Okay so I read this years ago and didn't love it. 10 years later? Yeah...still don't love it.

The Avengers are viciously attacked. By whom you ask? We don't know. However, once the attacks begin, we see a bunch of them get killed off. Ant-man, Hawkeye, Vision, death is all around us. After they are completely fucked up it ends up that one of their own might be the person behind all the death and slaughter. This kind of sets up later events like House of M and such.

Good: I thought the art for most part was solid. Also, the deaths are pretty vicious and kind of fucked up. The stakes feel high, and the start of it is very intriguing.

Bad: The last half is long, overblown, and kind of not all that interesting. The villain isn't a big surprised and the characters all break up but you know they coming back together.

Overall it's a okay event. A 2.5 out of 5 would be right but I'll hit it with a 3 just because.

Monsour I also read this along time ago, I agree the 2nd half is not really good as the first.


Chad I actually thought it was pretty cool at the time, especially since the Avengers outside of Kurt Busiek's run had been terrible for the 10-15 previous years.

I don't doubt that, but just felt kind of meh for me.
