Javier Garron delivers some impressive and beautifully detailed art throughout this issue. There are so many great visual moments to see in each page and even the starkness of the void has some great imagery. Read Full Review

If at the end of the first chapter you were still on the fence? I would say that Avengers #41 does much more to give you a reason to invest in this story. Read Full Review

This issue is all about the fighting, but the definition of fighting has many subtle shades, and the combatants are truly entertaining matches.But they better not have killed Howard The Duck. Read Full Review

Avengers, Phoenixes, White Rooms, Man-Things, and even throw in a Howard the Duck for good measure. Avengers #41 is a comic that practically demands that you just shut down your brain and absorb Jason Aaron and Javier Garrn's artwork on a completely 13-year-old level, invoking the days when you just didn't want to think too deeply about comics and just enjoy them on a big old dumb and mindless level. People punching people, what more can we really ask of an Avengers comic? And if that's what we demand of our super-heroes, Aaron and Garrn give us exactly what we want. Read Full Review

If the arc can ride this momentum and find an ending as creative as its character lineup, this will be one of the more entertaining Phoenix stories in recent memory. Read Full Review

Would I buy next issue? Genuinely on the fence. With so many books looking to command both my money and attention, this just doesn't quite reach that tipping point for me. That being said, not a bad book, and one that should have a following in the younger readership. Read Full Review

Avengers #41 is a single-issue microcosm of Aaron's run with the team: a solid outing, but there could be more. Read Full Review

So, we can all agree that the only purpose of this story is to give fans a bunch of costume designs for the Phoenix version of characters? Because that is the only engaging thing in this story for me so far. Read Full Review

RIP duck

Honestly, the art is the problem for me with this issue. The rest is pretty fun.

Okay, nevermind that "ooh, is Echo going to survive?" nonsense. You tell me RIGHT NOW that Howard the Duck is OK, or ...

There are parts I like but parts that don't really work for me unfortunately. I hope it picks up and gets a bit better. On a side note I was glad to see howard the duck go now if they could get rid of all the squadron supreme members that would be great I absolutely loathe those characters personally but I know that isn't going to happen

I gave up on emotionally attaching myself to this book a while ago now and I just enjoy the fireworks and new costumes because that's all there is left below all that prolonged narration by Aaron. It's not as deep as it thinks it is. Garron is fantastic as always.

RIP to Quentin Quire tbh.

The humor here is corny to say the least. I’m afraid this not really going anywhere, just a jokey, smashy romp. If that sounds fun, you might dig it.

Ehh. It had some pretty good art and was readable and some of the black panthers story was cool but overall a little corny to me. Im not sure why this series is so underwhelming most of the time but it is.

Provavelmente é genial demais para mentes pequenas.

This is probably the worst writing by Aaron I've read. It's getting infuriating.

Since the fiery cosmic force known as the Phoenix has arrived on Earth, the Avengers were attacked by Atlanteon warriors lead by their leader Namor. He desires the power of the Phoenix force for himself. Now members of the Avengers, Supreme Squadron, Namor and others continue the battle to decide the new Phoenix host. This tournament is in full force and is directed by Phoenix itself.

In this tournament, all participants will be transformed as they all will experience the power of the Phoenix within them. Honestly, the only thing solid about this Avenger run has been the amazing artwork. It’s definitely the only bright spot. While I do enjoy the cool costume designs of each character, it’s hard to get behind a type of story that has been done many times before. This run has been boring. The Avengers need to be associated with epic stories and that’s something we haven’t had in years.

I want to be clear that this review as every other Comic Book Club Review is purely just our opinion and is not meant to insult any one or the creative team whatsoever. We always appreciate the hard work and dedication that the creators do and we have nothing but respect for them. Thank you for reading.
