CIVIL WAR: VAMPIRE EDITION!
Dracula forges unholy alliances from his prison cell. Ghost Rider goes berserk. The Shadow Colonel and his new Legion of the Unliving raise bloody hell all over the globe. It's a good thing the Avengers just added a startling new member to the team.
Rated T+
AVENGERS #15 is the reason you should be reading this series. Jason Aaron pulls out some of his best storytelling yet, and David Marquez and Erick Arciniega deliver pitch-perfect pages, front to back. This is likely the best issue of Aaron's AVENGERS yet. Read Full Review
Man, I do not know if I can explain in words how much fun I am having reading this Vampire Civil War story arc. From the Shadow of the Unliving characters, to Blade wielding nunchucks and spouting goofy vampire puns, to everyone being concerned about Dracula, this is just too much fun! The Avengers #15 was just a pure pleasure of a comic book to read. Aaron continues to toe perfectly that line of keeping the story serious yet being a little silly at the same time. I can't say enough good things about the art"truly just tremendous work form Marquez and Arciniega once again! Read Full Review
The art by David Marquez is great. There are some beautifully detailed panels throughout and the action is both visceral and amazing to look at. Read Full Review
As I said last issue,this is the book I've wanted for months and I love it. Read Full Review
This issue was connective tissue for the arc, formally introducing the Legion of the Undead when Shadow Colonel gives a brainwashed Ghost Rider an orientation. I'll give props to the creativity of the Colonel having a "Boy-Thing" he grew from a piece of the Man-Thing in order to have an endless supply of wooden stakes. The only important mystery left is Dracula's plan after voluntarily surrendering himself into Russian custody. That part of the book was pretty dialogue-heavy and personally, I'm tired of anything regarding Iron Man's family. If you really want to impress me, regale me with stories of Sarge and his healthy, supportive Hellhound parents. Read Full Review
I do have a con that doesn't involve story or art that I will address here. Marvel, please choose where you place your ads better. Put them in between scenes, not in the middle of them. A couple of times I had to flip back to understand what was happening because I had lost context and continuity due to the interruption of 3 pages of ads. That aside this is a book I can recommend. The pros far outweigh any cons, this is an exciting story and I can't wait to see where it goes from here. 4 out of 5! Read Full Review
While I am all in on this Vampire Civil War, I need more…well, Vampire Civil War! This issue sets up some big things, but a lot of the characters have nothing to do and besides a great bit with Tony Stark and Dracula, I was actually a little bit bored by the end. The art is great throughout, but I am hoping the next issue gives me more of what I want. Read Full Review
Nothing especially fantastic going on, but any comic that puts Robbie Reyes at the forefront is going to be exciting. Read Full Review
This is tons of fun!
The best issue of the series so far. Aaron nails the arrogance necessary in Marvel's Dracula, introduces cool new villains and builds the team dynamic all in one issue. This arc has been excellent so far and if it keeps it up it could be an all timer Avenger story.
Really great issue that has wonderful character moments for Ghost Rider and Iron Man. Dracula is really cool and the ongoing politics between the various super teams continues to keep me invested.
Poor Robbie.
I think this is really fun and cool storyline. Im liking Blades integration, although he wasn't too prevalent in this issue. Dracula's conversation with Tony with was really cool and I hope it actually has some consequences on him. Overall a good issue
Not the worst issue but not the best either by Aaron and company. Cool storyline but for a vampire storyline it just feels a bit dry. There was a great scene between Tony and Dracula and I love how Aaron intertwines the Winter Guard and Vampire stories. I like Marquez’s art but this issue had me bored half the time. Pretty generic storyline so far
I am madly in love with the idea that Thor can't be arsed to learn his way around Avengers Mountain. In contrast, you just KNOW Cap studied the layout for hours. I bet he made flashcards.
This issue was pretty solid but, there is just always something I feel is missing in each issue. Not sure but I just feel like there is more potential here.
