I love the Golden Age characters, but not very well-constructed. The writing is awkward and sloppy, as is the art.

It felt like this book wanted to be good, but just didn't know how. But Namor calling like all the Elder Gods was amusing.

My first comic books were Hulk and Defenders books, but the first series I really started reading was the Invaders. When I was a kid, holed up in someone's office waiting for the work day to end or killing a deadtime Sunday, there was something about the unambiguous evil of not just Nazis, but SUPER Nazis, like Master Man, Red Skull, & Barons Strucker, Zemo and Blood meeting justice at the hands of Captain America (likely where my lifelong obsession was born), Bucky, the original Human Torch, the original Vision, the completely unlikeable (and written that way) Namor, Toro, Spitfire, Whizzer and Union Jack. Simpler names from simpler times, evoking the shared pride in the Allied effort in WWII.
This comic reunites Jim Hammond, the original Torch, and the orginal Vision with Cap & Namor, and the Winter Solider, AKA Bucky. They do not shy away from current continuity, nor do they bury the past or try to re-set. They are a superhero band of brothers, and they explicitly make that clear. This volume reaches deep in Marvel's history and requires you to keep up - the story's a little TOO straightforward, and the art isn't my favorite, but this will still get a second read.
