ComicBookResources.com has the preview of #3, as the split in the argument on the Avenger's side is revealed and hot heads lock horns.



As I have argued before, Captain America only wants to take Hope to someplace where the Phoenix cannot reach her and contain the problem. Logan has a more... permanent.... solution.

Huh. At the very least, this reaction makes sense. Are you sure we're still seeing AvX here?

Are they going to those places searching for Hope though? Why there?

"When in doubt, kill it" really is Logan's default setting, isn't it?

To be fair, in Uncanny X-Men, Hope says that she did agree with Logan that if things got out of hand and she's about to become dangerous with power, he should kill her if it means saving lives--the problem is she doesn't think she's at that point yet.

And hell, at least this makes more sense then the "kill it" mode Logan was in during Children's Crusade.

I don't think it's a good idea for Cap to be punching a guy with an Adamantium Skeleton in the jaw.

A vs. X may be amusing when the smoke clears but so far it's a lot like much Civil War was to me. A few interesting moments, but mostly a lot of people REALLY acting out of character so they can have their big super hero battle royale.

In a related note, this story makes no damn sense. I would think the odds of stopping Phoenix from destroying the Earth would be better with a host sympathetic to Earth trying to influence it. Odds are it wouldn't work, but what's stopping Phoenix from just trashing the planet now?

I see the "stupid beam" that affected the X-Men last issue is now getting to the Avengers. Cap should know Scott's already tried the "hitting Logan to make him listen" trick. If it didn't work then, what makes Steve think it'll work now?

Wow

I am sorry, but thats just stupid.

They are on a transport going somewhere, have a disagreement, and so Cap punches him. I dunno man, when I disagree with a co-worker when they tell me "I don't agree with your idea", my default reaction is not to hit them with a chair.

I guess they did not want to spend panels with a protracted argument between them that would make sense to lead to blows. But still... And this is Brubaker? Man, I expect more from him then this. I hope the preview is just making this look worse then it really is.

I'm just wondering what makes Logan think the Phoenix will just leave if Hope dies, rather than going berserk and nuking Earth?

Because when Captain America's fists talk, people listen.

I think most Marvel writers/editors default to "everyone respects Cap, so they SHOULD listen to him". Now whether or not anyone actually does...

Right. Or just picking another host. Like the Scarlet Witch.

In further fracturing, the events of New Avengers 25 imply (SPOILERS)



that Iron Fist has been charged with protecting the Pheonix's host by his masters, so he might be joining team X-Men

One can respect Cap while still pointing out that in the case of the Phoenix he's arguing against the experts. Both sets of experts.

Is it just me or is anyone else annoyed by the rotating writers? What on earth made them decide to do a series this way?

I'm not disagreeing, I'm just saying that writers occasionally are lazy and use convenient reasons to justify actions that make no damn sense.

You know, like Captain America busting Wolverine in the grill.

They should have just named this series

"A bunch of Marvel Heroes beating the snot out of each other for no good reason".

I can live with it as long as we don't get an issue traced by Land.

They're all Marvel's architects, so the appeal is, I guess, to see each of them work on a series together; It worked for 52, after all. Of course, in this instance it just feels like a disjointed clusterfuck.

Really? When someone disagrees with me at work, that's my first reaction. That's probably the reason people usually only disagree with me through emails/interns.

Yeah, and also, it isn't like bringing dead folk back to life is one of the Phoenix's main tricks.

The only reason they didn't is because it wouldn't fit in the "title" blank on the order form.

Given how few mutants there are left, those places are thin on the ground, in fact I can think of only two, and she's just left one.

The lack of dynamism in Romita Jr's work lends the final panel an air of bland tedium. Paradoxically, I find this highly amusing. Truly, this is just another day at the office for Captain America. He's going through the motions; walking through the part. Nothing seems to penetrate his... heart.
