		<description>:(

Wasp, Wonder Man, Ms. Marvel, Iron Man, and I&#039;m pretty sure Black Widow were all Avengers for the longest time back in the day. It&#039;s only Sentry and Ares who weren&#039;t Avengers ever before. And Spider-Woman, if she&#039;s on Mighty Avengers. It&#039;s tough keeping track which team she&#039;s on. But still. That&#039;s like 5 out of 8 classic Avengers, and two of them were founding Avengers to boot.

And they just finished AVENGENING that whole symbiote attack on NYC that Doom&#039;s lackeys unleashed, and probably cleared up all kinds of back AVENGENGING that Doom had coming. And they hit Doom and his Doombots and other bots while they were at it. And before that they were hitting Ultron who was going to blow up the world and AVENGENGED that.

New Avengers has less Avengers content, but they were fighting the Hood and his gang of C-listers, all of whom are unabashedly villains. They AVENGENED the crimes the Hood and Co. perpetrated and the savage, unwarranted treatment of Tigra.</description>

		<description>Andrew:  It&#039;s very simple:  Secret Invasion: Thor has all my hopes and dreams pinned on it right now and if it was anyone but Fraction, I&#039;d be very afraid that Thor&#039;d still be in that stupid diner in OK. =P

Pedro: Some day, sir, we will have an Avengers book... WITH AVENGERS IN IT.  AVENGING THINGS.  The Marvel Adventures line keeps me happy and humble (except for MA: Hulk.  Shame that.)
I was at least looking forward to getting a story with a clear villain, but if they are going to make the Skrulls a sympathy case, I think there&#039;s going to be a dramatic element that once again is passed by.  GIVE ME VILLAINS.  And let the Avengers hit them.</description>

		<description>It kind of totally sucks that both flavors of Avengers don&#039;t feature the characters we care and love for. They are still reasonably good stories but I&#039;m kind of bothered by the hi-jack. All I can really suggest to get your traditional Avengers on is to hit up the Marvel Adventures, but if you like Mighty pre SI ( which even I didn&#039;t) or NA pre SI, you are shit out of luck. Both of the books feel like some other books.

The other thing with Skrull Queen/Spider-woman is that her flaws are apparent once we know when she took over the life of Jessica Drew. I also kind of like the fact that she&#039;s not really this blood thirsty conqueror. I imagine that when she presents her plan to the population of earth, she make a convincing argument that will convince people that it may not be so bad to have someone like her in charge.</description>

		<description>Thor better knock some heads together or I&#039;m going to be sorely disappointed. Can&#039;t you just imagine it? On one side, a horde of super-skrulls, their attack craft, and all kinds of super-tech. On the other, Thor, and the might of all Asgard. 

Skrull Queen: This is our destiny! All is as the prophecy has foretold! Earth shall be ours!
Thor: Nay.</description>
