the art... Why? This is not a good follow up style from the last issue

Slightly evil Falcon America is really starting to get on my nerves.

Nice to see the Fantastic Four still around

I am a little annoyed that the event seemed to effect Magneto despite the fact that his helmet was on through the entire thing. I understand that having him immune to the effects of Red Skull's power would have complicated things, but ignoring his helmet's capabilities is just lazy writing.

@grandsymbiote94: Just because he wraped himself into an american flag, he thinks that he suddenly became incredibly cool...

@grandsymbiote94: Mine too. Good news is it looks like everyone who was inverted will eventually be reverted back to normal; except Iron Man for some reason.

I wish Captain Falcon wasn't affected by the inversion, so we could see how he naturally acts as Avengers leader.

@superior_prime_maybe: Well, the art isn't bad... But it doesn't fit well for a follow style that's right.

@theblackhood: you know what's lazier writing, giving the helmet the power to block TP when initially his power was the reason and for some reason a writer though hell I know nothing as out magneto let's make his shiny helmet TP proof

@theblackhood: it's true, but there could be something to him, i mean in axis 4 he viewed the X-men vs human's speech and left, could mean something 0.0

@grandsymbiote94: right????? i mean i know it's not his fault but god i want him to get a back massage from bane

Agreed, he's a bit pompous with his arrogance.

His helmet would have stopped telepathy, but the whole Inversion thing was Magic, Dr Doom and Scarlet Witch doing their Hogwarts action to bring Xavier's personality to the front of the Red Onslaught, which then over-reached in its effects.

Do we know who the new Sorceress Supreme is? SW?

At this point is there anyone who isn't an Avenger?

the exchanges between spiderman and nova are pretty hilarious

@owie: Rumours are that's it's either Wanda or Magik...

Is that valkyrie? oh boy so glad she is still aorund.

You know I somehow totally missed the panel with him walking off. Thanks for pointing that out. Magneto is my absolute favorite comic character, so I look forward to see what he's going to do on his own.

Good lord why is it that the art is getting worse every issue.

@theblackhood: no problem man, I'm loving Magneto's solo series and his role in making a villains team in Axis :D

I have no complain whatsoever. The art is fine. Axis 4...someone or something was spying Magneto while walking away from Storm's speech. I'm glad Magneto wasn't the one giving the speech...otherwise...people would've call him a bigot...lol.

I'm glad they all FINALLY realized that Magneto was right. Mutant and human can't never be.

Im not a fan of Falcon America :/ he comes off like a middle schooler who was just picked to lead his P.E class in stretches

The best thing about this is Wolverine is not in this series.

My thoughts exactly. I haven't seen her sine Secret Avengers vol 1. I know she was in other books before but I didn't pick them up so nice to see her show up.

I remember when Ben, Reed and Sue became Avengers. Has Johnny ever become one?

I'm glad they finally referenced Richard Rider. Now that little squirt Sam knows what a real hero is

I see Hulking and Wiccan. That's nice.

Oh, and once again, identifying Thor as Thor in the opening pages. Verily.
