THE STORY:
The wait is over!! The Mighty Avengers assemble!! Gathered together to be the greatest Avengers team ever, but who picked them?? And why?? And which A-list Avengers villain returns, revamped and reloaded for the ultimate revenge. Big super hero adventures every month from the multi-award winning team of Bendis and Cho.
32 PGS./Rated A …$2.99
Drop iron man cause he’s a two faced sack fo crap. insert war machine (jim rhodes) or maybe even U.S. Agent because it would be interesting to see the contrasting dynamic of two different teams with similar members but different agendas and methods to getting the job done. lots of conflict is a plus
who the heck is ares really? i suppose i seem to recall an old avengers where ares took over thor and used him to attack hercules… he was a bad guy though. why would the god of war be saving peoples lives? any help here?
this could be so much better with a different artist and brian reed co-writing. i would give it a year before cancellation, but a bendis series never gets cancelled.
Cho and Bendis are such bastards when it comes to Wonderman’s character. Wonderman has been the shittest, most lamest character to ever grace the pages of a comic since his inception. This condition seemed terminal and I assumed no one could cure this affliction. That was until George Perez and Kurt Busiek got their paws on him (they also made me like Vision which was surprising). During that run Wonderman went from ‘what were they thinking?’ to ‘can he be mayor of the world?’.
Why would you regress progress, Bendis/Cho? Why would you take him out of ‘being made out of raw ions’ and put him in a ladies leather jacket with gold jewelry and horse riding pants?
I suspect they’re planning a dramatic death and they’re dorkifying Simon for the kill. The Scarlet Witch will not be pleased.
Thought bubbles and desprictive panels should burn in hell. I hope they’re not bringing this bit of 30s nostaglia back. Thought bubble over Miss Marvel’s head: “Oh, I like Tony…wonder if he likes me too?”. Thought bubble over Ironman’s head: “I so need a drink right now. I need to pick up cat food when I go home. Oh, it’s lonely in my head”. Who wants to heard that shit? Not me.
No, Iron Man this is not the first time you get to pick…why just a few years ago you had this relaunch of the Avengers which featured every Avenger ever and you and Wasp and that other guy sat around a table and you decided who would be on the team, remember? Remember, it had Warbird and that girl with the thing and that guy that could like…fly. Tell me you remember, Iron Man!
Oh yeah, PS love your oceanliner…it looks like a big you.
