The Day Gravity Went Wild

Avengers Unplugged #2

Bad story.

Graviton.

It's a weak story with a boring technobabble conclusion. The Avengers seem slapdash and unprofessional in their approach to the threat. Deathcry is the focus, and her scenes are mostly trying to be comedic.

There are also several mistakes where dialogue balloons are pointing to random background characters.

Unchain My Heart

Avengers Unplugged #1

Good story.

Nefarius tries to kill Moonstone in the Vault.

This is a good idea for a story and--except for the very sketchy art--the execution is strong. It follows events in CAPTAIN AMERICA 443 and finds an escaped villain from that comic being returned to prison. Turns out, that was his plan all along.

It's also worth noting that his attack on Moonstone is genuinely vicious. He don't just want to kill her, he wants her to suffer!

Moonstone is one of my favourite Marvel characters. I like the way she's written here.

Natasha: Look, I'm sure the other Avengers would lecture us until they were blue in the face if they knew we were here at Bimboyz— New York's only male go-go pizza parlor… but being an Avenger is tough work! And you deserve a night off from mothering little Luna— and me from monitor duty! Crystal: It's funny, though, 'Tasha— I don't see anyone eating pizza…!

Crystal: You forget that I can manipulate all forms of elemental matter! So when you go out on the town with Crystal the Inhuman— you're never under-dressed! Natasha: I believe the American teens would say, "you go girl"!

I love the nineties.
