Avengers Prime: Mark Waid Edition

Steve Rogers, Iron Man and Thor accidentally get sucked into one of Thor’s locales. There, they all have their separate moments of being badass, deal with Enchantress and Hela and a subplot involves Rogers hooking up with a blue elf lady. That might be a little scummy, since that means he’s cheating on Sharon, but I’m pretty sure the “what happens in Vegas” rule applies to most of the nine realms. The point of the miniseries is to put the three guys in a situation that reminds them that they’re buddies and thick as thieves.
But still, the ending rang pretty familiar to me…
Odin’s will be done.
AAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
(Though, now I wish Alan Davis drew one of the Avengers making a scowl when the hug happens…)

by Joe England January 8th, 2011 at 09:45 --replyYeah, Alan Davis is a great artist, no doubt, but it always did bug me how he draws people with the dopiest damn expressions on their faces.
Ha! Great.
