YES! I love Avengers Assemble! I'm glad you liked it. It captures the mood from the movie in a great way, it's funny, and SO MANY BAMF LADIES. DeConnick remains my favorite Marvel writer.
Am I supposed to sort of ship Hulk/Jess? Because I do.
That was such a nice surprise when I first read AA. It makes sense that Jessica has a lot of sympathy for the Hulk since she was an experiment too.
That is EXACTLY the Natasha Romanov I am interested in - owning her life, her choices, and balancing her ledger as best she can.
YES. It's only two issues, but it's just so great. I love how instead of killing the lizard girl (past!Natasha would have, I think), Natasha just freaking dragged her back to civilization and let her detox, then brought her back to her mother. The whole arc was about making amends and everything that happened reflects that (I'd also almost say there's some symbolism in Natasha turning into a monster and then recovering from it after a long, painful process).
Sidenote: I love how it avoids a true love triangle trope by the fact that Natasha clearly gives zero fucks.
