james_desantis 's review for:
This is the first "Complete Collection" I'm reading for New Avengers since it's cheaper to buy these then buy the single hardcovers. So here we go!
A lot and a lot of secret invasion stuff. So much in fact you'll probably be completely lost without reading the SI crossover event with the rest of the marvel universe. In here we mostly get backstories of key New Avengers and how they became skrull and such. Also you have the Dark Reign storyline coming into play when Norman Osborn becomes the leader of Avengers and president. Last but not least we get a Doctor Strange storyline where he is not the Sorcerer Supreme and now he must find a new one, but not without the help of the Avengers.
Good: The best bits of this book are the small indepdent stories really. Stuff like Luke Cage and Jessica JOnes on their first "Date" and also Peter showing who he is to everyone, and even some of the skrull stuff like what happen to Spider-woman.
Bad: The skrull stuff is spread out so far, and you need to read so much inbetween, you'll probably be lost on what the fuck is happening. I read the event about two years ago and I'm still confused. I also thought the Doctor Strange stuff, despite loving the art, was okay.
This was a mix match of fun times, good times, and sometimes confusing and boring times. Overall a solid collection but nothing mindblowing. You can tell Bendis is losing steam here.
