A review by squidbag
Avengers World, Vol. 2: Ascension by Nick Spencer, Al Ewing

4.0

As the cover would indicate, we have a new creative team in this collection, and it focuses in large part on Hyperion, who (before the Sentry) was a none-too-subtle Marvel version of Superman from "another dimension" where the big team was called the Squadron Supreme. Their universe was wiped out (I don't know if that's meant to be part of the this Summer's big event or not) and Hyperion was brought into the 616. It's a talky philosophy class of a comic book collection, with - once again - the big battles as a backdrop to the smaller, more personal stories unfolding. If anything, the writing got cleaner with Nick Spencer, so I enjoyed that, too.
