Oh man, it is not a good day for the New Avengers. Someone has invented a power disrupter and unleashed it in New York City. The heroes have fallen. Some are hurt bad, others near death. Who will rise to the challenge and save the day? A very important DARK REIGN issue. Something big happens. Not going to tell you what it is but it happens on page 17, panel 4. Rated A …$3.99

    Still, New Avengers #56 does continue to live up to its colloquial status as the "proper Avengers title." It incorporates heavy hitters like Loki and the Dark Avengers alongside old-timers like the Wrecking Crew and Madame Masque, and tells an exciting story with those ingredients, all rendered by a fabulous, talented artist.
