james_desantis 's review for:
Uncanny Avengers, Volume 1: The Red Shadow
by Rick Remender
Holy shit this was a freaking blast!
So after Xavier is killed by Cyclops, the world isn't to fond of mutants. This is nothing new, but Captain America decides to try and fix it. Try to join forces with mutants to show a public PR face. He chooses Scott Summer's brother, Alex, and together they create the Uncanny Avengers. Of course something awful has to bring them all together. Red Skull has taken Xaiver's brain and is using it to have people murder mutants and non-mutants alike while claiming all mutants need to be killed.
This is a action packed, insane, over the top, and extremely fun volume. The start was a little rough at points. But as soon as the avengers and x-men all began working as a team to take down red skull it was great. However, the stakes felt higher, as the heroes don't always win. Then the PR meeting and trying to show a new face to mutants will never work out as hoped.
Great character development, fun dialogue, and solid pacing. The art is a bit iffy at points as is the story at the start but all come together to hand you something super fun. A 4 out of 5.
