hero_vs__villian's Dark Avengers #8 - Utopia Chapter 5 review

    Best issue by far!


    Well since I do not enjoy any Dark Avengers book mainly cause Bendis has done what I hope he could have done on it, Matt Fraction who is an amazing writer has pulled it off for me, an issue of Dark Avengers that I can say I love! The dialouge (after the Dark X-Men are fighting the old looking Sentinels) is really good. Fraction writes Osborn perfectly, and pulls off the fact that Dark Reign in the Marvel U is coming to an end. Luke Ross' pencils are terrific. 
    I love how he also writes Osborn weaking down. For those of you who read Invincible Iron Man, you know what I mean, how Osborn is showing that he cannot hold the power that has been given to him since S#@%$ Invasion, oh I'm sorry I meant Secret Invasion. Anywasy X-Men fans worth your money, Dark Avengers fans worth your money, especially since Emma Frost and Namor show who's side they are really on!

      Cyclops; mutant Messiah! 0

      Cyclops as the new mutant Messiah! A bit hypocritical really, as at the end of this issue the X-Men raise their ‘Utopia’ island from the sea and declare they want mutants to be separate from humans on the main land, but isn’t that what Magneto did with Asteroid M and what the X-Men are meant to fight against? Anyway, I loved this issue, the best of the cross over so far. Emma and Namor show their true colors to Osborn, which will lead into the big fight finale one-shot between the Dark Avengers ...

      I'll be honest, I read this the day it came out and was at a complete loss as to what to say about it or even what happened in the issue. Luke Ross is back & I feel like instead of giving us a copycat artist they could have given us someone who could make this book easy to follow. And while I feel that this story is leaps and bounds ahead of "Messiah War," I'm beginning to question where this is all supposed to go. I realize we've changed how mutants live, but why step into the Dark Avengers...
