The New Avengers Vol. 5: Civil War
by Howard Chaykin, Olivier Coipel, Pasqual Ferry, Brian Michael Bendis, Leinil Francis Yu, Jim Cheung
The New Avengers are not friends anymore.
This occurs during one of the biggest events of all time. Civil War! In doing so this is jut a bunch of stories, different ones, all in one collection. Got a story of Spider-woman and what she's been up to. Luke Cage is settling down and fighting back against the orders of the government. Cap and Falcon working together to finally decide on saying "No" to Shield. And the end story is closer to the end of Civil War time where Tony is attacked by one of his employees for using a weapon he created on Captain America.
Good: The Luke Cage story and Tony one are actually pretty great. The art in both is top notch, the fights are wonderful, and also you feel the emotional weight of the Civil War. I really dug the reaction for each character in here to the overall "War".
Bad: This has some really bad art in the cap and falcon story. The Sentry story is boring. I can't stand the spider-woman story. It was dull and not interesting with a shit ton of exposition.
Overall this is the weakest collection so far as it doesn't feel connected as well as previous titles. However, I did love two of the stories so with that I'd go 2.5 overall when balancing it all out.
