Mighty Avengers #4.INH

This is a title not to be passed over. It is brilliant and is bringing a lot of Marvel characters that truly need time to shine in their own book. Plus it has the Superior Spider-Man and right now that equals gold. Read Full Review

Mighty Avengers #4 was an enjoyable read overall, with enjoyable characters and a status quo with lots of potential. While the tie-in aspect is rather pointless so far and the art devise at best, this is easily one of if not the best Avengers titles currently available to read. Make sure not to miss out on it.

The best part of this issue is that I was able to say all that about it and not even mention the corporate espionage with Inhuman ties subplot that began to develop and the inevitable conflict that Spider-Mans ego and superiority complex have created leading directly into next issue. This isnt really the most high profile Avengers team, but its quickly becoming one of my favorites every month, and if they can manage to stay relatively street level with the amount of magic thats sure to be flying around, even better.

In the aftermath of Infinity, this was the best transition you could get from this team moving forward. The birth of the new Ronin from Spider-Hero has come, and now is just waiting for the big reveal as to who's behind the mask(for those of us who didn't see the spoiler a few months ago). It should be very interesting to see where this little development leads to at the very end, but it's definitely something that may catch you off guard. Not because of who it is, but just because you'd question who'd really challenge Luke in that type of manner. Read Full Review

But I have to give Al Ewing and company a lot of credit - that despite that lack of action, this book winds up still remaining eminently readable, and even fun. Not exactly the kind of reaction you expected to get when Marvel announced their latest Avengers cash-grab tie-in, right? In certain ways, Al Ewing winds up perfecting that old Brian Michael Bendis chestnut - this is a book about the Avengers doing little more than talking, but thanks to Ewing shedding more light on the team's dynamic and characterization, it's not a bad way to pass the time.

So check into Mighty Avengers, because it's a damn good time featuring a nice mix of very popular characters and folks you don't often see – including a Blue Marvel team-up with Hauptmann Deutschland, The Captain America of Germany. That happens in Mighty Avengers #4. You know you want to see that. Read Full Review

I have to give this comic credit, it's touching on everything I like about modern superhero comics. The characters are people first, with the book focusing on the lot of them hanging out, chatting, and talking like normal people about their superhero business. Read Full Review

While I'm not completely sold on the need for yet another Avengers title, I like the team that's assembling here and Ewing's comfort within the Marvel Universe. Through the filter of Octavius, Ewing expresses some doubts on the Avengers brand being implemented here, but does so in an entertaining, affable manner. "Mighty Avengers" #4 is thin on substantial action, but Ewing and Land use these quieter pages to establish a solid foundation for issues to come. Ewing's more light-hearted approach to threatening menaces is a fine blend for an Avengers book, and makes this title worth checking out for a little while longer at least. Read Full Review

With Al Ewing at the helm, I can see Mighty Avengers being a book I enjoy for a long time yet. His grasp of the characters here is excellent, allowing them to do a lot of work in a short space of time, and managing to make an issue that is almost devoid of fighting seem exciting and a page-turner. Despite the constant drawbacks of Greg Pornfa-I mean, Land, Mighty Avengers is a book that deserves a look, and is beginning to carve its post-Infinity niche in the Marvel Universe. Read Full Review

I was already expecting an excellent script by Al Ewing, but I definitely wasn't expecting to enjoy Greg Land's art so much. The cast grows, the plot thickens, but the humour never leaves sight in this expertly put together title.
