The cover with Hope(Phoenix Force) is AWESOME!!! They should have Hope on every cover, lol.

The variant cover for #3 by Sara Pichelli is even better!



I like this one too.

I find JR JR's art MUCH more acceptable when its stuff like Thor in space rather than something more realistic.

Why JRJR, his art is horrible.

Marvel could have fixed this awful art by simply having JR.JR. only provide rough pencils and have another artist finish them. It's his finishes that are so damned ugly. If someone like Perez or Maguire were to finish these pencils it would look so much better

Please Marvel, we beg of you, please get rid of JRJR...

At least until he goes back to his older drawing style. Tired of seeing other great story absolutely ruined by that chicken scratch. Damn near unreadable.

JRJ's art is an acquired taste. I remember as a kid not liking him at all, but now I find his stuff to be really exceptional.

It is not lookin' good for Thor and his team. They have NO CHANCE IN HELL though I'll give an 'A' for effort.

Yeah I really believe the industry has evolved past JRJR's art. For instance the post above of his early Iron Man art looks fine for the period, but by todays standards looks very dated.

He completely ruined world war hulk for me, and I didn't even buy Wolverine: Enemy of the State because of his art. Looks like I'll be skiping AvsX as well.

Give me Epting, Lark, Malev or Lee anyday of the week

I feel like they are rotating the writers all wrong. So far it's been a writer writes an issue an hands it off to the next guy. They should all get even numbers of issues, and each get story arcs to write before handing it off the next guy.

No team wins...

Marvel would not allow it, otherwise one team will always be a loser over the other team...

It ain't gonna happen...
