Comic Watch - Matt Meyer
Jul 21, 2020Avengers #34 is a near-perfect combination of big ideas and gut-check execution, throwing readers for a loop right from the jump and not letting off the throttle until the last page. If you've been away from this book for any reason, NOW is the time to come back! Read Full Review

Weird Science Marvel Comics - Jim Werner
Jul 15, 2020Avengers #34 continues the Age of Khonshu story, and Jason Aaron reveals the Moon Knight behind the curtain while remembering this is an Avengers book as well. That last part is what has me excited about this book after being down for so long. Read Full Review

Word Of The Nerd - Brent Jackson
Jul 15, 2020I just couldn't get into The Avengers #34, which is strange, because I liked the previous issue and I am a big Moon Knight fan. The pacing and storytelling just felt off. The dialogue for Moon Knight and other characters just did not seem to fit, either. The art, while not bad, still didn't feel as connective as the previous issue. It kind of brought down the hype for me for the "Age of Khonshu" storyline some. I am hoping the next two issues will get me back on board. Read Full Review

Jul 20, 2020This issue ties into Avengers plot points all the way back to #1 and gives us a glimpse of what happens when gods go bad... It's a pretty good book. Read Full Review

AIPT - David Brooke
Jul 15, 2020I'm game to keep reading this story, but a lot of the wind was knocked out of it with this issue. Garron and color artist Jason Keith continue to do solid work, though it's filled with dialogue explaining how we got here throughout. This is a story I want to like, but am shocked at how little it all matters due to the mechanic of showing us past and present. Read Full Review

Razorfine - Alan Rapp
Jul 20, 2020It's hard to separate the tone-deaf Black Panther scenes from the rest of the story, which is a serviceable middle-issue to the larger arc foreshadowing more trouble to come and a larger threat still yet to be identified. Read Full Review

Glad we got an explanation for moon knights heel turn but it still seems a little too forced but this is probably the best the avengers has been in a while.

Man, this is another issue that's a bit off. I really am disappointed by that. I was so excited for this arc, and it just really bothers me that I bought the hype. That being said, there are some really great lines in this book. It's not enough to make up for the pacing of the issue or so-so characterization of Moon Knight, but it did lessen the blow significantly for me. Also, I gotta say, I'm not digging the art. It's as off as the writing.

7.0
It's a shore for me to read this book right now. Garron's art and Keith's colors are great but the whole package feels incomplete. The writing is intentionally evasive to evoke suspense but lacks the punch it thinks it's making. I'm still here because I just wanted to have the JLA=Squadron Supreme take on the Avengers as promised last year so every story feels like filler waiting for that showdown.

This arc feels like the Platonic archetype of the "apocalypse everybody forgets about after a week" story.

I'm still just not really enjoying this, and I don't quite know why. Usually this is the kind of plot I'm into!
