Avengers


The graphic novel Avengers Disassembled by Brian Michael Bendis and David Finch compiles Avengers issue 500 to 503 and Avengers Finale. It chronicles the series of events leading to the break-up of Marvel's supergroup, as well as reprints some key episodes in the Avengers' saga. The artwork is superb but the story is quite lame. It appears that Marvel was trying to come up with an earth-shattering event to sensationalize the comic's 500th but it turned out to be so confusing and implausible (in a comic sense). The hardbound edition is only really worth it for the art and drawings at the end of the book.

...Bestsellers is a new bookstore at Robinson's Galleria. It reminds me of Power Books in terms of the layout, except this store has a very organized magazine rack. The store is not yet really finished though.
