    Avengers World #16 is everything you could have wanted and so much more when a great wrong has been made right. Nick Spencer and Frank J. Barbiere make a great team and made this story one of the most worthy of telling that is connected to the Axis event. I do have to admit I had my fears with the first part of this story, but that all took a full 180 with Avengers World #16 and that meant creating something memorable. Read Full Review

    I'm impressed with Spencer and Barbiere's ability to balance the gravitas of Doom and Scarlet Witch's complex emotions with the innocence of Valeria and 3-D Man. This creative team magnificently tells a concise, compelling story with permanent repercussions in the Marvel Universe. Welcome back, Cassie Lang. This issue is a beautiful backdrop to your return.

    Avengers World has been a hit or miss title over the last twelve months, but this installment does a lot to make things interesting, while fully taking advantage of the main angle in place. Read Full Review

    Then there's that ending. It's fairly problematic. I get why it exists, to bring back a character who's going to be in the supporting cast for a new series in 2015. But considering this character was killed off by the creative team who had transformed her from a random background face into a major character, it's hard to keep from feeling like this character maybe should have stayed away. The proof will be, of course, in what happens with the character moving forward; for all we know it'll be utterly brilliant. But looking solely at "Avengers World" #16, this feels nonsensical and more than a little out of the blue. Then again, it's hardly the only problem with this issue. This is not a shining moment for a normally more interesting series. Read Full Review
