FINALLY! Geez...[frick] me with an iron rod, so no more setbacks?! I'm tired of waiting an extra two months just to finish off this series. It's suppose to tie in with AvX, so make it [frick]ing so.

God damn it, Cassie. What did your father tell you, huh?

Oh joy. Some fighting between Vision and Iron Lad. Who didn't see that coming?

Right? My money pays your ink wells, Heinberg and Cheung. Finish the damn thing already.

It's one of the better written series that has happened in a while, to be honest. I like how they brought back the Scarlet Witch, the art was insane, and it really brings everything together from a nice generational perspective.

Of course, some eye rolling, "Oh no, why am I not surprised" moments happen, but this is one of the better reads.

The timeline confusion has gotten me as well. Vision was JUST rebuilt a couple months ago by Tony Stark and is now part of the Avengers. So is THIS Vision the same Vision that just came back to the Avengers? Or is this a previous Vision that is either gonna die in this issue or there will there be two?

shit.....

NOTE: Because work began on this series many months ago, there are some seeming discrepancies as regards the attire of certian characters, particularly Captain America and Iron Man. By the time this series concludes, it should become apparent where its events fall within the overall ongoing continuity. Until then, we feel confident that our loyal readers will be able to overlook these seeming inconsistencies. Relax, and enjoy the show...

@Marvel87

Of course, the issues being the Extremis armor and Cap's uniform. Good thing the guys were thoughtful enough to say, "Eh, don't worry about it. Stop thinking so hard."

lol, probably just didn't want to give up the gist on AxV.

It's definitely after Fear Itself though, during around the time of or after Schism, I think.

Also, found another leak.



If it offends anyones' fragile sensibilities...too damn bad. Get over yourself. Assholes like you are reasons why things get delayed, if they were ever concerned about the bigoted fanboy backlash.

Haven't been reading this. WTF is going on here???? If the Iron Lad can go forward and save her, then why is the Vision against it? Furthermore, if he can go forward, why doesn't he go backwards and avoid the chaos altogether???

Why would anyone ever fall in love with The Vision? I mean, he's a friggin' robot! I never understood it, never will.

@mctrinket

Hey, you'd have to ask The Scarlet Witch. Nothing sexier than a angry-red cyborg programmed to uphold justice and reason.

@tripttwe

I thought the same thing. It's not like they didn't go back into the past (albeit by accident) already and bring Ant-Man and Hawkeye back to life (oops Spoilers? [frick] it. This series has been going on for wayyy too long by now, anyway).

Instead of saving her, Iron Lad could prevent it altogether. They all could. But then that might change the outcome of the fight, and many more might die if Doom has't been defeated.

I don't know. These kids...

I imagine Vision is against it on principle. Why sully Cassie's sacrifice with the off-chance that you might be able to bring her back.
