Well, the cover says correctly that this has ties to Secret Wars 2 but more importantly this issue while one full book length reads as if there are two stories and the first is the end of the fight against Nebula when Skrulls and Avengers combined. In short, this issue deals with the fallout ... and we see that Starfox, as he is the brother of mad Thanos, decides to say farewell to the Avengers ... as he needs to seek out Nebula to determine if she is who she says she is (granddaughter of Thanos) and to stop her since they are then family
And joining him is guest star Firelord who still have problems being on the side of Skrulls. In addition, for those unfamiliar with Nebula or Starlord, apparently she has decimated his people in the recent past and thus he too seeks justice
With that, the remainder of the team heads for home ...
And that's when they encounter the Beyonder in his guise as a superhero wearing some funky armor costume. He desires experience at this stage and meets up with each team or rather duo or sub team of the Avengers separately only to find out that they while limited in their abilities when compared to him can still put him out of action rather fast if he doesn't use his unlimited power ... example Wasp stings him to catch his attention and giving Captain America the time to catch up and with a swipe of his shield brought the Beyonder tumbling to the ground ...
At the end of it all, Jan aka the Wasp took a huge risk by offering the Beyonder a place with the Avengers! WOW! I mean, the guy has everything powers. So for every challenge, he can more than overcome the villain du jour and basically all the Avengers need do is tell him the problem and what they want him to do (so he doesn't make a mistake in his godly type of interpretation of our more humanly events) and he can accomplish it. Nothing is beyond him. Damn!
Ratings: 5/10 (pretty ho hum issue sorry!)
