Reviews

[Gavin · Rating 3 out of 5]

1989 just before my first ever avengers book...the team made no sense at all...Reed and Sue from the FF not on the FF? With Cap in his not-Captain America outfit, Thor, and Gilgamesh, one of the worst heroes in Avengers history. Poorly written between a wise eternal and a childish Asgardian...odd.

Marks the birth of a new Avengers lineup.Some old and new faces.
