The underlying plot was a good idea in this series I really
liked very much. The Phoenix is coming again. It has burnt a fiery path of
destruction on its way to Earth. The Avengers and X-Men know where it's heading
or rather who it's heading to, Hope Summers. Cyclops believes the Phoenix
through Hope will bring back mutant kind from the brink of extinction, but the
Avengers fear for the Earth. Cyclops along with the X-Men is adamant that Hope
stays with them even if it means war against the Avengers.
I really like the way the Phoenix get tied up with 5 people
instead of just the one to make it more interesting. I like how you have Iron
Man vs Magneto, Gambit vs Captain America and Black Panther vs Storm very
interesting match ups that I think any comic book fan would want to see. The great
one liners by spider-man and his banter back and forth with Wolverine adds some
humor.
Written by Brian Michael Bendis (Author), Ed Brubaker
(Author), Matt Fraction (Author), Jason Aaron (Author), Jonathan Hickman
(Author) I think they did a great collaborative job on this almost 600 page
series.
There was only one small let down towards the middle of the story
nothing bad just seemed like it was there to kill time the story slows a bit
then picks backup again. Other than that I was wholly invested. I personally
sided with the X-Men. They seemed to be guilty before anything even happened
which seemed really odd considering what Cap and the other avengers had been
through with the Hulk. All in all though so much fun, a must read!
I would give this a 5 out 5 stars very well written time
line was excellent and placement of matchups and character twists were great.
