As Siege nears its conclusion so does the line of Avengers comics, including the Mighty Avengers.Apparently the team is ahead of the curve, as it has already (apparently) disbanded in the wake of the fate of Hercules at the end of the "Assault on New Olympus" storyline.
This issue finds Hank Pym (I still refuse to call him The Wasp) working in his lab when an old familiar foe attacks - Ultron, who has enslaved a staggering number of Jocasta replicas and has taken control of the Infinite Avengers mansion, Pym's other-dimensional, Tardis-like headquarters for his former team.
It gives Pym an impossible foe to overcome, and sets up the reveal of a secret that promises to make the next issue a must-buy (for reasons that can't be revealed here, of course).
Dan Slott continues to provide a solid story with lots of interesting twists along the way. Khoi Pham and Craig Yeung provide the art, and it's quite good with some outstanding splash panels on display.
There's only one more issue to go in this series, which has run hot and cold over the three-plus years it has been around.
It looks like it's ending on a strong note.
Grade: B+
