HISTORY'S MIGHTIEST HEROES: CONCLUSION!
The Avengers' epic quest through the darkest and weirdest corners of time comes to an end with an issue that focuses on the prehistoric forefather of all things dark and weird in Marvel history: Earth's very first Sorcerer Supreme. Prepare to see all of history through the eyes of Agamotto. RATED T+
Fiorelli delivers some great art in the issue. The visuals are beautiful and craft a great world for the characters. Read Full Review
Avengers #62 offers up plenty of artistic flare, but little story progression with no real resolutions. Read Full Review
The most promising element found in the issue is that it promises some sort of ending is finally in sight for a narrative grown far too large with too little purpose. Read Full Review
I enjoy Aaron’s deep dive into all the different multiversal/historic characters.
I really enjoyed the prehistoric Avengers spotlight issues in the past, and this is similarly good in that regard. It is not, however, a conclusion to this arc. This arc had horrible pacing, nothing much happened, and I wouldn't even say it had a structure. And this conclusion issue just caps it all off in the same regard. I hope Avengers Assemble is better, but I doubt it will be.
It's a cromulent build-up for the climactic finale, but the sheer length and twistiness of the road that's brought us here has me exhausted even before we start. And though there's a basic logic to all the Cave-Venger philosophy and character work here, there's not a lot of depth.
Plus I'm quite infuriated by the "Agamotto's backstory? Who knows LOL" routine.
Still here just because why stop now with less than 10 issues to go after 4 years. Fiorelli as an artist is good and has a lot of potential.
I cannot wait for this Avengers run to be over. Another brutal issue. I only hope that the last arc will be exciting but this issue in particular was so boring that I had to skip sections of it. Nonsense narratives, pointless Mephisto encounter, depressing and cynical dialogue... is Jason Aaron, okay? Does he need an intervention or some kind?
I have stuck through this run, which at this point will be a contender for worst Avengers run ever, because I generally love reading Avengers comics. It will take a particularly poor ending to contend with the 300-340ish era of Avengers, but that's where it's going in my opinion.
It's not like the story is a bad idea though. There's potential in the concept. It's that the dialo more
Make it stop plz
