YOUR TAKE ON THE AVENGERS LINE?

Personally, I'm bored to tears by the main book, with NEW close behind. Still loving UNCANNY (though I'm ready for a new story arc!), MIGHTY and WORLD. Didn't even bother with the latest run of SECRET.

I'm getting all of them but this storyline is dragging on a bit longer than I'd care for. I feel like Hickman's take is more high concept than I like my Avengers books to be. I'm enjoying things much more on the mutant side of things.

BY now, I've dropped everything Avengers-related except for Thor. Hickman's pacing was just too damn slow in getting to the main storyline moving. Iron Man's homecoming from space was just awful that it turned me off the book. Sharon Carter's character basically being thrown away put me off Captain America. I was reading Uncanny for a bit and I'm tempted to pick it up again to see how everything ended.

Agree on Hickman's book. It's been interesting but time to wrap it up and move on. Bring back Kang or somebody and just have a good ol' fashioned Avengers fight.

Kang is actually in Uncanny Avengers most recent arc.

Thor has been great! Black Widow has been pretty good as is Hawkeye. Cap has been tough for me to get through since Remender took over the book. Mighty Avengers is probably the most enjoyable of the Avengers books.

My take?
-Hard to follow and mainly hard to enjoy.

I just dropped the only Avengers book that I was buying:
Uncanny Avengers now that it comes a new crossover/event with the X-Men-I still shudder with the las one-

Hickman is hard to read month to month. He's great once his story is over and you can read it front to back in trade paperback.

Still getting Uncanny and Thor God of Thunder. Both phenomenal books. Though, I anticipating dropping them all soon. This ---- with Thor being a female and Cap being Falcon has turned me off. Those and Death of Wolverine are all media grabs, and I hate that garbage. So the only money Marvel will soon be getting from me is through a local cinema and via XM for their statues.

dropped avengers and new avengers a while ago, I thought infinity was awesome even if you had to be read back to back to understand it. ever since then - boring. uncanny avengers is still good, and still picking up thor god of thunder but I have a feeling the female thor thing is going to piss me off too

I buy Avengers, New Avengers, Avengers World, Mighty Avengers and Uncanny Avengers. I don't read any of the solo titles. I like Hickman so I'm fine with how things are going in his two books. Avengers World fits in nicely with them. Cannonball and Sunspot being written as comedy relief in the latest issue I thought was nice. Mighty Avengers is fun too.

The story that I think is dragging a little is actually the one in Uncanny Avengers. The Earth was blown up like five months ago now? This arc should be over already.
