• It's socialism gone wild as the U.S.Avengers literally punch the business leaders of tomorrow right in their faces!
• Are there extenuating circumstances, or have we just gone mad? You'll have to read the comic to find out!
• Also, the Golden Skull makes his incredibly ostentatious, jewel-encrusted last stand!
Rated T+
Al Ewing continues to be one of Marvel's most talented and overlooked writers, taking a team of lesser-known heroes and making them, well, U.S.Avengers. Read Full Review
I know I'm a late-comer to Ewing's brand of Avengers, but I'm having a blast. The roster works well together and is made up of characters I mostly enjoy, even the newbies. I can't wait to see him dive a bit deeper into the team and their interactions. Everything is working with this comic right now. Read Full Review
Ewing provides little closure and the art awkwardly shifts hand in the finale of "U.S.Avengers'" first story-arc. Read Full Review
Is this ever gonna be cannon???? Nope. should it be??? YUP!!!! Love the combination of powers and how they finally ended the arc. A good fun story with awesome art staff (too numerous to name). Overall don't miss out this fun ride.
This opening arc wasn’t dragged out, had plenty of action, and was overall pretty good. Impressed so far and I hope USAvengers can keep this up
The Golden Skull folds up like beginner origami against the USAvengers. I think this book suffers from a bit of lazy plotting. When a lame villain challenges a team of heavy hitters, you really want him to have some clever tricks up his sleeve, not to be immediately and dismissively steamrollered. That's how you dispose of the act 1 throwaway villain, not the act 3 mastermind. Even when he's being lazy, Al Ewing is still an incredibly good writer, and this issue is a distinct cut above satisfactory. It's just also distinctly less than epic.
SCORE: 7.9
