    Avengers vs Namor

    Spoilers!

    Avengers vs X-men has been a mixed bag so far with the first act being pretty terrible and the second act being pretty good (obviously Adam Kubert and Olivier Coipel on art).

    The Good

    This issue continues from the last with Namor attacking Wakanda and hope escaping to Kun Lun and after these scenes it's basically a massive fight scene between the Avengers and Namor and it is an interesting fight compared to the fight scenes in the previous act. Since it's Bendis writing you might have some humorous dialogue and you do have some funny dialogue and humorous fighting scenes and you do. The first bit comes when Namor is flying through the air telling everyone they should die and then Cap throws his Shield at his face it's pretty funny to see. There's also a scene where Thing kicks Namor and says "that's just cos it's you that was a pretty great moment as well. The action scene is pretty dramatic with some great pieces of art from Adam Kubert. There's also a nice twist at the end with the Phoenix Five. It's also interesting to see how Proffesor Xavier is going to be involved in the Event. The art was nice some very dynamic pictures from Adam Kubert.

    The bad

    Nothing really happened in this issue it was really only a fight scene up to the last 6 pages.

    Poor Red Hulk

    4 stars.

With that in mind, I ranked this issue “average” for the event, but better than average in general, against other comics.I have been reading the event specific and tie-ins for this event pretty regularly. I have some catching up to do on the recent tie-ins, but you certainly do not need to read those to know what is going on in the main story.In this o...

      We are reaching an end game, with the pawns to decide the war being placed.THE GOODAs Namor invaded, we finally get to see the Xmen do something questionable. Of course, this will only mean that the Phoenix 5 are going to be suffering from some strife and suspicion, allowing the Avengers to recoup and prepare.I liked how strong Namor was represented, to the point where he could do such... cringe inducing damage to the Hulk. And how he kept just batting away the fighters like fly's. Writing was a...
