Let us talk about Avengers Vs. X-Men

Okay, i've seen the teasers, i've seen the covers, i've read the preview, i'm ready to start analyzing Marvel's forthcoming mega-event "Avengers Vs. X-Men," or its abbreviation, AvX. The solicits make it out to be pretty much a child's dream come true with the two premier Marvel super teams duking it out for some reason. Or, the Phoenix Force is coming back, whatever. Either way, it's a brilliant and tragically easy marketing plan: Pit your franchises against each other. People invested in both will buy. Organize two teams and give them something to fight over. It's a sporting event. It's football, it's mma, it's.......WAR!!!!

Okay, these came out today:


Good. Cyclops challenging Captain America as the alpha male of the Marvel U might be the most intriguing selling point of this series.

This is whatever. No real conflict between these two, just the two big guys on each team getting matched up. Should be a good brawl though.

I'm psyched for this. Good clash of characters who don't immediately come to mind as dance partners. This should be very entertaining, and Luke Cage deserves a big ass fight like this. This is Luke Cage making the jump from preliminary fighter to main card fighter. Excellent. 



Cringe worthy dialogue...eh.


This should be fun.
