You really can't miss when Bendis is at the helm.This book proves it once again.The way These teams jell is sometimes funny & always amusing.The New Avengers line up does tend to change a bit, but there's a core group that really keeps the magic working. Immonen does the art in the first part. Acuna takes over after chapter one then Deodato finishes.All are wonderful.
There's a great back-up story from 1959 about Nick Fury assembling the first attempt at an Avengers team With members like Kraven the hunter, Victor Creed ,Ulysses Bloodstone ,Namora ,Dominic Fortune & Silver Sable all to take down the Red Skull.This story is worth the cover price.

Bendis, Immonen, & the Avengers... It rocks. The heroic age is starting to show it's flaws, but the team is great. Bendis has a knack for making team books with Characters that play off of each other well. Spidey, Luke Cage, and Ben Grimm pretty much constantly rip on each other... Wolverine is there to make the book popular. Yeah, people complain that he's in every book (he is), but he actually fits better on this team than he does on the non-adjectivised Avengers. He's the great buddy character for Spidey to play off. Spider-man is the quippy optimist and Wolverine is the grim pessimist. They do a pretty good superheroey Abbot & Costello.

I like Luke Cage's "New Avengers" team. This group of misfits amazingly works well together and the team banter is entertaining. Here, Dr. Strange officially joins the team, which I was glad to see. I also love that this group is more willing to say it like it is. When Victoria Hand gives everyone their first paycheck as Avengers, Luke tries to refuse them out of misplaced pride. Until Jessica sets him straight - in front of everyone. These two are probably the best part of this series since they really do act like a married couple, with all the ups and downs that entails.

This book flips between two missions. The main mission of the New Avengers is to confront the continuing threat of HAMMER. Though Osborn was brought down, many in the former organization still have resources and are trying to reestablish a power base. Hand sends the team to shut down a new branch before it gets operational and it goes badly -with Mockingbird being shot. Hand's true motivation is ambiguous and I'm interested to see where the author goes with her. The other mission is that of Nicky Fury set in the past. The book rotates between the two tales the point where they will inevitably tie together. I really don't like this story-telling device because it steals momentum from both stories as they always switch just when things get going. And while the New Avengers mission is action packed with lots of humor, Fury's mission is a slow burn where most of the tale is him building a new team. *yawn*

I enjoyed the main mission of the New Avengers as it sets the stage for what is sure to be some kind of follow-up with Norman Osborn. I could have skipped Fury's mission as the tie-in was weak and mostly unnecessary. He shows up with something that will have unforeseen consequences for Mockingbird. Overall, this was a solid read which would have been better without the trip into the past.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another fast-paced action-packed read
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 27, 2012
As the other review for this book has stated, this second volume does lack the fast pace of the first volume. The first volume was, technically, one long scene, so it was incredibly coherent and fast-paced. This volume is still as fast-paced and action-packed, it's just that it is not just one long scene like the first.
The first issue of this issue is simply about the aftermath of the first volume. The New Avengers deal with repairing the damage done to Avengers Mansion during Agamotto's attack, Doctor Strange joins the New Avengers, Spider-Man announces he doesn't trust Victoria Hand because of her links to Norman Osborn, and Luke Cage and Jessica Jones hire Squirrel-Girl as their baby's nanny.
The second issue is Luke Cage and Ms Marvel vs a Doombot who crashed into New York. This doesn't really add anything to the overall plot of the series, but still, there is some good action.
The other issues in this volume, however, do follow one coherent story: The New Avengers decide to hunt down what's left of Hammer. Why? Well, why not? Anyway, the New Avengers leap straight into a full-on attack on Hammer's new leader's headquarters, leading into a massive fight with an army of Hammer soldiers, in which Mockingbird is shot. This is a great scene. Brian Michael Bendis being the great writer he is, and Mike Deodato being the absoluetly amazing artist he is, the two make this scene extemely epic and chaotic, with Mockingbird falling in the middle of the chaotic, explosive battle as a third Spider-Man and Doctor Strange and the police race to get her to the ambulances, Wolverine and Ms Marvel fight off Hammer, and Luke Cage and Iron Fist drive away with the truck-loads and Hammer weapons and equipment which they had gone there to steal in the first place. (Just a warning, the rest of this paragraph may have a few spoilers). The Avengers, obviously, lose this battle, unofficially retreating. Mockingbird is hospitalised and Hawkeye rejoins the New Avengers (he left half-way through volume one to be on the main Avengers team) to help fight the ones who put her there. Questions arise as to whose side Victoria Hand is on, as she is shown to be working on both sides, leading them both in to a battle with each other. The New Avengers then attack Hammer's leader again. This fight is A LOT shorter and less chaotic than the other fight as it is just her and no Hammer soldiers this time. Nick Fury shows up and arrests her. The End.

4.0 out of 5 stars Les nouveaux New Avengers s'institutionalisent (à peu près)
Reviewed in France on September 24, 2011
Sept numéros des New Avengers sont ici compilés. Du point de vue des dessinateurs, cela donne le dernier n° du run initial de Stuart Immonen, un fill-in (de luxe) de Daniel Acuna et un arc complet partagé entre l'appliqué Mike Deodato et le "culte" Howard Chaykin ( American Flagg! ). Au scénario, on retrouve l'inamovible Brian M. Bendis. Nous sommes globalement en bonne compagnie (euphémisme). Héritière de l'équipe de Captain America lors de la Guerre Civile, cette équipe de New Avengers est désormais légale et appointée par le gouvernement via le commandeur Rogers. Ce qui n'est pas forcément facile à intégrer pour Luke Cage et qui est compliqué pour Spider-man et son identité secrète. Cette équipe de personnages très humains, avec leurs grandes qualités et leurs gros défauts, est particulièrement sympathique. Mais, pourquoi Rogers a-t-il souhaité lui affecter Miss Victoria Hand comme "agent de liaison" et quel jeu joue cette dernière ? Deux questions au centre de cet album. Une autre grave question : qui veut faire quoi avec une formule de super-soldat (celle, retrouvée, qui a créé Captain America ?) mixée avec un philtre d'immortalité (celui-là même qui fait de Nick Fury un éternel quadra ?) ? Assurément du taf' pour les nouveaux Vengeurs mais un peu plus de discipline dans cette équipe éviterait des drames... Au passage, on fait connaissance avec une sélection de Vengeurs millésimée 1959 (la première ?), à l'effectif encore plus bizarre que celui des New Avengers, pour ne pas dire discutable...

Loving this post Civil War/ Fear itself line up. Features my absolute fave, Mockingbird in her best suit ever. Immomen's art is exceptional and always great to see Chaykin on any Marvel book. Bendis has invigorated the Marvel universe in recent years and sought out some of the more interesting characters.
Squirrel Girl anyone?
Fantastic.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 24, 2012
I found this disappointing compared to Bendis' other works, it lacked conhesion and jumped around too much, I felt some of the characters were uncharacteristically dim and said things they really wouldn't and shouldn't have. Wolverine has been way too happy/chummy over the last couple of trades and I really don't like JRJr's art, IMO it's sloppy and doesn't do the title any justice.

I bought it because it's part of the run and had to read it to keep up to date with the story, but still not Bendis' best work. Saying that, I bet its going to be important to some massive event that's coming up, as with the last New Avengers/mots of Marvel run up to Siege! One or two bad stories will be tolerated if the overall is mind blowing! We will have to wait and see...
