Me encantó. El arte es hermoso y la historia ni se diga. La dinámica de la familia Maximoff es muy interesante de leer y de verdad me quedé con ganas de leer más sobre ellxs, en especial de Wanda.

I absolutely loved this, it was such a thoroughly enjoyable read. The story was fun, fast-paced and very engaging and the art was fantastic. I'm so glad I went into this having already read House of M and the X-Factor volumes that took place in that timeline as it gave me the background knowledge to get some real satisfaction out of the revelations/resolutions in this collection, and to get excited at the appearance of some familiar X-faces. 4.75 stars

Finally seeing what happened to Wanda after House of M. This was a really good story and serves as a great re-introduction of the scarlet witch. The conclusion of house of m happens in Avenger vs X men after this. The only part that falls a little short is during the Dr Doom plot, I just thought something lacked.

Billy's being tested here for his capabilities if he's as powerful as his mother. I like the struggle and the team dynamics though weren't focused much. The drawing is epic in scale. The close ups and movements, and the rich darker colors. I'm not sure about rewriting some events and repercussions of Disassembled but the inclusion of Doom is quite welcome. Wanda is sure a loveable person... or maybe it's just her powers somehow affecting their minds?
The inclusion of X-Men, X-Factor and Avengers making a case for justice is good conflict. Sometimes I'm not comfortable with Wanda being manipulated, she using her powers while possessed or controlled, being decided by other men what to do. She's a woman here and it seems all the people making a case for what to do with her or what she should do are men. She's very powerful, with reality-altering powers but she's reduced to being helpless and unstable. Well I get all that instability and conflicted state.
All in all, this is still a great Young Avengers-- now Avengers-- story. I like what Billy or Teddy said at the end that is also true in life, you just gotta show up. Whatever it might be, you gotta show up, and never give up.

[30th July 2021] I love so much of this and hope that it gets adapted at least somewhat faithfully.

[January 22nd 2021] I was going to wait until the finale of Wandavision to read this, however, today's episode made me CRAVE this. And, wow, did it deliver. The action, the character-work and the amazing art was absolutely spectacular. Wiccan's relationship with Hulkling and brotherhood with Speed (as well as his relationships with Wanda and Pietro) were all explored perfectly. I adored this.
