    There's no deep plot at work here - just lots of action, some crackling dialogue and a fun story with a great wrap-up to Bendis' long run. Read Full Review

    Overall, this was a fitting send off for the longest consecutive writer of The Avengers in history. It may not go down in history as one of the best Avengers stories ever, it might be one of the most heartfelt ones because of the behind the scenes elements of the whole thing. While I'll miss the things he's done with this team, I'm very much looking forward to the next chapter of team, which is said to be one of the biggest ones yet. Also, I'm already enjoying Bendis' work over on 'All-New X-Men', which people should check out as well. Finally, this won't be the last Avengers tale for the acclaimed writer because there's still the matter of Age of Ultron, a story that has been talked about for years and years at this point. So, for those of you that aren't ready for Brian Michael Bendis to give up his keys to the Avengers Mansion just yet, be patient because there's an encore up his sleeve that will affect the whole Marvel Universe.

    Blue Raven Comics - Eric Scroggs Nov 25, 2012

    The real treat of this issue, though, was the dialogue. As mentioned earlier, the welcome home party for Janet was filled with humor and a lot of relatable, human moments that really showed this team as a family, more than anything" even if it is sometimes a dysfunctional one. It's here where the writing truly shines, as it has always been with Bendis. As I've mentioned in my previous reviews, I'm going to miss him on this title, as well as its sister book, New Avengers. I look forward to seeing what he can do with the X-Men. Farewell, Mr. Bendis. It's been fun. Read Full Review

    As a result, it's tough not to feel as though Bendis' tenure on the franchise reached its natural conclusion some time ago, and that "Avengers" is representative of a weak attempt to carry on against better judgement. The strong showing of "All New X-Men" #1 certainly shows that he's got better in him. Read Full Review

    I really wish this was better than it was, but as it stands, paying $4.99 for this made feel as though Marvel had straight up robbed me. Read Full Review
