Avengers Vs X-Men #5

The fight for Hope Summers continues, but the battlefield has been relocated to the blue area of the moon, as we begin the second act of AVX. As Iron Man attempts a special offensive strategy against the Phoenix Force, something unexpected happens.

Not the most exciting issue to date, but at least the story turns for the better. I won’t spoil it, but let’s just say I didn’t see it coming and it adds a little bit of spice to a currently dull series. John Romita Jr. does a good job with the illustrations, especially cosmic drawings of the Phoenix Force in full flame & power mode. Written by Jason Aaron, Brian Michael Bendis, Ed Brubaker, Matt Fraction & Jonathan Hickman. From Marvel Comics.
