered heroes[/blackout] while [blackout]New Avengers will feature unregistered heroes on the run[/blackout]. So there's yet another spoiler for the end of the war that they themselves released.
