First Look: NEW AVENGERS #24 - an Avengers Vs. X-Men Tie-In

The team gathers to discuss the coming problem and decisions are made.

With the coming war between the Avengers and X-Men, several characters will have to make a hard choice. The good and the bad thing about this 'event' is that it will cross over into related titles. What's good about this is they will help to flesh out the story. With so many characters involved, there should be some time to look at the decision making process rather than just have all the characters jump into the fight against one another. The bad thing is if you're trying to avoid this event, it will seep into several books you're most likely reading.

Today, Marvel has shared a first look at NEW AVENGERS #24. Here we can see some of those decisions being made.

@allpro: I thought the same thing too. The art is not as powerful as they have made the story sound. I'm not super interested in the event anyways. They really haven't sold me on it yet.

@allpro: I would disagree, I think the art is really nice and the coloring... Not everyone is as good as Alex Ross.

What no one seems to have noticed in the preview at the bottom is Storm. It's pretty clear that they're discussing the Phoenix's return from the image on the following page, and what does she do? She walks out of the room and flies off. At the same time, Wolverine stays put. Guess that answers part of the 'Which side will they be on?' question, although I think we all knew that Storm would side with the mutants. The question is, will her husband?

Whats the cause of the conflict? The events of Children's Crusade or Scarlet Witch in general? The Avengers never officially standing by the X-Men in mutant rights? Cyclops sends the X-men out to attack because he is a jerk?

@ArtisticNeedham: All that, plus the Phoenix force is headed straight towards Earth and everyone's pretty certain it's heading straight for Hope. Except the X-Men don't attack the Mansion, the Avengers attack Utopia. Yep, Cap's being a massive tool right now.

@PrimeDirective: Oh, thanks. So thats also what the Cable book was about.

Children's Crusade (Scarlet Witch/ M-Day) and Cable's X-Sanction (Hope/Pheonix Force) I guess thats enough to cause a fight between them. I wonder if Avengers who were also X-Men and mutants will side with the X-Men or the Avengers. I haven't been reading X-books so I sort of am out of the loop and don't sympathize with their characters anymore... been a long time since I read them, and so I sort of am rooting for the Avengers (although I don't know their stance yet anyway).

Does Logan still bear a grudge against Hope for the death of Kurt? I wonder how much that may impact his decision.

Nice, I actually like the art. Specifically, I love the coloring/inking. Looks like Storm's time on the Avengers isn't going to be a very long one

Cap and Cyke are fighting who is more handsome but Wolverine tells them to stop because he is the most handsome. ROFL! : )

@ArtisticNeedham:

X-Men want to train/help/condition Hope to be ready to recieve it and not be overtaken by it. They see it as an opportunity to save the mutant race.

Avengers want to stop the Phoenix Force from getting to Hope, but if it does, they plan to take her out.

Storm is siding with the X-Men.

Beast and Wolverine we don't know about yet, but Iceman is currently with Wolverine and Iceman has already been shown to be fighting against the Avengers.

He's fighting Cap apparently.

If he does fight against the mutants, then its Bendis' fault really.

Is there an actual reason Giant-man is so big? I understand in a fight but from the looks of it they're having a discussion!

Last I saw - it showed he did. Made some comment to Cyclops about her being worth it but then nothing more was made of it. Something is niggling the back of my mind that he's reached some kind of resolution, but I can't think of it.

I kinda just imagined what might be said in the bubbles as I looked over the pictures..but then again I probably would have lame commentary period so that doesn't count, lol. Plus the art seems okay...not great but not bad either.
