    Aaron basically said that issue 50 is the start of a long arc that will go well into 2022 and it will touch on everything he wrote in the last 15 years at.

    I'm pretty excited about simply because he's laid out the pieces now he just has to do something exciting with it.

    He set up the Squadron, The Council of Hel, Vampires, Avengers 1000000 BC, Baby Starbrand, The Red Guard, Phoenix, and Namor.

    I mean that is a hell of a lot of dangling plot threads that have not paid off in the least. So I hope next year we start seeing some of these threads being tied off.
    I wish I was more invested in this than I am.

    Aaron hasn't made it easy for long time fans.

    Let's hope for better days after issue 50

    Jason Aaron's writing has been marginally good enough to continue reading, but only because Tony, Steve and Thor are in the book.

    The main reason I barely read the book is because Tony is rarely in it. That and the stories that I read just didn’t do anything for me to continue pass them. Was Tony even in this weeks issue? Did he do anything?

    Is Howard Stark still a devil?

    He works for the devil. Basically Mephisto’s lapdog.

    He was nearly killed by gorilla man

    I think he's being set up for an important role given that he had that one-shot devoted to him meeting the ancient avengers. I think the one person who's really underused is Captain Marvel. We're heading into issue 50 and I don't think she's gotten a storyline where she's more the focus. Seems like she's been more of a mentor this series.

    Editorial is forcing Aaron to use her.

    I'm so little invested in it, that this week's issue was my last until he's gone. The Phoenix storyline was just the worst and I didn't even bother with the Reborn minis.

    I don't see it as having gone missing. It's quite often mentioned in Hank Pym and Avengers appreciation threads. I have the original, but I also have reprints in which this scene was excluded. It's a very weird and confusing scene (what does he mean with "now do me?" The imagination offers so many options).

    Peace

    The solicits mentioned that the 50th issue of this volume will be #750 overall. I hope that the book returns to the original number.

    Me too. Trying to track down back issues of titles in the comic shop is a nightmare. So many number ones every time a new creative team comes on board.

    How does the council of Hel differ from the Six Fingered Hand?

    750 won’t be until issue 60, because issue 10 of this run was the 700th issue
