The New Avengers Discussion Thread

New Avengers is nowhere near as bad as people say.

I like the chemistry between the characters. Spidey for a guy whos been down lately sure cracks a lot of jokes in the book. They need a powerhouse though.

I guess you forgot that Dr. Strange was on the team.

No, I didnt. I meant a powerhouse in terms of raw strength. I like Dr.Strange but I wanna see someone that can kick ass on his own, no magic. M.A has Ares, Ms.Marvel, Sentry. Maybe after WWH is over he'll join the team or at least someone like that.

Don't forget Simon Williams the man of Wonders.

I didnt forget about him but I dont think he is at the same level as Sentry, Ares or Ms.Marvel. He is just a mid-carter.

Who has beaten the Hulk (sort of) and Abomination. Simon has fought Hercules to a standstill and knocked out Thor.

Maybe but this time around he doesnt seem to be that much of a powerhouse. He is overshadowed by the other guys.

This maybe a dumb question..Dident Marvel stop the new avengers run at 30, and is contiuing with the Mighty Avengers?

Nope; they're two different teams now.

Mighty are the Pro-Reg, while New are the rebel Anti-Reg.

The thing Im liking about NA is that it seems to be on their way to answer some unresolved questions going all the way back to NA # 1.

Thats pretty much the only reason i'm picking this book up

Oh and for Hawkeye 😄

But, I could still do without Cage's stupid rants about how he doesn't trust anyone 😬

Agreed.

Iron Fist? Spiderman? Wolverine? Doc Strange? Hawkeye? 👆 👆 👆

Cage? Meh.

Is this title any good? I was thinking about picking it up, but I don't wanna waste money on a shitty book. 😬

It's OK

Besides the awful characterization of Dr. Strange and Wong, and Bendis's inability to write Spidey in a dark tone like he should be right now, its decent.

The art is incredible, but the story is just...well...meh.

Looking for a good combination of story and art?

Check out the Immortal Iron Fist.

They've spent a good long time doing jack...

Hell, they stretched out maybe three different crappy ninja fights over about four issues...

Meh. ermm

Its an awesome book, I like the characterizations of everyone (except for Wong, can't recall him ever being quite as snotty as he's made out to be).

This books seems to be about answering some of the questions as the what's up with the current state of the MU and segues into the next big event so thats another reason for me to continue.
