And so it ends. The Bendis era is over.
Unlike the story that he's telling in "New Avengers," Bendis tells a real, honest-to-goodness Avengers story in his last arc. It's not an over-the-top, everyone-but-Squirrel-Girl-(oh-wait-no-it-has-Squirrel-Girl-too) story, like the Infinity Gauntlet arc or the "H.A.M.M.E.R. War." It consists of an actual team of five (and then six) heroes, with long-standing ties to the Avengers and to each other. It doesn't involve everyone on the team just randomly hitting on the villain, but shows them displaying actual teamwork that helps them win. In other words, at long last, after eight years, Bendis finally wrote an "Avengers" story.
