I actually had no interest in this event, but it's starting to grow on me. Maybe it's because Red Skull is the villain I despise most (as in, if he was actually real I'd hate him the most as a person)

Good guys fight normal villains which become more powerful for the cross-over then lose the power at the end.

"Time for the villains to step forward and cause major problems!", who'd a thunk it? The villains actually acting villainous! What's next, the heroes fighting each other? Those guys at Marvel really pulling all the strings at the moment.

Remender's always got his weird ideas that just somehow work and entertain. Definitively checking this out.

All you people would ever say was that you were tired of hero vs hero and that villains needed to make a big comeback. So they gave it to you and now you won't stop complaining about that.

As much as I'm currently enjoying Uncanny Avengers, I'm really not looking forward to seeing Red Skull and the S-Men again.

I really hoped Remender had given up on the terrible Red Skull Onslaught story.

Seeing this fills me with great disappointment and sadness.

Oh yeah can't wait for Forever Evil! Wait, didn't that just end? Oh... so this isn't the same thing? It's Marvel's turn you say? Are you sure? Huh... what a coincidence.

So that's why Red Skull is dressed like Onslaught in the pic. But is that Norman Osborn on the left (once you flip the picture upside-down so that the villains are right-side-up) , with the Goblin ears, but no other face covering? That's weird. At first I thought that was Super-Skrull, but once I got a better look, it does look an awful lot like Osborn. It also looks like he's wearing Captain America's shirt with something else over it. And I assume that's Carnage on the other side. But who is that between Loki and Red Skull?

It was supposed to be Green Goblin, but they changed it to Hobgoblin at the last minute and recolored it.

Loki's evil again? And is that Sin or Onslaught in the front?

Given how long it's been heroes fighting heroes, yes. Yes it is.

@roastedray: yeah, I agree with you. Fans complain when heroes fight villains, they complain when heroes fight heroes. Marvel just can't win with some fans. I'm looking forward to this event. I like Remenders stuff, he's abut too liberal on killing characters and stuff but is a good writer.

The only problem I have with this is that for an Avengers/X-men team up it seems really really light on actual X-men characters. Of the characters in the picture, only Storm is an X-man. I am glad that they are including Magneto in the crossover, though I am guessing his involvement will likely be on the outskirts when he should really be front and center. I do think this will be a good event, but I really hope Magneto gets to put down Red Skull's Nazi ass as he deserves the kill.

@xwraith: She's been alive in the all female X-Men team since it's start, unless she died after like issue 5 which is when I dropped it.

I like Remender work but after Forever Evil and Age of Ultron I'm still burnt out on events.

@granitesoldier: I dropped it after issue four, but I do know she was removed from the team after her death (and not brought back).

As for Remender, I love Uncanny X-Force, but I've heard his Marvel stuff since then hasn't been so good.

@granitesoldier: There was an issue in Uncanny Avengers (number 14 if I remember right) where her and Scarlet Witch both died.

Then they did a time travel story and they're not dead anymore.
