Avengers by Brian Michael Bendis, Vol. 3 by Brian Michael Bendis, Renato Guedes
3.0

I'm starting to think Bendis put all his ideas for Avengers in "Avengers" instead of "New Avengers" Because this run has been stronger.

This time the Avengers are trying to regroup and make a name for themselves again after everything keeps getting wrecked. Tony and Steve work together to bring the group back but when Norman comes along and tries to ruin them with PR they might be in over their heads. When each member breaks up in teams they think they might have the advantage but Norman isn't as stupid as he comes across sometimes.

This was another fun avengers book. The thing about this run it is isn't too serious. It's just avengers working together, lots of banter, some really funny lines, and they let Avengers like Spider-Woman and such shine which is really enjoyable. The end was a bit muddy but the very last issue with Vision was fantastic.

Overall solid but you can tell Bendis was getting little bored of writing Avengers.
