AvX: Cyclops Attacks

~Avengers vs. X-Men #1 (2012)

Well, in case you were taking your superhero cape out to the cleaners, Avengers vs. X-Men #1 released on April 4, 2012. The issue took off right away; there was no shortage of pace and action.

Some of this information is spoiler material: The entire event, which has been culminating from Marvel Point One #1 (2011) is the return of The Phoenix Force to earth; once again, it is heading for a host. This time, it will find its mark in Hope Summers, the mutant messiah.

The teams will break into two schools of thought:

1. The Avengers, who believe they are defending the world from an extinction-level event, and
2. The X-Men, who think that the Phoenix' return may save the mutant race from extinction.

In Avengers vs. X-Men #1, Captain America made his way to the mutant-controlled island of Utopia to have words with their leader Cyclops. Needless to say from the picture, talks didn't go well. Cyclops has struck the first blow in this 2012 Marvel Event. And now, it's time for battle...

Avengers vs. X-Men is a Marvel Comics event. A Reading Order, Checklist, and summary of the issues are being post on The Avengers vs. X-Men page sponsored by The Superheroes List. If you're interested in following the action, check it out.
