Avengers #1 starts the new era with vigor, and Mackay brings a refreshing and more streamlined focus. The cast is classic and full of powerhouses in every form of the word. Read Full Review

Avengers #1 provides a bold and provocative new beginning for some old friends. The action starts early and doesn't let up, but the story is never sacrificed for its sake. Read Full Review

This is the best Avengers title I've read in recent memory. If this first issue is only a taste of what is to come, I think it a safe prediction that this will go down as one of the greatest runs in Avengers history. Whether you're a fan of the movies who has yet to get into the comics, or a fan of Captain Marvel, Iron Man, Black Panther, The Vision, Scarlet Witch, Captain America and Thor, you will want to check this out.

All told, Avengers #1 gets the team together, has them fight a world-ending villain, and gives readers a resolution. Add in the cliffhanger that ties into the last Timeless issue, and we have a great introduction to a new era of Avengers. It's no small achievement. Read Full Review

Its a fantastic first issue that establishes a good team and sets out a mission statement for what the Avengers mean as a whole and as individuals. This run is partly spinning out of the events of Timeless (2022) #1, how that one shot will affect this story isn't entirely clear yet but part of me does worry itll become necessary reading to understand the following issues. With that being said Its still a great first issue which I can highly recommend. Read Full Review

Avengers #1 addresses the team's lack of direction in recent years and sets them on a more focused path while still providing satisfactory action, adventure and wit. Read Full Review

Our Avengers lineup includes Sam Wilson, Thor, Tony Stark, Black Panther, the Vision, and the Scarlet Witch. with Carol providing some insight, both through narration and dialogue, about her reasons for wanting each for the team (and choosing them over other contenders). It's an interesting team. Now assembled, let's see just how this new team functions. Read Full Review

It's always fun when the creators explain the reasoning of their team's membership, and Terminus has never looked better. Read Full Review

Jed MacKay and C.F. Villa provide The Avengers with a much needed reset with the start of the new start to the relaunched series. Time was well spent to get lapsed and new readers caught up to speed with each member of this new Avengers roster. Those catch-up scenes never overstay their welcome as the focus for The Avengers #1 is showcasing the team as Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Add in the tease of a bigger storyline centered around Kang The Conquerer, The Avengers #1 is a strong start for the new creative team. Read Full Review

A talented creative team plays it safe, starting off their new series on a relatively quiet note. Read Full Review

Avengers #1 is entertaining, but its not breaking the formula. MacKay, Villa, Blee, and Petit do a wonderful job together. This book needs to overcome a lot of bad will from the previous run, and this issue succeeds in getting readers hooked. Read Full Review

At the very least, Avengers #1 is a fun read, with plenty of character interactions and zippy pacing that lets it go down smooth and easily. Focusing the action through a singular character (Carol, in this instance) always helps an ensemble book feel less frantic and aimless, and with her solo title on the way out without an immediate replacement lined up, Avengers is as good a place as any to give her the spotlight. There are also some interesting dynamics on this particular team that could bear fruit later, e.g. Carol and Tony (remember Civil War II?), Vision and Wanda (exes, uh oh!), Sam and TChalla (they beefin!). MacKay tends to have a light touch in his comics, so I expect a similar tone for a lot of it. But this issue is also a good showcase for artist C.F. Villa (recently of X-Men and MacKays Black Cat), who delivers rather solid superhero art that always looks good on the page with Federico Blees colors. Read Full Review

This is what The Avengers is all about.

New creative team, new team at field and new direction. At first sight it was only simple introduction of new team, but i feeled something special. Every member got some problem and be a part of Avengers is maybe some kind of solution. Really recommend for new readers. Cliffhanger is directly connected with issue Timeless 2022.

To be an avenger means something again.

Re-read Timeless (2022) before this issue, and I’m completely hooked on this story. Jed Mackay continues to be one of the best writers at Marvel currently, and nothing changes with his Avengers run. To the art, action, and story setup, I loved every minute and can’t wait for more.

Jed MacKay continues to be one of the best current writers today with this great team-building issue. I was expecting either Tony or Sam to be the leader of the team, but I'm very happy it's Carol. Plus, she's written very well here which makes it all the better. Referencing something that was mentioned in another user's review of this issue, I enjoyed seeing Carol check in with every member of the new team and including acknowledgement of their current situations. Plus, I totally forgot about last year's Timeless issue, so it was super cool to see Kang on the final page. I've been enjoying MacKay's Moon Knight and Doctor Strange runs so far, so I'm hoping this maintains the same kind of quality. So far, it's lived up to the hype.

Very good intro to the team— just what a #1 book should be. MacKay mostly hits the voices of the characters, excelling at writing team leader, Carol Danvers. Art is good but I wish it was a little clearer and more colorful at times.

This was amazing. Everything in this issue is really good, not perfect, but really really good. The characters, the fight scenes, the characterization... Everything! Cant wait to see where this goes.

I kind of want to give this a 10 just because it's nice to enjoy reading Avengers again. Great first issue! The art was good, the set up was good and the team is pretty good. I really like having Wanda and Vision back in Avengers, it's been way too long since they've been on the team.

