    He already said that was his approach: Every arc had to feel like an event.

    Most of the events are bad and incoherent so most of this comic is bad and incoherent.

    She'll probably be savage She-Hulk at first, although I don't know if that'll reflect the Aaron era design.

    Yeah, I expect her to be mostly in regular design in the show

    Oh, he's marking it. Marking EVERYTHING.


    Namor the Sub-Mariner, Marvel's oldest character, will have been published for 85 years in 2024. So where's my GOOD Namor anniversary ongoing, Marvel?

    LMAO! Oh Rev, you were so "on the mark" with this one! If you would have put his face on that dog doing that, I would have just, well, wet myself, LOL!!

    I'm not currently reading it, but if you go back a few pages, you'll see that opinions in general about it don't seem very favorable (though some claim to like it because you don't have to know anything of what came before to get into it, something that, as a long-time Avengers fan, doesn't hold much appeal to me, in particular).
    As For the line-up, I believe it's still Black Panther (leader), Captain America, Iron Man, Captain Marvel, Thor, She-Hulk (or Hulk, as they seem to prefer calling her now), Ghost Rider (the one with the car) and Blade.

    Peace

    I think the new Phoenix, Echo, has joined the team now too

    Please don’t insult The Crossing that way. Aaron is much worse.

    I also LOL at the restraining order comment.



    Now, them's fighting words. I liked some things in John's run, but Austen is, for me, the absolute worst point in Avengers history (and don't even get me started on how I despise Bendis' run, and he is not my most hated Avengers writer. That's HOW MUCH I hate Austen's run).
    I dropped Aaron's run after the second TPB, mostly because I found it BORING, and quite a bit stupid (the worst kind of stupid, the stupid that thinks he's being clever), but the level of rejection this run is getting is impressive. It's amazing how someone can go so wrong when putting the Avengers to clash with the Russian Super-Soldiers/ Winter Guard and the Squadron Supreme. That should have been an easy win.

    Peace
    The Crossing > Austen > Johns > Aaron

    Every arc had to fit snuggly in exactly one and only one trade is more like it

    The funny/sad thing about this book is that if you described it to someone without letting them read it it would sound like the most awesome comic Marvel puts out. The art is nice.

    Sigh, I totally agree.

    I want to love this book so much, but ever since the very first arc this title feels so disposable.

    It truly feels like a Marvel book from the Golden Age, where stories don't really have any continuity with the rest of the universe and each arc is the most "epic" the most "heroic" and the most "fun" but in the end it's none of those

    If I didn’t get free copies because I review the book, I’d have dropped this book years ago.
