AVENGERS LEGACY ISSUE #800! EARTH'S MIGHTIEST HEROES mark a critical MILESTONE with eight hundred issues! Everything has been building toward this: MYRDDIN's ENDGAME! KANG stands revealed at the precipice of a NEW UNIVERSE! PLUS: This issue will feature a special 14-page backup story written by Bendis and drawn by superstar artist Mark Bagley, reuniting the powerhouse pair known for their work together on Ultimate Spider-Man and Avengers Assemble.
What a great way to celebrate 800 issues of Avengers. MacKay and Bendis both craft stories worth reading with each author's partners on the visual side bringing life to their words. That said, the story may not be for everyone. MacKay's story in issue #34 feels like a reminiscence on his time as Avengers writer, and for readers hoping for huge action sequences to drive the story forward, they may not be satisfied with this issue. I, however, loved it. Read Full Review

Plot
The Twilight Court assists the Avengers and helps them confront their creator, Myrddin/Kang.
This sequence, where they explain to Kang all their victories throughout these 33 issues, is a dizzying and brilliant summary, making it clear that the Avengers are heroes and that their actions are based on altruism.
Since the "Missing Moment" is an artifact created by Reed Richards in Secret Wars, it can only be used and activated by a hero, and Captain Marvel takes it in her hand. This sets in motion a countdown that will affect the fabric of reality. Will Kang finally win?
With only a few issues left in this saga, this installment is magnificent and a gift for readers who have followed it since the firs more
Damn, okay, Bendis can still write the Avengers.
