The Mighty Avengers - Issue #4

Story by: Brian Michael Bendis & Frank Cho | Art by: Jason Keith | $2.99 USD, $3.75 CAN| marvel.com

Ultron just got hotter. Plus, even she recognizes our fascination with the end of the world. Plus, Ares kicks a$$! Well, not really a surprise but still fun. Black Widow's pissed 'cause it appears that Stark is dead & it's about to hit the fan. Plus, Sentry's going to have some more issues to deal with. Oy.

Uh-oh...Ultron's back! And boy does she look familiar. The team's confused and angry (like most teams I'd say). Now if they could just find Tony...

New Avengers - Issue #33

Story by: Brian Michael Bendis | Art by: Leinil Yu | $2.99 USD, $3.75 CAN| marvel.com

After the Civil War, Luke Cage, Spidey, Wolverine & Spider-Woman went underground. They meet up with Ronin, Dr. Strange & Iron Fist & head to Japan. Now, the group is back in the states & they're all paranoid. Plus, a creepy new creature shows up.

Post Civil War, now there's a new team. I must admit I do tend to side with the Cap but maybe Stark's got it figured out. Anywho...it'll be interesting to see if these guys can get it together.

New Avengers - Issue #31

Story by: Brian Michael Bendis | Art by: Leinil Yu | $2.99 USD, $3.75 CAN| marvel.com



First off, the top picture is a varient that I got at (surprise, surprise) Comic-Con. heh. So....I apparently missed ALOT between issues 27-30. I'm going to ComicsNStuff tomorrow to try and remedy this. The cover looks great though doesn't it?! Best line in this issue? "It's a Ninja tea party." Haha. Great fight scenes & wonderful last couple of pages.

Interesting art. Very Gustav Klimt. So Hawkeye is back! And he's on a mission to find the Scarlet Witch. Obviously, his brain insn't all back together yet, 'cause he makes a big whoopsie!

New Avengers - Issue #24

Story by: Brian Michael Bendis | Art by: Pascual Ferry | $2.99 USD, $3.75 CAN| marvel.com



I really like the Bendis/Ferry team. Or maybe I'm just partial to Capt. America. ANYWAY, the Sentry has some issues that he's trying to work out. He also gives a great summary of the roots of the Civil War (in case you didn't know). I sure wish he'd ignore a certain billionaire though.

Well, Thor didn't work out exactly as planned & now people are questioning their loyalties. Marriages are falling apart and teams are being re-arranged.

Civil War - Issue #3

Story by: Mark Millar | Art by: Steve McNiven, Dexter Vines & Mark Morales | $2.99 USD, $3.75 CAN | marvel.comWhoa, Peter Parker just came out! Well, I should say unmasked himself in front of the media. Meanwhile, Richard Reed goes to Wakanda to try and drum up some support while Iron Man checks on where Emma Frost & the school's alliances lie. The issue ends with a nice little Avenger vs. Avenger battle. Hey, wait a tick! Is that Thor...?!

Not a whole lot needs to be said about this one. It pretty much is what it is. And it's a chunky one!

Civil War - The Initiative

Story by: Brian Michael Bendis | Art by: Frank Cho | $3.99 USD, $4.75 CAN | marvel.com

[2nd Printing, varient cover]
Can't we all just get along?! No...no, we cannot. This is a nice introduction to all the splintered teams; Omega Flight, The Thunderbolts, and The Mighty Avengers. There's definately some struggles among the teams...people are started to feel conflicted. Who will change teams...? Hmm...

Mighty Avengers - Issue #1

Story by: Brian Michael Bendis | Art by: Frank Cho | $3.99 USD, $4.75 CAN | marvel.com

Well, the back of the comic was a lame ad for Spidey 3 so I decided to leave that out. Did you like that movie btw? I heard it was lame. One of these days I'll begrudgingly sit my lazy bum down and watch it. Who the hell casted Kirstin Dumbst anyway?! But I digress.

The Mighty Avengers: The Initiative. Good stuff, even if Iron Man picked the wrong side. heh. Because of the recent Civil War, the Avengers have become divided into two main groups: the "let's sign up with The Man so he can make us do His bidding" group & the "actually, we like our civil rights" group (headed by Captain America). In this issue Iron Man is trying to figure out who his team will consist of...and he has a fancy computer full of all the heroes that are at his disposal to help him decide.
