Marvel Reveals Cover to AVENGERS VS. X-MEN: CONSEQUENCES #1

If you've read AVENGERS VS. X-MEN #11, you know something pretty big just happened.

This week's issue of AVENGERS VS. X-MEN just amped up the story. Something pretty big happened. A character was killed by another hero. We have seen comic book deaths many times. This character in particular has 'died' numerous times as well. It's more about how it happened and who it was that did it which is making the waves.

Something like this needs to be addressed. Marvel has released the cover to AVENGERS VS. X-MEN: CONSEQUENCES #1. Do we need a five issue miniseries to deal with this? Perhaps we do. It's a weekly series that should lead up to the Marvel NOW! issues.

No Caption Provided
After the biggest comic event of the year comes to its stunning conclusion, the Marvel Universe is left reeling—enter Avengers VS. X-Men: Consequences. This powerful weekly five issue limited series from acclaimed writer Kieron Gillen (Uncanny X-Men, upcoming Iron Man) and five of the most dynamic artists in the industry shows just what happens to the Marvel Universe after the dust settles from Avengers VS. X-Men. Who will survive? Can the Avengers and X-Men ever peacefully co-exist again? And what is the fate of Cyclops? The answers arrive here!

Don’t miss out on the first chapter of the limited series event of the fall in Avengers VS. X-Men: Consequences #1, on sale October 10th in comic shops everywhere, on the Marvel Comics app, and the all-new Marvel Comics Webstore!

I was thinking this could eventually be overlooked like the heroes usually always tend to do. World War Hulk, Shadowland. Major things happened making it seem like Hulk and Daredevil could never redeem themselves, but they obviously have. Then I think of Scott Summers, and what he did in AVX# 11. I don't think that'll be possible.

I'm definitely not thinking about reading this because there's already too many books tied in to AvX to handle.

Hello this is Marvel where Avengers always win (even if they are assholes) and where everyone else is a bad guy. Also in Marvel you will notice that characters like Wolverine, who in his entire life has killed more people than half the villains, will always be forgiven and never pay for his crimes while others e.g, Cyclops who try to fight for what they believe in and save their kind with as less bloodshed as possible, will be persecuted, and killed on sight.

So true...Unfortunately...

Why are you people defending Cyclops? He was an asshole before AvX he's an asshole during AvX. It's just another thing for you people to bitch about because there's not a single marvel fan but me here.

And a ignorant one at that.

Its not his fault. He just refuses to believe Marvel is evil now. Disney does well to hide its evil behind colorful animals and show tunes.

Lets look at it like this people. Ever since Flashpoint, Marvel has had Fear Itself, and Avengers Vs X-men. Both were stories that were over hyped and dragged on for more issues than what it was told in. Not only that but marvel pages in their comics have dropped again leaving us with a smaller comic.

Dear Marvel/Disney Execs:

I am an angry fanboy. yes im sure you get that alot. but rather than my constant nerd rage which is spewed across this internet and even swearing. Ive decided to come to a better decision that is mutually beneficial for both. I am dropping all of you comic books now.

Why you may ask would I do that? well for one you give us less content in a single issue and drive up the price. if you want to make a difference and show your sincerity for the fans you will do the following things and drive up competition for your main competitor DC.

  • You will replace the high glossy pages you currently put in your books with recycled newsprint paper. yes a comic may degrade faster if not taken care of but that is the point.
  • Increase the number of pages in comics to 32 pages and those are pages that are not ads.
  • You will also stop abusing your current audience with ill concieved "Major events" just to try to sell to an average market.
  • Stop using Death as a gimmick to try to boost sales when you are planning to bring them back only a few months later, have some class.

Then and only then if these demands are met I will continue to pick up my few titles from marvel. Though I hold no grudge against Dan Slott and his amazing work. I will do what I need to in order to get my point across. Have a good time marvel I am now officially done pick up your comics.

Cap wants hope, Cyke says no & tells him to leave, cap wont take no for answer, so cyke attacked.. People act as if you disobey the avengers that makes you a villain. when really thats not the case. the P5 exist because the avengers messed with the PF & to make matters worse after the x men became the P5, stopped fighting the Avengers, tried to make the world a better place & were relaxing in there home

No Caption Provided

& the avengers evade there home again.. leading to the x men retaliating & then we end up with this...

