Avengers #3.1

These days, more than a few comics have "All-New" or just plain "New" slapped on their covers. After reading Avengers #3.1, I don't think I'd mind seeing "Classic" instead. Hey, it worked for Coca-Cola! Read Full Review

Avengers #3.1 is unapologetically a throwback to earlier eras in comics. There are a lot of panels per page, random hero cameos, thought bubbles, and some very old school superhero action from the team of Mark Waid and Barry Kitson. I love it. Read Full Review

There are lots of Avengers books out there right now, but this one may be the best of the bunch. Read Full Review

The Avengers #3.1 is an entertaining, if oddly structured, story that takes us back to a classic but relevant era. Read Full Review

Comics should try to become more and more like comics from the 60s because Waid and Kitson are showing us that was when the best comics were around. I love these .1 issues more than any other current series outside Mighty Thor

Cressida settles into the Avengers and starts pitting them against each other just as the team starts to gel. In both writing and art, this title teeters on a knife edge. It has to evoke the Silver Age without falling into the same narrative pitfalls or looking hopelessly dated. It's a ringing success in my opinion. This issue is mainly devoted to letting the plot chug ahead and so it's pretty light on characterization.
