Title: too complicated for all but the most dedicated fans
Product review: This story primarily attempts to explain contradictions from nearly 40 years of Avengers history. Sadly, the biggest contradictions arise from previous attempts at reconciliations. There's also a standard cosmos-shaking story in there, and it's all quite competently scripted and beautifully illustrated. But the bottom line is that if you haven't already read dozens or even hundreds of previous Avengers stories, you probably don't care. If you're looking for better work by Busiek, try Astro City. If you're looking for better Avengers, try the Kree-Skrull War, the Korvac Saga, or Ultron Unlimited. Or better yet, find the original Thanos stories from the 70s, which may not have been reprinted. Now *that*'s cosmic!
