Orchis' counterstrike puts the Avengers on the back foot as the true extent of the Stark Sentinel program is revealed. Can Earth's Mightiest Heroes stand against impossible odds? Or will they fall against the metal onslaught?
Rated T+
Avengers Issue #13 is a frantic finale to the tie-in. The Avengers involvement in Fall of X has been non-stop action, fighting Orchis with formidable firepower. The comic is an intense read that revels in classic superhero spectacle. Read Full Review
Mortarino delivers beautifully detailed art that perfectly captures the dramatic beauty of the story and the suspense of the action throughout it. Read Full Review
As far as event tie-in books goes, this is top notch. If a reader has not been keeping up with the ‘Fall of X' storyline, this issue and the last issue were enough to bring them up to speed so they could enjoy the ride. Read Full Review
Avengers #13 brings the team and their allies together for a tense and visually stimulating battle in Earth's upper atmosphere, with some unexpected twists along the way. Read Full Review
I'm happy to see how 3-D Man served a similar role for the Avengers as Firestar did for the X-Men in their fight against Orchis. I wasn't sure when and how 3-D Man turned to the dark side, but I was giddy during the big revelation of what he and Black Panther planned in secret. Very well done. Read Full Review
When you shake it all down, Avengers #13 is affected a bit too much by external factors, leaving us with an anticlimax two-thirds of the way through the issue, an epilogue that has to play it coy, and a next-issue blurb promising an all-new, albeit possibly temporary lineup. Read Full Review
Plot
The battle vs Orchis reached The Impossible City, The 3-D Man manages to decipher the invisibility mechanism and the Stark Sentinels attack is immense.
The battle is epic and all the Avengers return to The Impossible City to counter the attack and manage to save the day by making The 3-D Man reflect on his actions.
But this peace only lasted a few days...because suddenly the planet's sky goes dark, seen from space...welcoming the summer event Blood Hunt, where the Vampires snatch everything...Who will they bite first? .
Art
It's textured and organic, with great large-scale action sequences.
Summary
The Avengers manage to appease Orchis, thus helping the X-men succeed, but the p more
Another super solid issue that ties in with the current X-Men situation. With this issue, I feel very similarly to how I felt with the previous one. This was a nice, entertaining resolution of sorts to this smaller story. I'm really looking forward to seeing what MacKay does with Blood Hunt.
Art: 3.5/5
Story: 3/5
Total: 6.5/10
Toiler paper quality all the way
Not related to how awful it is to read a book as shallow and boring as this one, but I can't really see Black Panther, King of Wakanda saying "Damn"
