Avengers #10

Danger Room meet the Avengers, Avengers meet the Danger Room.

Our heroes split up to recover the remaining Infinity Gems leading each team into a bit of trouble as the members of the Illuminati didn't exactly make them easily accessible. Along the way we learn Noh-Varr doesn't understand sarcasm (much to Spider-Man's dismay), and the fact that Tony Stark now owns Area 51.

Issue 10 is filled with action and some very entertaining interplay between out heroes. There's a humorous one-page conversation between Ant-Man and Iron Fist while the pair are stuck together on monitor duty (and similar situation between Hawkeye and Mockingbird), Spider-Woman and Ms. Marvel's reaction to the Danger Room, and Iron Man's attempt to justify his actions.

All that plus our heroes finally come face-to-face with the villain amassing the Infinity Gems for himself - the Hood (who's gotten his grubby hands on yet another gem). Must-read.

[Marvel $3.99]
