Avengers #22

Avengers #22 has the team embark on a mission unlike anything they've done before: a sleek and exhilarating heist of epic proportions, with a few twists and turns to leave you wanting more. Read Full Review

While its guest star may have a fleeting presence, Avengers #22 is a fun heist that manages to push the ongoing story forward. It's also a reminder that this is one of Marvel's most underrated titles. Read Full Review

Karami delivers some compelling visuals throughout the issue. The visual style is interesting, but didnt really connect with me as far as the look of the characters. Read Full Review

And then theres the fact that Black Cat is fashionably late for her guest appearance in the issue. Shes right there on the cover--the ONLY character on the cover who appears in person and she doesnt even show-up until right around the end of the issue. So its a bit of a disappointment that shes not playing a bigger part in the outset of the multi-issue story. Its too bad that she couldnt have been brought-in a little bit earlier.  Read Full Review

Avengers #22 gets back on to the main plot with a fun story to do it. While its not exactly new to them, seeing the Avengers engage in a heist is a little fun and changes things up a little. Some of it is a little too over the top, but its not so bad seeing some characters out of their element, thankfully because its part of their plan and not bad writing. Other than that, the cover kind of spoils the big reveal at the end. Read Full Review

Plot Wanda Maximoff set out to investigate the whereabouts of Kang's "missing moment" by asking demons, ghosts, and any being from other worlds and they gave her an important clue. Kang's "missing moment" is going to be auctioned off at Grandmaster's Biggest Casino of the Eight Cosmos, so Captain Marvel organizes a robbery, where all the Avengers play a key role. Storm and Wanda act out a fictional fight to get attention, while Tony, Carol, and Sam dressed as the Wizard of Oz arrive at the vault, to discover that it has already been stolen. Vision discovers that the person responsible for the robbery is Black Cat who is working with Kang, as well as Myrddin and Grandmaster have an alliance. Art With many textures that allow the i mpressive details of this illustrator to stand out, where the facial expressions are almost real. The color palette works in order to highlight all those textures. The art is mesmerizing and magnificent. Summary The Avengers try to steal the "missing moment" but Black Cat got ahead of them. Excellent new story arc full of robberies and mystery more

The one thing going for this issue is that the characters seem like they're having fun, but most of it just silly. What the hell is the Black Cat doing is space? It just doesn't make any sense. And what was with Tony and Sam being the Tin Man and the Cowardly Lion respectively? And with an umbrella in space? WTF. The art was good and like I said, the characters where having fun, so I did as well, but in the end, it's just silly. My Comic Review Channel - https://youtu.be/PpZnKwHTmXw

Fun start of a heist story and looking forward to Felicia being in the next few issues as Mackay seems to be at his best writing her. On the other hand, Scarlet Witch constantly talking in the third person and self flossing was just pain full to read.

I liked Farid Karami‘s art much better than that of regular artist Valerio Schiti, but that’s about the only positive thing I can say about this issue. This title is just not fun. There’s no synergy, no magic, even when heavyweights like Storm and the Scarlet Witch are battling it out. This issue also suffers from the same problem I see in many Marvel titles lately: there’s no arc of suspense, the issue just ends at some point. I started reading Avengers because of Storm, but honestly it’s such a bore - I might as well drop it.

I did not read #22 yet only read up to #21 but your on target. The stories are too predictable, like ofcourse most comics we kind of know how it will end but its the in-between how you get there is what keeps you. There is no in-between solid build up in most of Jed Mackays issues here...
