Avengers Invaders #2 (OF 12)

I'm not sure why everyone is so down on this book. The extra-textual implications of bring in a Captain America who would honestly, mistakenly, call Tony Stark a "fascist" just kills me. This book doesn't carry the same lofty tone as "Justice", the last project directed by Ross, which I don't necessarily count against but I can't help but wonder if people would be more
on board with this if it did.

People seem to be annoyed with the the play on Tony's guilt. I thought they hammered it in that first scene and left it implicit throughout the rest of the issue, I didn't think it was overplayed. It is twelve issue and where still seeing people introduced to the concept of the Invader's showing up. Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing how this plays of via Bucky and Cap, and Bucky and Bucky! (I like their cheesy little jibes too, Bucky would give his ARM for Cap, eh?)

I am not critical about art most of the time. I don't fancy myself to have an informed opinion about it, but I don't try to hold any arbitrary expectations about it either. Either way, the art isn't that impressive, but it gets you through the story.
