The Avengers #5 

 

There are some important items concerning this comic book series that I will get into a little bit later in this review. The Avengers #5 contains twenty pages of comic book content with advertisements found all throughout the comic book. The storyline with the Impossible City and Ashen Combine continues in The Avengers #5. There will be spoilers in this review.

The Avengers #5 feels like so many other storylines I have read in the past. Things are looking dire for the heroes. The villains are stopping them at every single turn. The heroes are made to look small and weak in The Avengers #5. Then at the very end the heroes all say: "NO!" They will not lose. They will not fail. I am not sure how they can try everything and then be like now I will win. It is a very over used storyline.

I give a new comic book series I try five issues to decide if I want to keep reading it or not. I have made a decision on this comic book series. I have one more issue of The Avengers to read after The Avengers #5. There is one more of this comic book series in my pile. After that one I will stop reading The Avengers. I even took it off the document we use to determine what is the next comic book to purchase.

The issues families will have with The Avengers #5 are violence, blood, and more. The blood comes in one of the advertisements in The Avengers #5. I was able to purchase one of the variant covers that looks like a lot of old Avengers coming to the battle. The most interesting character in The Avengers #5 is the Impossible City. It once served heroes before the villains conquered them.

The Impossible City wants to commit suicide in The Avengers #5. The two Avengers up there Falcon and Black Panther are trying to talk this city down. They planted bombs all over the city to stop it. The city tells them that their bombs will not destroy it. The Impossible City has been forced to watch and/or participate in atrocities for a long time. It does not want to keep having this happen.
