E33: Avengers & X-Men: Axis #8 | All-New Captain America #2 Reviews [Devil Comics Entertainment]


Avengers & X-Men: Axis #8 begins as Spider-Man attempts to stop the Gene Bomb however Carnage arrives and saves the city. Both the Avengers and X-Men battle it out until Steve Rogers decides its time to get the Red Skull. Superior Iron Man and new Captain America attempt to stop him leading to a final issue of the Marvel series next week. The last two issues were mostly heroes against heroes slugfist with very little story as we approach the conclusion. Very little seems to be desired in the last issue as that story paves the way for a new Uncanny Avengers series in January. 

The second issue of Captain America opens with both Sam Wilson and Nomad taking on Hydra while protecting a boy. The boy is working with Hydra and betrays Captain America who then goes up against Crossbones. Misty Knight assists Sam with Crossbones. She reveals Hydra has infiltrated every team from the Avengers to the X-Men. Meanwhile Nomad is captured by Zemo who quickly disposes him and sends the pictures to Steve Rogers.
