Has anybody stopped and counted all the heroes that wouldn't be affected by the Alchemist's Clean Slate?
Iron Man War Machine Hawkeye Black Widow Thor Venom Ant-Man Wasp Dr. Strange Ghost Rider Black Panther Those are just the major players right off he top of my head. The list of villians isn't exactly short either. But it is the way a teenager would think, so Christos Gage is doing that right.

Zed and Jmaq's conversation should be justification enough to show that editorial at marvel hasn't been doing a good job over the past 20 years--since the early 90's really. Brevoort was the last good Editor they had and he gave up years ago apparently... Zed and JMaq both make good points Emma is a manipulative Beeyotch, her monologue shows her past as being self-serving, evil, and unscrupulous. her monologue shows her present as she likes the x-men and scott, and is self-serving, conniving and a beeyotch. Really they are just different shades.....Emma will reveal herself to be a troll and a traitor. Scott will die horribly or make an ultimate sacrifice or something--or that role will fall to magneto--making him a mutant messiah. In any event, no one will "win", and the Avengers will land on top because they have the "hot" momentum right now, but Cap and Tony will realize everything went too far and they will strat working together to better humanity...the end.

My take was that Phoenix thought he was weak so took the power back and re-allocated it. But really, does any of this shite make sense?

Ok just finished this series and here are my thoughts.
-Good story but way too long of a series probably should have been 6 maybe 8 issues. The splitting of the Phoneix was an added wrinkle that just prolonged the obvious. -The VS books were a mess, and proof positive is the fact that issue 6 is a comlete throw away issue. The individual fights might have been better for... -The tie in issues...WHICH were TERRIBLE. Overall a C for the entire series. Great idea, probably a good launching point for the Marvel Now books, but this series fell flat as hell. |

Great idea, probably a good launching point for the Marvel Now books, but this series fell flat as hell. SPOILERS for those that haven't read it and might care: It's basically Pixie and Squirrel Girl playing what looks like Heroclix, with SG playing the Avengers and Pixie playing the X-Men. The Thing pops in and takes away their toys, warning them that they were made by the Puppet Master. Cue the typical: "Ohmigosh, You don't think we...?" "Let's never talk about this, ever...." You can see it HERE. Most of AvX VS #6 was comedy oriented. It was pretty amusing. But yes, overall the event was a mess. Poorly-written characters abound, though none more so than Cyclops and Captain America. A huge chunk of the Phoenix continuity was completely ignored ("Oh, hey Rachel. No, we just won't mention that time that you were the host for the Phoenix for an extended time and had no problems controlling it whatsoever. IT HAS TO BE HOPE!!!!"). Ironically, I did like the way Hope was written (and has been written since she arrived in the present). Yeah, she's basically a snotty little brat, but she's a fun snotty little brat. And I think I'd read an entire series based on Spider-Man and Hope, but then again Spider-Man can be enjoyable when paired with just about any character, if the writing is halfway decent (and all things considered, Spider-Man was probably one of the better-written characters in the event). And honestly, Uncanny Avengers looks like fun despite the usual suspects bashing it for making certain segments of the X-Men "look bad." That, and the last page is one of the most bats**t crazy comic-book panels in recent memory, in a good way....Kinda like when a Russian Werebear rode a Dragon....
