Who else is reading this event? I picked up the first two issues, and they were entertaining. The AR feature is pretty cool too, especially on the #1 cover.
I do have a question though: How does Hope have the Pheonix's powers? I'm getting the impression it is already inside her, and on other pages, the Pheonix is barreling towards Earth. Help?

Your guess is as good as anyone's. My guess is that she may already have it innately, or since the Phoenix is on par with Beyonder level power it doesn't need to be in proximity to expand it's power influence. Phoenix can probably influence/affect people across a galaxy.

Okay, so I'm not missing an important story plot or comic book...
Sheesh. Marvel should really get their act togather.

I'm excited to see how all of it plays out. The confrontation between Cap and Cyclops felt a little forced to me. I mean, they are both super heroes who have saved the Earth together on multiple occasions and I just feel like they would have likely been on the same page. What I mean is, I feel like Cap would have been more likely to give Cyclops the benefit of the doubt and offered to help him rather than demand that he hand his granddaughter over so that the Avengers could sacrifice her for the greater good? Anyways, I guess they needed a reason to fight otherwise there would be no story so I'm cool with it.

The whole thing is HORRIBLE. Really crap writing. Bad.
Hope is the host for the Phoenix and she's a power mimic. So really she's mimicing the power of the Phoenix as it prepares her to be the new host.

I think they are setting the Utopia mutants as the new Brotherhood style group--to be perceived as villains.....Magneto, emma, juggernaut/Piotr, magick-demon girl, Namor, mini-sabretooth kid, etc, etc............If Hope becomes Phoenix then there ya go.
Wolverine , kitty and Rogue have the good kids school already going after all.

Spoilers for A V X VS title.....
Spoilers... Thing has never been shown to be truly stronger than Namor--more evenish than anything, and underwater Namor would slaughter Thing...sorry Marvel editorial you fail. Magneto controls electro-magnetism now--not just metal. He would slaughter Iron Man....Again, editorial fail. I even prefer the Avengers to X-Men, but really that is a bit ridiculous and just.... wrong!

I HATED Vs #1.
It was so stupid. Had Deus Ex Machina reasons for Iron Man and Thing winning. Iron Man has to use satellites that access Jupiter's Magnetic fields but it's still Magneto sensing the Phoenix and basically given up. Namor essentially knocks himself out with the giant sea monster sized fish that just happens to be swimming around San Francisco Bay? Marvel copped out with that series hardcore. They didn't want any one character to appear stronger then the other, to actually win, so they rigged the fights. It's dumb and the AvX title is horribly written. One of the worst event books ever written.

Hmm, yeah, we'll go with that. I enjoyed the first two issues, and I will pick up the rest, but I probably won't read buy into another crossover. The library will get it two weeks after the trade comes out.

The Avengers basically had to rely on the innate goodness of the X-Men to Win. Magneto basically cedes the fight to Iron Man, Colossus allows the Red Hulk to beat him down, otherwise he might've destroyed the spire that supports Utopia. And I honestly don't know how you can call the Namor/Thing fight a victory for either character.
The writing is just god awful! |
