I think I understand.
So, Bendis needs to write this big Secret Invasion plot and work out a complex timeline for events to occur and hand them down the lines of editorial and otherwise, create this massive summer event. He seems like a hands-on kind of guy, not one to sit on the sidelines and work [...]

All You Need to Know - New Avengers #42 and Mighty Avengers #15
July 7, 2008 – 2:23 pm
Okay, so I was minding my own business on the week of June 25th, seeing as it was my birthday and whatnot when I was DELUGED by Avengers titles. Everyone Marvel could think of came out that week, leaving me no choice but to read all of them.
Let’s start at the beginning, the two major [...]

Ares is on the Mighty Avengers, right? So we get one Avenger for a few panels! YAY.
I’ll just come out and say it: this should have been a mini called ‘Nick Fury: Secret Files’ or something. I think it does a disservice to the Avengers to have him take over BOTH [...]
All You Need to Know - New Avengers #40

Ever just wanted to pick up a book with the people on the cover on the inside of the book? I mean, you pick up a book called ‘New Avengers’ and sort expect to see… well, AVENGERS.
Not so this issue.
I will say this, Jim CHeung’s artwork is really great. Every Skrull he draws has a [...]
All You Need to Know - Secret Invasion #1

I liked it.
I know, I’m just as surprised as you are. Spoilers do follow.
There it was, recon city staring the two teams of Avengers I just couldn’t get to like no matter how many likable characters they contained. Here was Brian Bendis, someone I thought hd jumped the shark when it came to being automatically [...]
All You Need to Know - New Avengers #38
February 21, 2008 – 9:49 am
So I’ve kind of been waiting for the actual issue to show up because, for any of you who actually got New Avengers #38, you were treated to a fantastic book that nearly lacked the Avengers entirely. But since Funnybook Babylon went at it for me on most points, I can kind of drag [...]
All You Need to Know - New Avengers Annual #2
February 13, 2008 – 4:00 pm
Hey! Look at this! I’m on a roll.
I do apologize for not having the incredible arc of ‘Oh There’s Symbiotes and Now There’s Not Let’s Go Fight Doom!’ in Mighty Avengers wrapped up, but sadly the store was shorted out allotment and I would never ever go into a customer’s pull to fulfill [...]
All You Need to Know - Mighty Avengers #7
February 12, 2008 – 11:18 pm
At least one of you has been wondering where the next Mighty Avengers review as we got a couple issues in lovingly drawn by the Mighty Magic Machine, Mark Bagley. I’ve been wondering when I was going to get around to the start of the next arc of Bendis’ more ‘traditional’ Avengers rock’em-sock’em comic.
Funny [...]

Alright Christmas shoppers, stay at home. You’ve done your bit for king and country and if you show up at the store now, I won’t be deterred from making sure you leave with the Frank Miller Library’s Sin City Set Two.
Right. So I was planning on going back and finding all the previous 5 issues [...]
All You Need to Know - New Avengers #37
December 19, 2007 – 2:11 pm
So here I am, back from a little self-imposed exile from home and computer (stupid non-disclosure agreement!) and to what do my wondrous eyes do appear by Avengers books from far and near! I didn’t get a chance to hit up a comic shop while I was LA last week so when I came back [...]
