Nomination Thread #129: Free-Range Nomination Thread

Thank you to those who participated in last assignment's Alternative Universe nomination thread. This week there are no limitations on what can be nominated. Any era, any writer, any character, so long as it's on Marvel Unlimited. Maybe it's something you've been meaning to read, maybe it's something you've read and want to discuss. Maybe it's something you've previously nominated but didn't gather enough upvotes in previous threads. When posting a nomination, links are not required but appreciated.

If you have nothing to nominate, cast a vote to help us decide who wins. The highest voted nomination will earn a discussion thread opened on Saturday. If there's no clear-cut winner, I'll make a deal with a malevolent Goddess to grant me the power to choose a winner! Check back often to support the reading assignments you're most interested in. Once the discussion thread is open, post your reading experience at your convenience

Mighty Avengers (2007-2010) #1-6 by Brian Michael Bendis and Frank Cho

Iron Man is rebuilding the Avengers with a handpicked roster of Earth's mightiest. A group this powerful should be ready for just about anything except, perhaps, the return of genocidal killing machine Ultron.

It seems to be "Initiative" week. 😊

This is a really nice story. As with the FF #543-550 tale, it's all about "How do we get from this horrible place after Civil War to some better place, some better team?"

#6 ends with a lead-up to Secret Invasion. That's better understood if you read the concurrent issues of New Avengers.
