I've been looking forward to this one. Avengers #100, with the gorgeous Barry Windsor Smith art.

Avengers #101, with the Harlan Ellison Avengers story.

The Avengers/Defenders war.

Hawkeye gaining (and losing) the *ahem* "skirt" costume.

And, oh yes, the heating up of the Vision/Scarlet Witch romance.

...

Funny that something Steve Englehart used as a symbol of true love conquering overwhelming prejudice is now used as one of the "clues" by modern writers that the Scarlet Witch was "always" insane.

Still, mostly good stuff in this volume.
