the Mighty Avengers #28 - Marvel

Finally! Finally someone is on to the Scarlet Witch. Stature is spying on her and overhears her talking about her brother. "It appears no one heard your cry for help. And now, no one shall. Should you die in battle, that's on less problem for me to . . ." The problem is, she doesn't know that it's Loki. If she did she might've used a little more subterfuge. As it is, the Scarlet Witch is on her pretty quick and she casts a spell so she can't say anything about her. She can still talk, she just can't say a word about the Scarlet Witch. Loki trys to put a plan in place to get her kicked off the team, but Hank is too soft-hearted. Even though she gave up their plans to the FF, when they were fighting, he knows that it's only because she was conflicted between family and teammates. So instead, her and the Vision head back to the real world. Her plan is to get the Young Avengers into the mansion, and then use them to back her up when she goes to confront the Witch. The Scarlet Witch makes pretty short work of the young team, but . . while sneaking into the new Infinite Mansion, Clint Barton, Ronin, came snooping around. So now, next issue, he's going to confront the Scarlet Witch himself. Anyways, that wasn't really what this issue was all about. Most of the issue was spent bringing us up to date on USAgent, and Quicksilver in China. They're there to help GRANDPA with an Inhuman threat . . the Unspoken. He's been trying to get back in to Attilan's favor ever since he was kicked out. But he went over the edge when he found out that Black Bolt used Agon's Contingency to take Attilan to the moon. That's basically when he declared war on the Earth and it's people. But our Avengers are still on their own because Loki cancelled their transmission when Pietro tried to call for help. However, after fighting amongst themselves a bit, it looks like they may be able to team-up with the army of Chinese super-heroes that the Unspoken had just defeated. I'm really liking this team more and more with every issue. It was nice to see the Young Avengers, and Ronin involved in the story this issue. I think Dan Slott and Christos Gage are doing a great job with this story, and these characters. I wasn't' sure about it at first, but . . they're really growing on me. I'm also diggin' Khoi Pham's art. I'd have to say that right now this book, in my opinion, ranks higher than the New Avengers book. And . . I'm starting to like it more than the Initiative.
