Avengers vs X-Men # 10 Spoilers - Hope Goes Kung Fu Fighting

AvX-Zone- 000

In this week's issue we find we see Cyclops finally finding out Hope's exact whereabouts. As to why he still needs Hope when he already has the a half of the Dark Phoenix's power perplexes me but this is a simple plot point so on with it.

AvX # 6 - Best Moments and Spoilers

Here are the best moments and major spoilers for AvX # 6 by Jonathan Hickman and Olivier Coipel.

A vs.X-Zone 000


I'm reading a lot of positive responses from the AVX readers regarding the whole new status quo brought about by the arrival of the Phoenix Five. The book definitely changes it's pace for Act Two and here some of the cool things from AvX # 6.

A vs.X-Zone 010


The SIEGE PERILOUS err the SIEGE COURAGEOUS returns to modern X-Lore. And its Colossus that comes out of it. Take note, a non-naked, non-amnesiac PhoenixLosus. Whether Roma has returned or not, we'll have to wait and see.

Top Five Mutant Substitutes for AVX's Phoenix Five

AVX # 5 ended with a whooper with the Phoenix Force selecting five mutants rather than just it's supposed host Hope Summers; thus giving birth to the so-called Phoenix Five.

That got me thinking, who are some of the other mutants that could have been awesome if they were present during the whole transformation? Here are some potential substitutes for Marvel's Phoenix Five.

5. Rogue

Rogue-marvel-superheroines-8435791-408-646


While Rogue never had any real connection to the Phoenix force, she does have a "connection" with Hope. They have an affinity for each other and while the current writers might have forgotten about this, there are hints all over old issues of Uncanny that there's an unresolved plot that involves the two.

As for the Phoenix five sub list, I vote for Rogue because she can really live up to her potential. Imagine Rogue wearing a phoenix emblem uniform and then absorbing the powers of mutants she encounters. Not only that, she actually boosts those powers and keep it to herself or she could even share it with the four other Phoenix Force hosts.

4. Magneto

Avengers vs X-Men # 5 - Five Mutants Become the Phoenix

Marvel wasn't kidding when they showed the cover for AvX # 5 featuring three central characters becoming a host for the Phoenix.


We left the AvX # 4 with a handful of X-Men and Avengers getting ready for another battle with Hope Summers and Wolverine getting caught in the middle.

This time its all out war in the blue area of the moon with the fate of young Hope and the rest of the world in the balance. Meanwhile Iron Man and Giant Man work on a new armor that might turn help slow down the Phoenix's descent to Earth.

I loved that the book still showed a lot of gorgeous battles while at the same time moving the story nicely along. See what I mean? Don't let Bendis write the book if you don't want a book filled with talking heads and a dragging pace.

Wolverine and the X-Men # 10 Spoilers

That awesome moment when Wolverine and Cyclops decide to have "THE TALK" about their beliefs after Schism.








And surprisingly, this happened after the Avengers storm the beaches of Utopia and the eventual escape of Hope Summers from the island.

Anyway, Wolverine and the X-Men # 10 did not have a lot of action but we've got to hand it to Jason Aaron and Chris Bachalo to deliver a book that's still entertaining.

Ms. Marvel and Thor show their Power


Ms. Marvel and Thor in action AVX


With a "mysterious object" crashing into New York City airspace, two of the Avengers' biggest hitters respond by averting further disaster. It's not a spoiler or anything but its pretty cool to see Ms. Marvel (soon to be the new Captain Marvel) and Thor doing their best to save people's lives and avoid further property damage.
