This is more like it ! After a disappointing second issue (or was that issue 1 part 2?) there was much more content to enjoy in this one. The meddling of the everpresent Loki is fully justified with an insightful exchange between him and one of the Avengers. Entertaining with good character writing and a few surprises along the way. Can't wait for the return of the prehistoric Avengers!

flodid reviewed Avengers #2 May 18, 2018
A disappointing issue. Nothing really happens and it feels like a rip-off from Marvel selling us two first issues instead of one. The final "reveal" is not a surprise to anyone, the art is good overall but sometimes a bit cartoony. Of course, Aaron is used to build things for the long run, but with this one he's really testing our patience.

The day Jason Aaron stops writing Thor will be the saddest day ever. Jane has been my favorite Thor by a country mile and even though I think her death is being written by a master writer. Part of me wonders if her soul is somehow going to be Odinson's new weapon as he returns to lead this book. No matter what this has been masterfully written, drawn, and colored. The struggle and color drips off more
