Mark Waid writes good superhero stories; Kingdom Come, the FF "Imaginauts" arc(s), Heaven's Ladder, Empire; the man's chops are not to be questioned. He will make you care about the team which is assembled. Here, he not only nails some teen dialogue, but also introduces a moment between new Thor and new Cap that will thrill you and break your heart, while doing the same with the Vision, who is sometimes hard to write compellingly. The Big Bad is a little predictable, but still well done, and the non-linear presentation of some of the plot elements give us something like unreliable narrator without falling back on cheap shit like that (I'm looking at you, Gillian Flynn). The art in this is top-of-the-line and expressive, and I look forward to the obligatory three volumes or so of this team before the line-up changes again.
