    A Treat

    Of the Avengers tie-ins to Avengers vs X-Men this one is my favorite. It's funny - this really has nothing to do with the current #AvX storyline. At least as of now, the story servers to give the Phoenix Force a richer history with the retcon that it came to Earth before it inhabited Jean Grey. But its a fun read anyway - reminds me of a 1970s Kung Fu movie or Kill Bill Vol 2. The appearance of Da Vinci made me double-check that this issue wasn't written by Johnathan Hickman. Anyway, it's a fun read and I think long-time readers of The New Avengers are having a good time even if they aren't reading the rest of #AvX.

This storyline has my curiosity. 8/10...
