After Loeb’s Ultimates 3 and his Ultimatum storyline, I honestly believed he had nearly come close to entirely destroying everything…

April 13, 2011 11:38 am I still think Fantastic Four would be a better fit for Zowie, but this could be cool too.
March 28, 2011 3:50 pm This list needed a little more Chris Pine.  I still think Pine would make an awesome Daredevil for the reboot.
March 25, 2011 1:09 am Some might think I'm crazy, but since the character's introduction in Chew, I always thought John Rhys-Davies would make an amazing Savoy.
December 8, 2010 2:03 pm I'm kinda shocked at everyone's indifference or dislike to this book, since it's easily my top Avengers book right now.  People seem to knock Bendis' quick and witty banter but I feel it really suits this book and has been building a fun team dynamic throughout.

Immonen is a personal favorite of mine and his art has been absolutely great on this series so far.

This issue was a fun read and nice little in-between for some arcs.

Love this title.
December 2, 2010 9:34 pm Lemire packed so many brilliant artistic moments in just this single issue that it blows my mind.  From the framing of the attacks while Jepperd does his talk on remembering faces, to the clue breakdown scene in Singh's lab, and of course down to those final few pages of the fist fight.

All expert storytelling simply through visual imagery that's only aided by Lemire's great writing.

Easily one of my favorite books out right now.  Love Lemire.

 The second half of this comic is actually an old reprint of the first Ultimate Spidey Super Special #1.  I think it's kinda weird they tossed it in here, but I won't complain.

Pretty much what TNC said.

This book is consistantly amazing, even though I don't tend to recall what may have happened in the last issues from time to time.

But this issue was just excellent on all fronts.  The writing was on point and you get introduced to Tony's quirky family in such a fun way along with the stunning art, filling each and every panel to the brim with little jokes and details.

The beginning panels with Savoy were simply amazing too.

Great series, great fun, 5/5.

I'm surprised at everyone's disdain for the book and this issue.

This is easily my most favorite team book out right now and I'm reading most of them.

I also thought this issue was excellent and that the death itself was handled very well.  I'm on the love train for this book and can't wait to see where it heads from here.

Not silly in the least.  My interest in the book had waned, but ever since Capullo jumped on I've been really enjoying the series.

I'd much rather Capullo remained as the artist for the remainder of the series.  I think the style compliments the book.

Agreed, this is easily shaping up to be my favorite arc of the series thus far.

Frazier's art gives the whole story a bunch of wonderful tones and the story has been flowing at a wonderful pace.

Joker & Damian really do steal the show.  The fact that Damian is hardly the ideal Boy Wonder, even straying a lot further than some of the "disturbed childhoods" some of the kids have had is a great contrast for Joker, who is in on everything.

So many characters are playing together and the stakes are high and I'm loving each and every moment of it.

So glad I stuck with this book and I'm definitely sticking around to see where it heads from here.
