Avengers #12

neilfrier's Avengers #12 - Who Will Wield the Gauntlet? review

a bit of a dip

I may not be getting it but i found this end to the story a bit of a let down.

 To me it seemed to sell the rest of this great story arc short and appeared forced and just a bit to short. Perhaps i may be being a bit unfare but when you have one of the most powerful weapons in the marvel universe being held by a total fruit like Hood  i sort of wanted a more explosive end to another wise good Avenger story. 

 

 My other slight complaint at the moment is that in the Avengers we are not getting enough down time stories so we can learn about the characters and see what they thnk of each other.

I short i remain an Avenger fan and i also still love the pace JRJR puts into the story with his art but lets give the stories time to play out and give the space for characters to bloom.

There´re good things to be learned from this arc story and the most important one is that the Infinity Gems deserve a new mini series of their own, not especifically about Marvel heroes, but something from the past, it would be so interesting seeing a story about a war of older beings trying ot control the 6 Gems. Even if it´s not a mini material, this was a good arc story, proving that the Infinity Gems and the Illuminati are great concepts. The conclusion here didn´t disapointed me, it happene...
