Review: New Avengers #42
New Avengers #42
Writer: Brian Michael Bendis
Pencils: Jim Cheung; Inks: John Dell
I am getting so tired of these interminable flashbacks.
Yes, I know that Brian Michael David Bendis has been planning Secret Invasion meticulously since before he was born. I just don’t need to read about every single freakin’ detail of the Skrulls plan in every single freakin’ issue of ‘New Avengers’ and ‘Mighty Avengers’ for the past three freakin’ months!
TMI. OK?
And while I’m ranting, it would be helpful if Jim Cheung could draw characters so we know who is who. The sequence between ‘Jessica Drew’ and Madame Hydra is so unbelievably confusing because both characters look exactly the same.
Oh and Wolverine cameos in a flashback.
