Scott's Take: The Avengers Vol 2: Twilight Dreaming by Jed Mackay

The Avengers Vol 2: Twilight Dreaming by Jed Mackay is another action-packed volume. The Avengers, besides Vision (an android that does not sleep and therefore does not dream) are sucked into a nightmare. While the Vision’s teammates are trying to escape the nightmare, he has to face Myrddin and his Twilight Court. The Twilight Court and Myrddin are the same people who tried to kill Kang in Volume One. They are here to do it again.  The final issue of this volume in a separate story of one issue features Jarvis the butler coming by to teach the Impossible City how to cook. Of course, things do not go smoothly.

 

This is another great volume featuring incredible art especially in the nightmare parts. The Twilight Court are good foils to the Avengers team. Each Avenger gets a good moment and plenty of the action for themselves. Jed Mackay and company continue to make sure no one is left out.

 

The third volume is titled Blood Hunt and collects the Fall of X tie ins and the Blood Hunt tie ins. This is expected to come out in December of this year. In the first part of that read, the Avengers team up with The X-men to take down ORCHIS --the fascists who are trying to kill all mutants. The Avengers are finally ready to make their move. Iron Man and Black Panther have been cooking up something special for them. The second half will see Captain America (Steve Rogers) creating a new team to counter the vampire invasion. Since Captain America has fought vampires for a long time, all the way back during WW2 as he fought Nazi Vampires, Captain Marvel taps him to create a resistance to the invasion.
