pretty pictures , but it doesn't change the fact that the current avengers and new avengers series suck. also marvel is going to have to work their asses of for me to like their events, and we all know they won't do that.

An what Im actually liking New Avengers I will admit it is slow at times but for the most part I like it. I dont see why people dont like it. Why dont you like it honestly?

LoL did you wink at me

because they are no longer heroes, the act like gods that pass judgement on others

Idk I can kinda see your point but then again they do show humanity like before BP blew up the planet if you read that issue.

@windcaster: You think who is who's father? You think Black Bolt is the Beyonders father? I thought the Beyonder was created from a Cosmic Cube that had been used by various people to come up with his personality?

@degraaf: I suspect he may be his father. It would explain a few things.

The artwork looks good and I'm making the guess that this will be an actual good event as in it won't be a disappointment and people who aren't interested will not be annoyed by this.

Age of Ultron was my first event in awhile, and it might be awhile before I do another. It was just not as engaging as I'd hoped and too drawn out. Wasn't terrible, but too much mediocrity for me to pay for it. Unfortunately it's jaded me to not going for this.

Meh, looks nice but I'm not really on the edge of my seat with this, not after the absolute disappointment AU was.

Haven't all Hickman's Avengers books been a prelude to Infinity? It's the major thing that's made them kind of boring.

This is my favorite comic right now overall, and as far as I'm concerned it is the only book in the endless sea of currently running Avengers titles that's even worth the money. I'm very anxious that an infinity tie in might end up ruining this series. Here's to hoping it doesn't.
