I like how Spider-Woman tries to trick them by pretending she's undercover for Hydra promising start but will wait and see what actually happens.

Shouldn't it say Brian Bendis and Renato Guedes..ses "Avengers" # 21 ?

Yeah. I liked it too. Looking forward to this issue.

Yeah, I thought the art looked much improved over the last few issues. I think I would like Acuna's art much better if it were inked by someone else. He's okay, but the way his art is inked and colored just does not "pop" like an Avengers book should. Same complaint about Deodato's New Avengers work. It was great for Dark Avengers, but the heroic Avengers need more bombastic imagery.

Hulks with Spider powers?
So these dudes can create human Super Skrulls? At the end of this arc there seriously needs to be an explanation if all these things are still running around.

And why does she need a phone? Avengers dont have kick ass communicators or something?

[RLAAMJR.]

I hope Storm would do something great in Avengers #21. Well. she's on the front of the cover. : )

I'm glad to see Spider-Woman finally getting into action again, the only other time I remember her doing anything of significance was during the FI tie ins.

So far Renato's art looks pretty good though, it's not 100% consistent with Daniel's art but it does retain a somewhat cleaner look.

That preview page pic of a Giantman about to punch a Quinjet looks like the Osborn in Avengers #24.

Loved that Jessica started to act like Veranke and tried to scam the Hulk Hydra agents, by king hitting Hawkeye and then acting like a Hydra Agent.

Oh god... I think that's Quake listed as Maria Hill on that recap page...

Agreed! I'm disappointed characters like Spider-Woman, Hawkeye, Mockingbird, and Ms. Marvel rarely get any story time compared to Iron Man, Captain America, or the Red Hulk (UGH). This looks to change that. But man, I wish Marvel would find an artist for this book that can draw a sexy Spider-Woman.

On a side note: I like the idea of Viper being Jessica Drew's mother, it was a great story by Claremont.
