PERSONAL COMMENTS:
I like putting the PERSONAL COMMENTS first. I mean really most of you that are looking at this right now have probably already read through this comic so me telling you the copy and pasted Synopsis from Wikia is well…. Cheating and honestly if you wanted to read that stuff you would have gone to google and typed it in.
The one that started it... wait never mind there's a zero issue. In fact there are like 11 different issue zero’s so not even close but at least they start fighting here.
Another eBay special. Special shout out to galehaut I have bought so many CGC's from this guy... or girl. But he’s the one that hooked a brotha up on this one even though I had another already ready for CGCing anyways. I guess with that in mind I’ll have to get one of those signed by Jim Cheung.
I guess this is simply the stare off before the actual fight. Favorite part of this cover is how Black Widow is holding a gun under Iceman's head. I guess if all else fails he'll chill out... du dum dum tish.
As with my goal I will either like I said above get this one signed or one of the like four I have on hand signed.
PERSONAL FAVORITE LINE:
I know Captain America better than almost anyone, if he is here, it’s already, as you say ramped up. – Namor
NOW FOR THE BORING STUFF
Published: June 2012
KEY ISSUE: It is the start of the war… Ok maybe not the start seeing as there is a Zero issue but it is number 1 and we know how number 1’s go right??? No ok well its when we first see this entire thing become an us versus them scenario.
Brian Michael Bendis story
John Romita Jr. Pencil’s
Scott Hanna Ink’s
Laura Martin Colorist
Jim Cheung Cover
Oh holy hell… How many are there of this one issue graded? ONE HUNDRED…. And What??? FIFTY THREE. Wow so this one being worth something down the road is throw out the window. So with this one the pinnacle so far is 130 9.8’s total. At least that one 9.9 out there is still ungraded. Of those 28 were 9.8 Signature Series so I really need to get on the ball with this one. Probably just crack this so I don’t add to the massive number. But if I don’t I would like to get all of the 5 listed to sign somewhere on the cover. It’s a little crowded so it may mean signing in the A and X.
Story Title: Avengers vs. X-Men (Part One) – Original title right...
MY TYPE OF SUMMARY:
So at first we see Porcupine Boy on a distant planet and because Porcupine boy doesn’t strike fear into the heart of a big giant burning bird he’s alive long enough to say daddy before Marvel wipes him off the face of the Marvel Universe. Sucks I was really hoping for an origin story.
Anyways then cuts to Nova flying at like Mach 1 Billion to Earth to warn the Avengers but when he gets here he forgets “oh yeah I’m suppose to slow down before I land.” So he slams into a plane a building and a few other things, probably kills a bunch of people and the Avengers are ready to kick has ass before they realize, “oh this is a kid Nova so its ok.” He tries to warn them but instead takes a nap.
Later Tony doing his smart thing finds out the Phoenix Force is on a pretty good trajectory for Earth. You would think eventually this bird would check out the billions of other life forms as well but I guess not.
Cut to Cyclops committing child abuse. I guess if you shoot them with lasers and kick them in the face you can call it “training” but still child abuse no matter how you look at it. So finally he pisses Hope off and she blows up. I mean actually boom blows up and not just gets angry. So she’s on fire, he’s on fire, and Magneto and Emma look on with there jaws hanging wide open.
Cut back to the Avengers. “Mr. President, We’re screwed”… yep that about sums it up there.
Then Captain America goes to see Wolverine at his new school.
CAP - “Hey Wolverine”
WOLF BOY – “Hey Cap”
CAP – “Need you to stab a girl in the chest because my morals won’t let me and you have none, also if you do it I can then make you feel bad while I still feel good about myself.”
WOLF BOY – “Ok”
So now it comes down to it. The Avengers go to Utopia and Cyclops is all, you can’t have the girl she’s one of us and because you suck and one of your Avengers committed genocide and you did nothing you still suck.
Cap calls Cyclops a bad name, Cyclops calls Cap a bad name and next thing you know Cap gets blasted away by Cyclops. Not to be undone Cap calls in the Avengers and by Avengers I mean, East Coast, West Coast, New, Old Secret, Super duper Secret, and every Avenger in between.
Not to be out done Cyclops yells X-Men Assemble and we have the beginning of an amazing series...
