Comical Opinions - Gabriel Hernandez
Aug 19, 2026Avengers: Armageddon #3 sends David Colton out to follow in Superman’s footsteps… literally. Chip Zdarsky’s dialogue-heavy script attempts an interesting debate, and the art is solid enough, but the political argument at its core is lopsided, and this story, billed as the on-ramp for Marvel’s next era, feels rudderless.

Comic Book Revolution - Kevin Lainez
Aug 23, 2026There is an overall feeling that a lot of what the story had going for was handled in the first two issues. Maybe the final two issues will prove this wrong. That is certainly what I hope at this point. Read Full Review

Plot
General Ross awakens and is approached by Maxim Milyukov, the current leader of Winter Guard (a Russian government-sponsored team of individuals with superpowers), who offers him the chance to increase his power and destroy the United States as revenge for Ross's betrayal.
David Colton has forcibly removed all the world's nuclear ballistic missiles and launched them into the sun—an aggressive and unilateral act of global disarmament. The United Nations is on high alert, and thousands of people are protesting in the streets against the existence of beings with such immense power who do as they please. David Colton's powers are of an immense scale, the full extent of which is unknown.

This issue reads so much better if you read #1-3 in one sitting. The fast pace gets broken up to much if you wait a while between issues. It also helps if you catch up on Zdarsky’s Cap run to learn about Coulton, a major player in this series. The artwork and writing are quite enjoyable.
