![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Personally, I think this is the better move. There’d been some debate over the proper reading order for this first chapter - does it work better in chronological order, as the events of New Avengers #1-3 took place before those of Avengers #1-3? Or does it work better thematically to show what seems like a triumph before revealing the truth behind it? This complete collection takes the strong stance of placing Avengers #1-3 before New Avengers #1-3, settling the debate. However, the first portion of this run is interesting - Avengers tells the story of the gathering of the Avengers, the day that the team grew and called upon all its members to assemble, while New Avengers depicted the true motivations of this gathering. These books would remain separate until the final act of the run, when they alternated every issue in what was essentially a months-long crossover called Time Runs Out. Hickman’s Avengers run was split into two main ongoings: Avengers and New Avengers. Listen to the latest episode of our weekly comics podcast! ![]()
