Avengers #9 is a superb action issue. It’s a book designed to weave characters and combat from beginning to end. Read Full Review
With great writing, impeccable art, and a fantastic cliffhanger, The Avengers #9 is a near perfect comic book. I am excited to see where the story goes and I can't wait to see where MacKay and the rest of the team take this group of Earth's Mightiest Heroes next. Read Full Review
Avengers #9 feels like a blast from the past with its lengthy action and witty, light-hearted banter, cementing the Twilight Court as worthy foes for the titular heroes. Read Full Review
Mortarino delivers some great visual thrills in the issue. The art is lively and entertaining and filled with great details. Read Full Review
It's all too predictable, which is a shame for an entire issue that takes place over the span of a single fight. Read Full Review
Avengers #9 has Earth's Mightiest Heroes face the newest group of opponents, the Twilight Court. The comic is more of a series of matchups between them and the Avengers, and it seems more focused on showing off the Twilight Court. Granted, it doesn't take long before the Avenger turn things around and they win the fight sooner than expected, though how it's resolved makes sense in the context of these new characters. However, there's still the mater of this “Myrrdin” figure, and their plan for Kang will hopefully make things more interesting in the next issue. Read Full Review
Plot
Twilight Court is made up of King Arthur, Lancelot, Galehaut, Bercilak, Parsifal and the witch Mordred whose powers are similar to those of the Avengers Vision, Wanda, Thor, Iron Man, Captain Marvel, Captain America and Black Panther, being a battle where Both sides are tied until Iron Man and Black Panther agree that they must change opponents so that their abilities are useful and they manage to defeat Twilight Court.
But no one noticed that Mryddin reached the bed where Kang is resting in a coma...
Exciting chapter full of adrenaline and action.
Art
It is detailed and maintains the tone that the illustrated C.F Villa had been bringing but adds more shadows and different textures.

Liked the twist of shaking things up
Really loved the mix and matching here.
Not my favorite issue of the series, but still a really good one. MacKay did a good job of establishing each Avenger and each member of The Twilight Court when it comes to their abilities and skill-sets. I really enjoyed him building upon this set-up by having each Avenger, essentially, switch places in order to win. I also enjoyed the art from Mortarino here. I don't remember seeing art from them previously.
If you want an honest take on this, the issue was fine. It was a classic take on musical chairs with the avengers done time and time again. Was this done well? Yes, but it was really unique by any means. Characters were at least in character but nothing about this really wow'ed me.
Art was pleasing. Overall a fine issue but I dont get the reviews so far. Not sure what makes this a 10/10. Its a decent issue but not mind-blowing or epic in any way. The fights are not more intense than the previous arc (which I thought was done better). I am still trying to find the purpose of this arc besides the twilight court wants Kang. I just wish this feels like the antagonists had more weight to them rather than how they feel like they are j more
Art: 3/5
Story: 3/5
Total: 6/10
Not my cup of tea.
This book has reached a new low of stupidity, worst Avengers run I've ever read
