He added stuff, changed stuff, some characters "died", He let two of the biggest names ( spidey and Wolverine) on the team, too much luke cage, they talk to much, they should be fighting galactic enemies not the Hood.
take your pick i have heard all of that and more. Me I enjoyed most of it.
Yeah, I'm sort of in the same boat. I do think there's a lot you can credibly criticise Bendis run for as far as characterization, continuity, pet charcters, etc.
That said, it was one of my favorite Avengers runs. It was a fun book using a lot of fun characters. And it made the Avengers feel as important as I at least felt it should have ALWAYS been. I think towards the end there, but I don't think he can be faulted for not. I don't believe anyone has ever written more issues of Avengers than him, and I'm not sure anyone ever will again.
The Gypsies had no home. The Doors had no bass.
Does our reality determine our fiction or does our fiction determine our reality?
Whenever the question comes up about who some mysterious person is or who is behind something the answer will always be Frank Stallone.
"This isn't a locking the barn doors after the horses ran way situation this is a burn the barn down after the horses ran away situation."
He only respects his own continuity and often failed to adhere to that
He called the Avengers bottom-feeders before disbanding them
He kills characters for sport instead of furthering the story and for attention
Jessica Jones' involvement with the team was 100% self-fan-service and nepotism of the highest order
He uses his own voice in lieu of writing characters as if they existed before him
A lot of the damage he did was written to be permanent or at least hard to undo ex. Having Cage impregnate and marry his pet character/having Doom impregnate that Perrara woman
He's, ironically, awful at writing women. I'm still angry about him having Carol Danvers cry in front of Norman Osborn. try to imagine Hawkeye doing the same.
I'm glad that he's gone. I wish they would erase all of his continuity and start fresh. One of Quesada's biggest failings was letting friendship influence his decision making.
