New Avengers #55 Reviewed

Luke Cage has a man-crush on Spider-Man, Bendis has a man-crush on Luke Cage.

"They should de-power Norman, and make it so he can never have power again. Locking him up wont do it. Killing him is wrong. Killing is wrong. If they're defending life, they shouldn't take it, or they're just as bad as the people they fight that call them loose cannons.   Norman fancies himself a god. Take that power away, neuter him and you beat him.

And as far as Clint's comment.... He died. Nothing was the same when he woke up. When he died, the heroes were still heroes. Mutants where thriving, and the villains lived in fear. He came back and Cap was dead, Tony was partly responsible, and villains were chipped and signed up with the SRA. Now Villains rule the world, Cap's still MIA, Tony's on the run, along with the rest of the world's heroes, there's two new Hawkeye's and a Dark Avengers. The one thing in the world he always thought would last, the Avengers, has become a perversion, and he can't even call himself Hawkey anymore. He died, woke up and everything changed. He should be different. He should want Osborn dead. "

Well with Norman a killer, and in war people die...

Norman needs to be Punished.

I'm with Clint ... KILL.

This sounds like there should be a build up to the ultimate battle between Spidey and Green Goblin

"  It's just The Hood, not Red Hood. Also, "that dude" is Chemistro. I thought this was a good issue and I'm looking forward to see where its going. Then again, I'm kind of a blind Bendis worshiper. "

Shouldn't the new Avenger act like Batman in The Dark Knight? I mean they could do the "right thing" because technically they are not hero (aren't they fugitive?) and work outside the law.

Or like Comedian said that "they" society only protection (from themself and any other thing, they are vigilante anyway.

Norman is a mad dog and should be taken out back and shot

I don't get how they were all taken out so quickly. Yeah their powers would have been turned off but together they've got so much experience. It wouldn't affect Ronin, Cap or Mockingbird. Spider-Woman and Ms. Marvel both have experience with losing their powers. Sure some of them were in the air but c'mon.
 
I was kinda hoping this was gonna be one of those issues where the badguys have the power nullifier and think they've got it made but still get their butts handed to them. I also find it crazy that this is the team that's having such a hard time interpersonally while the Mighty Avengers has some of the most stubborn and unstable Avengers. Hank Pym, Hercules, USAgent, Quicksilver, Amadeus Cho? Maybe this issue was made to make the Mighty Avengers look good.

I love this issue, first off ya got Spiderman totally paranoid about revealing to the team that he is Peter Parker, which he should be it was very dumb idea Daredevil would agree (see ASM #600 Matt lays down how envious he is of Peter). Next, you also have the Avengers life without a Butler and wow, I can see Wolverine living like that, but the ladies should be ashamed of themselves lol. But my favorite part of the issue, no srcew that of Benis writing is his ability to tell the villians side of the story. Not all The Hood's goons are morons and the Avengers are going to find that out the hard way, it kind of makes me wonder how this would have went down if Tony was on the team.
 Im still not a big fan of the "group of heroes" in this book, but I enjoy reading about the many things that are going on around them, and the next issue is going to be amazing!

You can't kill Norman the way he is now. You are going to have to drag him down and let the world see his true colors. Otherwise you could just make him a martyr to his cause and you'd create more of him.

I would hope not.  Since murder's illegal, I'd hate to see any CV users go to jail. "

I say kill   Clint for even thinking of killing Osborn. Sorry as of late I am just not a fan of Clint.

give osborn a lobotomy cause he'd still be alive but he'd be a vegtable so he wouldn't cause any trouble

personally i wouldn't go with hawkeyes suggestion

I'm with Clint with guys like Osborn you just have to kill them. They're too big to just be let roaming around or going to jail. I hope some day its really Spider-man (maybe not the baseline 616 version) that does the killing

I'm not so messed up by the art since I'm so use to reading Ultimate Spider-Man, but the power drainer could have been build during Civil War, by the Pro-Register team or something and also just because it's Stark Tech, dosen't mean it was made by Tony

Has Clint ever been much of the really good guy, I mean his name of Hawkeye is getting ruined by Bullseye.

Now he is getting put in his place by Spider-Man:)

Yeah, Clint used to be fun.  Now...?

What can they do about Norman Osborn? He's been arrested, what once while he was a criminal. Now he is the law of the land, how do you put that in prison?
 
On a side note, I hate how Clint acts like he has it so bad. He needs to grow up.
