Rated T+
Spencer and Checchetto close out this exceptionally long (yet great) arc with a strong, thundering issue that will please fans greatly. This creative pairing is very strong and, even though I once thought a book like Avengers World might be superfluous, I find myself happy to be proven wrong. 14 issues in, this is as strong as any book in the Avengers line and I can't wait for more Avengers World.

So it's an action-packed story that goes from completely improbable (the fight with the giant dragon - how could Madripoor possibly survive that?) to speedy (Morgan's fall) to satisfying (AIM). Read Full Review
That image includes the Next Avengers (from that direct-to-video adventure of the same name from some years back, who also appeared in the Heroic Age "Avengers" series), Euroforce, S.P.E.A.R., the Ascendants and, of course, the Avengers. The composition completely fills the last two pages of "Avengers World" #14. Yes, it may seem like a bit of overkill, but after the fourteen-part saga that has carried readers through, it is perhaps the most appropriate way to reward readers and Avengers, showing a distinct conclusion before spinning off into a new storyline. That new storyline will undoubtedly be connected to "AXIS," but at least there is closure before piling on new stories. I'm hoping the next arc doesn't span this long, but the stable of creators, highlighted by Spencer and Checchetto certainly has ample opportunity and range for whatever come next. Read Full Review
Somehow a wrap up that works. I don't really care about what happens with the Next Avengers. But I wouldn't mind seeing the other new teams introduced play a role somewhere. Now I can get back to Hickman Avengers proper though, and that's nice!
I’m excited to see what happens with the Next Avengers but I’m glad this storyline has ended. This series was supposed to be all about character writing because Avengers and New Avengers have way too many characters for their own goods. I actually really liked the AIM storyline but the Morgan Le Fay arc was awful, the Madripoor arc was fun but way too unrealistic and over the top, and the attack on DC arc with Captain America, well I don’t think that counts as an arc at all
