THE MISSING MOMENT! The AVENGERS have cracked the code…but what does REED RICHARDS have to do with it? The true nature of MYRDDIN is REVEALED!
Jed MacKay is reeling in some aspects of Secret Wars (2015) to make this new story whole. Also, theres the thread he started in Timeless #1 (2022) with the concept of the missing moment. Finally, everything is coming together for the Avengers to stop Myrddin and save the world. Read Full Review
Karami creates some interesting art throughout the issue. There are some great visual moments, but some of the physical movements of the characters looked odd. Read Full Review
Avengers #29 pays off two years' worth of buildup, and forges a connection to a major Marvel storyline in the process. Now that the Missing Moment has been revealed, the quest is on and hopefully MacKay can keep up the major momentum he's launched in this issue. Read Full Review
Avengers #29 returns its focus to its longest-running plotline, offering major revelations concerning Myrddin and his goals, while bringing the fan-favorite Mr. Fantastic into the mix. Read Full Review
Avengers #29 answers the questions of what the Grail really is and how it came to be. And what Reed Richards' connection to it is. Mileage will vary on the reception to the answers. Sadly, the comic really is just exposition dump, and aside from a warmhearted interaction and callback between Reed and TChalla, thats about it in the emotion and character departments. Also, Myrddin wraps things up with his Twilight Court, but since we hardly knew them their departure from the plot feels uneventful. Read Full Review
Plot
This comic defines the mysterious MISSING MOMENT, the key to understanding these 28 issues of this powerful saga that only improves with each installment. It's a must-read and a perfect starting point for what's to come, because it explains everything magnificently.
Iron Man, Captain Marvel, Scarlet Witch, Vision, Captain America, and Black Panther meet with Reed Richards to explain the journey they've been on since the day Kang asked them to help him obtain the mysterious lost second, whose contents no time traveler knows.
On the other hand, they show the mysterious sorcerer Myrddin, who assembles his team of powerful beings, which he created based on King Arthur's Round Table, but are actually copies of the more
This issue is pretty much a non-stop WTF moment for me, since I haven’t read this series from the beginning and not a lot of explanation is given. Anyway, I have read worse from Jed McKay. His writing is usually bad to average, but he’s doing a decent job here.
I do like the art. There are some beautiful close-ups, although Karami’s detailed style takes away some of the dynamism and spontaneity needed for a superhero comic.
All in all, this is still a bad era for the Avengers, but it’s probably one of the better issues, due to the better than average art.
The team (finally) decide to take their problem to someone smarter than them (Reed Richards) after knowing about it for a year (Marvel time).
Meanwhile Mr. Who Is He Under The Mask assembles his court of heroes that match up with each Avenger.
Meanwhile, meeting up with Reed, they begin to describe pieces of their story.
Meanwhile, Mr. Who Is He Under The Mask assembles his court of heroes that match up with each Avenger (déjà vu anyone?).
Meanwhile, the Avengers politely take turns telling Reed that the universe is going to be destroyed.
Meanwhile, Mr. Who Is He Under The Mask tells his court (who if you didn’t know match up to each Avenger) that they’ve died a bunch of times (but got better).