I do hope they squeeze in some lesser used Avengers into the team eventually. I like to see Simon Williams back, or even Black Knight. Team books like this are great for balancing the popular regulars like Thor and Iron Man, with some lesser known great characters.

This was a fantastic start. MacKay nails the characters here, especially Carol, which is clearly a challenge for a lot of writers. After the mind-numbingly huge Avengers Assemble event, I'm glad this issue takes its time introducing all the characters and giving them their moments. It's so refreshing. On top of that, as someone who reads a lot of Marvel comics, it's nice to see the current status quos of these characters reflected in this book. So often, Aaron's run would ignore what was happening elsewhere in the universe. It's nice to read a top shelf book that embraces the universe it's representing. MacKay is fast becoming one of the best writers Marvel has, and this issue shows he's not even close to slipping.

It's Jed MacKay, I knew he wouldn't disappoint.

But this was a really strong start. I quit Aaron's Avengers after it started to become too non-sensical, so this was a great starting point.

New times for the Avengers and a new time for Carol.

The new volume of the avengers lives with a new team, which despite being well-known faces, are characters from different areas. We have a millionaire, ex-king, god, witch, android, soldier and the most powerful woman in the world to command them.

This edition presents itself as an introduction, you see this team being recruited and already see it in action, where we can see that Carol was successful in recruiting this team as it fills all the gaps that a superhero team needs.
The villain has no purpose or depth in this edition, especially because he only serves as an introduction to the team. However, the consequences of their battle lead to what could be the initial plot of this volume, as we have one of the biggest villains of this team and a character that is on the rise throughout the cinematic universe.
The art was suited to expressing the heroes' struggle and danger. In addition to providing the appropriate characteristics in both the illustration and text. This text is very well written to help us get to know and delve deeper into the purposes of the heroes within this team. more

Finally the Avengers have been freed from clutches of Jason Aaron! Great first issue and so good to be able to read the Avengers again. Jed MacKay has a solid track record and so far seems to be the perfect fit for the book. Really looking forward to seeing where this story goes and what else he's got in store.

This is primarily about the gathering of the new team. The battle with Terminus is secondary & provides a fix for those craving action.

It's head and shoulders better than...no, I'm not that person what's done is done...this is decent. Not Thomas, not Busiek, not Stern but a solid start.

There was a lot about this issue that I liked. I liked the pacing. The action scenes tied together with the recruitment scenes was great. By doing this, we didn't get just a recruitment issue. Carol actually acted like a thinking, caring leader, as opposed to what were getting in the feminist movement that Kelly Thompson's run transformed into. I understand why Cap America can't be on the team - it's like having Storm and Cyclops on the same team - they would step on each other's toes for leadership. (Cap would end up coming out on top and diminishing Carol.) However, his presence is missed on an Avenger title - Carol will never replace Cap. I also am not a fan of Falcon Cap (that movie is going to tank) I prefer him as Falcon. Steve is back, there's no reason for two Cap Americas. more

this was a very solid issue. I liked how this is going, and for once I like Carol Danvers. I think anyone would enjoy this. Hopefully this is a better run than Jason Aaron

We have seen this type of intro 100 times. Art is clean and very fitting. I like what we started here.

It's fine. I still can't stand Wanda tho, and I don't get why she's still around as a character.

Not much meat here, mostly meeting the team and understanding their dynamics

Not much action in this issue. Basically, it's about Captain Marvel putting together a new Avenger team. However, I do trust McKay to bring some fresh ideas in upcoming issues.

Wow. Ok, I guess everyone loved this and I'm gonna be the party pooper here. First things first, it's not bad. I think future issues will be amazing and I do enjoy Jed MacKay books, but this just felt a bit forced. The beginning of the book was really good where Carol is staring at the stars and then it just went downhill fast for me. It felt like the majority of the book wasn't just her building her team but the team members kissing each others asses proving they belong on said team. Tony kisses Carol's ass, Carol kisses Tony's, then T'challa's, then Sam's. She mentions BP is the most dangerous man alive....twice. He's great and all but the most dangerous man alive??? Sam has to make sure to reiterate he's Captain America. We get it Jed, he's not just some knock off. That's what you were trying to convey right? And the reasoning for not taking Steve was kinda lame. Maybe if she was afraid everyone would look to him as leader even if it was unconsciously and they couldn't function as a team that way, I would have bought it. Also the first adventure is so deadly we need to see Carol willing to sacrifice herself to save everyone and it felt like it was used to show how amazing she is. She is amazing and deserves to be leader ( she's Captain Freaking Marvel for God's sake!) but I didn't think we needed it rammed down our throats like this. It set up for the future story though so I can let that one go. Vision and Scarlet Witch were my favorites here because I thought they were written with more finesse and Black Panther was written with passion and regality which fit the character well. Panther's encounter with engineers was written very well. The art is incredible and Terminus looked like a million bucks. Continuity was taken into account with this book as well which I really appreciated. Like I said, future issues will be better and this one wasn't necessarily bad, I just didn't dig it as much as others on here. "So, what's taken the cherry out of your pie?". Yeesh. more
