    Default Avengers: Enter the Phoenix (Thoughts?)

    I’m just curious what everyone thinks about the current Avengers storyline. I personally feel like it’s being treated as a throwaway story. There is so much potential here but the lack of depth leaves the story feeling very shallow. Part of the problem for me is the choice of characters. I was so excited by the premise when details were released but this all feels like a huge missed opportunity. This story should have been a story closer in scope to King in Black.

    What are your thoughts?

    Anyone else think Jane Foster will be the host of the Phoenix when the dust settles? Personally I expected Marvel to use the Phoenix to bring Jane Foster back after she died.

    can't tell yet if this arc is worse than the Celestial one.

    it all depends on the next issue.

    It has convinced me that I won't be getting the next arc, Heroes Reborn, because this is just so bad. I hope Heroes Reborn will be the end of Aaron's run.

    I have been enjoying it quite frankly primarily because of BP. Aaron's BP is the one that BP fans such as myself has been crying for ever since Hudlin left over 5 years ago. Ta-Nehisi Coates/TNC's BP run and treatment of Tchalla has b en painfully hurtful and insulting to say the least.

    Aaron's BP in his Avengers has been pure hots-fire and brilliant.... As long as that maintains, I will continue to enjoy Aaron's avengers.

    i'm okay with not hearing about the phoenix for 10 years. especially now that literally dozens of heroes and others have been the avatar. it's not special anymore.

    It was a stupid idea that should never have gotten approved. When I see the ridiculous outfits coming out of this mess, it reminds me of some of the worst of the 90s!

    Firebird would have been the perfect host, oh well.Screenshot_20201122-200509.jpg
    I am a Marvel fan preferably cosmic storylines, especially Thanos or Dark Phoenix related, when both the Avengers and the X-Men are involved count me in, loved the original Uncanny Avengers series.
    Not a fan of any of the new characters.

    Aaron needs to stop writing about the Phoenix. He doesn’t understand the concept on a fundamental level.

    After todays issues, it is clear that it will be between 3 characters left, see Bleeding cool (so I do not add spoilers)

    https://bleedingcool.com/comics/narr...host-spoilers/

    But I doubt it will be the one they guess as that character just went through an change recently,. I think it is one of the other two.

    I feel this can be summed up as Beautiful Garbage
