My favourite part of this story is that the Avengers feel *global* again. That's something that I think has been missing for a long time, maybe even since the pre-Bendis days. For a long time, these titles have oscillated between 'street level' or at most nation-level, and intergalactic or even interdimensional level like in Hickman Those both produced plenty of great stories, but they also mean that this international focus feels new and fresh. You can feel that setup for something much bigger is coming, and Aaron has shown with Thor how well he can pull that off.

This was a pretty solid and fun read. I didn't expect the comic to feel very important and it doesn't, but it is entertaining. The Black Order have never had a lot of depth to them and a careful line is walked here between trying to flesh them out a bit while staying true to their established character types as, well, 2 dimensional villainous mass murderers. It won't rock your world or anything but if you are the type of person who thinks a comic about the Black Order could be fun, I think it delivers.
