Bendis proves that he can write a single-issue team story with Free Comic Book Day Avengers, a one-shot that finally shows a confrontation between real and poseur Avengers (New and Dark), albeit briefly. So forget the misleading NA # 50 cover; this is where it happens.
Some gripes: You’d wish that Ronin, Warbird and Mockingbird did and said more. You’d also wish the other Avengers books (Mighty and Initiative) were represented in their own separate FCBD story, preferably written by their writers, too. And, there’s an attempt to arrest the outlaw Avengers once again, but that’s prevented by the timely intervention of a certain Thunder god this time.
But FCBD Avengers is still fun, a cleanly told tale that nicely introduces new readers to this side of current Avengers lore.
