Avengers #3-4

   Under attack in New York by a giant celestial controlled by Loki, Cap throws his shield at some warp grenades, transporting the three of them into the sun. Once there, Loki explains to him the final host's plan for world annihilation. He whisks the three of them back towards the north pole to reveal the source of the celestial's infection - the Progenitor.


Well that doesn't look all that scary...

  Meanwhile inside Earth's core, Dr Strange and Black Panther are joined by Ghost Rider and She-Hulk. Using the flaming car, the four of them soon rendezvous with Captain Marvel and the Avengers where they plan to split up.


Let's split up again.

   She-Hulk and Thor zip away to Old Asgard where Odin tells his son about the ancient Avengers. A long long time ago, they fought one celestial and defeated it. Moreover, there's a weapon they used that might help them defeat it again - the Blood of Ymr. Problem is that Thor almost freezes to death getting it, but luckily She-Hulk is there to make out with him to warm him up.


#metoo.

   Iron Man and Dr Strange to to Greece, where apparently most of the Eternals have died fighting each other. Bur Icarus uses the last of his strength to show him the "Unimind". Whatever that is, I guess we'll find out later.


Uni-Huh?!

   Black Panther and Captain Marvel head for Alpha Flight's spacestation where she reports readings of giant insects exploding from the bodies of fallen celestials.
   The issue wraps with the team all returning to each other with their gained weapons and knowledge. But will it be enough to stop Loki and the Final Host? We'll have to wait as this issue is left to be continued.


Back in the day.

   So while this series has been renumbered once again, it's good that it retains its' Legacy numbering on the cover. Reason being is that Jason Aaron has seamlessly picked up where the stable of writers he took over from had left off. This series is once again amazing and it just keeps getting better. Awesome story telling and artwork to book, I give these two a solid 10/10.
