Iron Man is missing
"Kang War VI" concludes!
• The rules of time are fluid - and when reality re-forms around the Avengers, not everything (or everyone) will necessarily be in the same place it was left!
Rated T+
A fine conclusion that is filled with surprises, fun time travel action, and an excellent end. Read Full Review
As the end of an arc, I can't really recommend TheAvengers#6 as a jumping on point from a story perspective as you are likely to be fairly lost, but it is a strong and very enjoyable conclusion to this first arc and I've really enjoyed it. I'll be carrying on with it and you should check out the next story. I can however recommend it purely based on del Mundo's fantastic art, which is worth picking up the book for alone. Check out TheAvengers at your LCS or digitally now! Read Full Review
Avengers #6 brings "The Kang War" to a satisfying, epic conclusion. Once again, both writer Mark Waid and artist Mike del Mundo anchor enormous action with small character moments. Read Full Review
That said the last two issues involved lots of talking or periods of time at the end of time where there was nothing happening in the background. Which draws your eye to the character, and in his style the characters are wonky and misshapen making the comic give you the impression it was rushed or wasn't properly cared for. I am still one very interesting and happy fan though. Read Full Review
This first arc concludes in an entertaining issue. I seldom knew quite exactly what was going on in this arc, but it has been fun to read regardless. It was cool to see the different iterations of the Avengers here, and cool to see Kang being acknowledged as one of Marvel's greatest and most powerful villains. Mike Del Mundo does a great job here, as does Alex Ross on a fantastic cover.
This series has definitely improved a lot and though it is definitely far from perfect it is a good read and the art has improved
Cool hammer scene. Also Cap: Leeeeroy Jenkins!
I said it once I'll say it again. Del Mundo is a very talented artist but this book isn't his calling at all. It just seems wrong art for the book. And Kang is just someone so full of himself that I just wanted the story line just to end already. Hopefully next villain is someone more interesting.
I found this whole arc a bit confusing. No doubt it will make more sense in trade format. Mike Del Mundo's art is stunning as usual. I still feel like something is missing from this title as the Avengers flagship.
Everything seemed simplistic and easy, even though it should have felt like there was a lot at stake.
Time-travelin' Hank Pym gets the big win and the Kang War wraps up with suspicious simplicity. A roster I love and a spotlight turn for my favorite under-rated Avenger can't fool me into rating this highly. It's way too busy, too rushed, and too confusing to achieve more than basic entertainment. Mike Del Mundo's painterly art again struggles to contain an over-complicated script. Thanks to Mark Waid's plotting, we have to chew through *three* cliffhangers before we can *start* the climax. It's exhausting, and it leans hard on the "it's time travel so who cares if it's confusing" crutch.
SCORE: 6.2
