Okay, so out of the five comics I read this week (Dark Avengers 5, Ultimate Spider-Man 133, Ultimatum 4 and Deadpool: Suicide Kings 3), this was the best one. Norman Osborn finally gets around to responding to the accusations Clint Barton raised back in New Avengers #50. That was 4 months ago for us, but really only a day or two for them.
Norman handles the juggling act very well, pointing out that Barton used to be a "bad guy" and that when he joined the Avengers, he was joining with two terrorists (Quicksilver & Scarlet Witch). And I feel this is a good beat for Bendis to hit on, giving the readers who were not aware of older back stories, some nice chunk of reasoning. And Osborn does have a very good point, one that makes me almost believe Osborn is a good guy.
On the Avengers side of the story, Sentry's back and dealing with the "death" experience is frightening to him, Osborn and the rest of the team. And for me, I'm not even sure this is Bob we're dealing with anymore. At the Avengers Tower, our little group only bickers more and the feeling that this team is even more dysfunctional then any of the other teams rings true again.
The book (minus the cliffhanger) boils down with the Avengers returning to their daily life after their first mission, the one plot worth noting is Moonstone rolling with Nor-Varr in "zee hey".
I like this issue much more than the last issue. I like the art, it's really fitting for the book and this is all very promising being that the Dark Avengers will be fighting the X-Men very soon. I'm excited! Pick this up people.
