    I love that weve spent awhile in this timeline, and I actually wouldnt have minded spending even MORE time in it if wed been given the chance. Perhaps we will at some later time, but for now it seems like well be leaving and its a testament to the strength of the storytelling that I cant wait for that either. Read Full Review

    Uncanny Avengers is one of those rare comics that I just can't wait for the next issue, much less the trade. This is one of Marvel's best books at the moment and it's at the top of my reading list when it comes out. Read Full Review

    IGN - Jesse Schedeen May 28, 2014

    As much as I was disappointed that this arc didn't showcase more of life on Planet X and the romance that grew between Havok and Wasp during those five years, this issue does at least make the most of their evolved relationship and the question of what happens to their daughter if this future is undone. Perhaps what this issue showcases more than anything is that there are consequences to this extended conflict. Perhaps the Avengers will succeed in travelling back, saving their dead comrades, and avenging the Earth. But even with reality going back to normal, there will be consequences for these characters. That sense of consequence is a tough thing to achieve in time travel-oriented stories. Read Full Review

    One Quest - Chris Cobb May 31, 2014

    This arc of Uncanny Avengers is close to wrapping up (I think anyway), so the next couple issues are probably going to be intense and full of action. Issue 20 though was definitely the transition issue that starts it all, and it's well worth checking out, especially if you've been interested in Uncanny Avengers already. Read Full Review

    Major Spoilers - Matthew Peterson Jun 2, 2014

    In short, Uncanny Avengers #20 is the total package, with engaging story, great art and nice bits of character for even the most tenured Avengers, even if the length of the story so far is a bit disconcerting. Read Full Review

    Comics: The Gathering - F.D. White May 28, 2014

    This issue is action-packed, with just enough emotional heft to carry the reader through. I’m excited for the Planet X arc to be over now, and see where the future (or past) of Uncanny Avengers takes us next. Read Full Review

    All-Comic - Kyle Welch May 30, 2014

    With Original Sin in full swing it's interesting to see another story worthy of an event in progress and not getting the love it deserves. Avenge the Earth is an arc that has the weight and feel of a classic Avenger's story. Remender continues to bring pieces together from all 20 issues and even his X-Force run. Issue 20 moves the story along at a brisk pace and prepares you for what should be an exciting next issue. Read Full Review

    Geeked Out Nation - Jay Bamberhil May 30, 2014

    This book is worth reading, especially if you have read the first two parts of the arc, but I am hoping Remender begins to bring it all back into a more cohesive package for the ending. Read Full Review