Dark Phoenix Cyclops
Dark Phoenix Cyclops

notice.. Professor x didnt step in UNTIL the x men starting fighting back

Anyone who says this is purely Cykes fault isnt reading the event correctly

I agree. Though nearly everyone in this entire event is written out of character or amped up to the extreme.

@AgeofHurricane: That doesn't make... any sense. I don't have any stake in the Avengers vs X-Men event. I don't give a flying rat's ass on who 'd win. Therefore I'm not pleased or displeased. And if you're trying to suggest that I'm whining, I'd refer you to a dictionary seeing as making one comment on a subject, from a neutral point of view, isn't the equal of 'whining'.

Seriously, I'm not in the mood to actually go back and look if you're one of the people here who was crying about his favorite X-Men losing a comic book battle or not. But if you were, than you seriously need to learn how to deal with criticism. If you weren't, than you're probably out to start a pointless discussion over the internet. Which is fine by me, a healthy discussion is always welcome. But seeing as you're starting this one without any actual content. I think I'll pass on this one.

I trust Kieron Gillen, since he's been working wonders with every character on Uncanny X-Men.

He and he alone can give us a satisfying conclusion to Phoenix Scott.

Probably not since this entire event has been an abomination and just went full blown stupid.

There can never be a satisfying, or logical conclusion to this event if it ends with Scott dying. He did absolutely NOTHING wrong the entire event. It was the Avengers poking him with a stick the whole time. He never attacked them first, it was only in defense.

I mean...when Reed Richards tells you that you should stop antagonizing him and just let him fix the world; you should probably listen to him.

Spoilers: He was right.

Iceman leaving Scotts side made no sense. Like 5 pages prior to the big fight he told Xavier that he loved Scott and he was his brother. Then he tells Scott that he hates him and is sick of him? What..?

So basically, EVERYONE he thought was his friend betrayed him and they pretty much forced him to retaliate against Xavier. And even with all of that power he was disgusted with himself and upset that it had come to this, he told them to leave him alone and they just wouldn't listen.

The Avengers pushed him to become the Dark Phoenix just like the Hellfire Club did it to Jean.

The really sucky thing about Avengers vs X-Men is that they gave away the ending to the story by showing us all this stuff like Marvel Now stuff and the All New X-Men series. That stuff would have been amazing as end of issue shockers instead of something we've been knowing about for months prior.

@DJ1107: I was. But after knowing yet again Marvel is going to make another event after an event and an event after an event of an event, it makes it easier to know why i GAVE up on them. They did Fear Itself and then had an aftermath series while AVX was going on, and now, they are going to have AVX: Consequences AND A+X! WTF?!?!?!

Makes you wonder why i am going to spend the 50 and get this off Amazon in November...

So it seems like Avengers vs X-Men Consequences is the setup for Marvel Now, similar to how Flashpoint sets up DC's New 52, except its not a reboot for Marvel.

Have anyone your read AVX 11. As it is kinda just Scott there.

The X-Men are teaming up with the Avengers.

Also, Series has been showing that in the end, the Avengers are right, as the phoenix force destroyed a world on the way back to earth. And the Avengers know it. Although they did do some morally gray things there. Which has been called out on, in the tie ins. So Marvel realizes that the Avengers are not being morally clean as well.

The only reason this is slightly interesting is because this will lead into Marvel Now, so I am curious how everything comes together. In regards to Avengers vs X-Men..great idea but just really bad execution

First it was hyped Cable would have a major role in the story...Haven't seen him yet, so the x-santion books were pointless

then they hyped this to be a giant slugfest, but gave us weak match ups with cheesy winners...AvsX was a waste of money

I think they were better served calling this something else, because this really wasn't the X-men fighting the Avengers, this is about Scott fighting to save his species but losing control of his powers and himself.

That would have made a far more interesting series. but all of that would have been excused if the fights were actually good!!

I would have been all in seeing a good Cap/Cyclops fight, but the best fights were Avengers vs Avengers

(Cap kicking Wolverine out of the plane..Namor vs Wakanda)

But between the story falling flat and losing steam, and the numerous tie-ins, thank goodness for Marvel NOW because I don't think I could handle a Bendis Avengers run for much longer in Marvel
