The New Avengers, Volume 2: Sentry by Brian Michael Bendis
4.0
In my review of Volume 1, I said I would keep reading "just to see how the group evolves and how they resolve the Sentry plot-line." Well Volume 2 is one for two by those standards. There is a great resolution to the Sentry plot line. I think it is one of the most imaginative hero/origin stories I have ever read. But there is no evolution of the New Avengers, there is actually very little time spent with them. Why is that? Mostly because of this:
That's right -- Namor, The Fantastic Four, The X-Men, The Inhumans, Doctor Strange -- all of these characters have guest spots in this four-comic volume, with an especially meaty role being given to Emma Frost. Which doesn't really answer the question of how the New Avengers really fit together, but with this ridiculous line-up of all stars, who really cares?
