All-New All-Different Avengers 1-8
It’s not a good sign that I barely remembered the existence of this title. (By the way, this box is basically Thor, but there’s some room in the box so I’m tossing in Marvel comics from the shelf to fill it out. Turns out it’s pretty much all Avengers stuff.)
This incarnation of Avengers is comprised of Tony Stark Iron Man, Sam Wilson Captain America, Jane Foster Thor, Vision, Ms Marvel, Nova, and Miles Morales Spider-Man. Not the worst mix of characters, and you’d think Mark Waid and Adam Kubert/Mahmud Asrar would be able to do more with it. But it’s all very blah. They fight Warbringer in the first arc, Kang in the second, and deal with the never-registered-on-my-radar Standoff crossover in the third. The kids act starstruck and overwhelmed the whole time and the adults barely have personalities.
Sweet Thor by Kubert. |
Cute. |
Alex Ross homage... |
...of this classic John Byrne cover. |
I expected more from Waid, and don’t know why past me stuck around for even more of this.
