Thor Marvel Legends figure review BAF Allfather wave

Thor is another of my favorite Avengers. I love that he’s essentially the team’s big gun who bats cleanup when their most powerful foes have knocked everyone else out and Captain America has held him back in reserve.

4 Reasons why The All-New Avengers may be its best roster yet

Unlike their DC counterparts, Marvel Comics has hit the sweet spot of shaking up its universe while not ticking off longtime readers. I can speak from experience as my DC Comic purchases dropped dramatically after the New 52 debuted and Marvel’s changing directions convinced me to give more of their books a try and I haven’t regretted either decision yet.

Marvel is unleashing its big universe shifting event — Secret Wars — and we’ve already got a preview of one of the biggest fallouts from the event the All-New, All-Different Avengers. And it’s a pretty kick tail lineup sure to appeal to longtime fans, movie fans and folks who want a comic team featuring characters that resemble them.
