New Avengers #21 - Marvel

This has consistently been an incredible book. First you have the Avengers who, let's face it, are awesome. Then you have Bendis writing it. And now with this issue we have Howard Chaykin drawing it. Talk about a Trifecta. This book, literally, has it all. Then to add icing to the cake, this is a Civil War story. I told you, I'm all for change. Well in this issue, Captain America is on the run from the U.S. government. Because he's such a role model, they really want him to take the lead on this registration act. Of course with his black&white perspective on the world, he's definitely not going to go along with that. So, he goes underground and begins assembling a team. If you've read Civil War #2, you know who this team will eventually enlist. So S.H.I.E.L.D. sends a squadron of men, "capekillers", to apprehend him, but, honestly, this is Captain America. One of them ends up being Dum Dum Dugan. "They sent a friend. Three thousand agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on active dury, and they sent a friend". This really pisses him off and he plays a little dirty pool himself to escape custody. He goes to one of Nick Fury's old bunkers. Apparently only him & Cap know about these places. And again, if you've read Civil War #2, you already know that these bunkers will be Cap's base of operation. The last part of the book is Cap & Falcon going around trying to assemble a team. Spider-man is out, because he's in league with Tony Stark. Antman/Giantman is out because he's apparently in the govt.'s pocket. So next is Luke Cage. This book is fantastic. It's been fantastic ever since the dissassembled storyline. And with Bendis at the helm, there's nothing but greatness is this books future. Every month, I can't wait for this book to come out.
