A new threat that emerged in volume 1 is on the rise, and it spells certain doom for the entire Planet Earth. Can the Avengers, with its new, bigger roster, save the day?
This volume starts in a distant part of the universe(s) in a place called the Superflow. It's quite confusing to begin with, but if I've called it correctly, it's kind of a central monitoring station/hub for all the multiple universes. We were introduced to the Builders in Volume 1 - well this place is connected to them somehow, probably kind of like 'Head Office' of the Builders. Maybe, I'm just speculating at the moment.
Anyway, the Superflow is alerted to the fact that many universes are dying, but we discover that Universe 616 (containing our favourite Marvel superheroes of Earth 616) is also going critical. So they initiate what is known as a White Event.
Cut to Avengers Tower, and Earth's Mightiest Heroes are learning about Nightmask, or Adam, who was birthed in volume 1 by Ex Nihlo, a Builder. He and Captain Universe are explaining the meaning of Life, the Universe and Everything when they are alerted to an incident that has occurred in a nearby college campus. There's a blast radius of 1 mile and over 3000 people are dead.
Racing to the scene, they find a skinny naked youth at ground zero who doesn't have any clue what's going on. His name is Kevin, and he's the most powerful being on the planet, and subsequently smacks the Hulk into orbit and isn't phased when Thor gives him his best wallop with Mjolnir.
Kevin, we learn, is a Starbrand. Each planet has its own Starbrand, created by a White Event - an intervention of sorts (I think) by the Superflow when universes are dying.
Collects Avengers issues #7-11
Spoiler-free review: This was another great Hickman book, almost as good as the first volume, if not for the final two issues which were just OK. Hopefully they are setting up future stories. The first three issues in this collection were really strong, but I’m not sure that the White Event story was resolved within this book.
Spoiler-filled review:
Issue Seven: This issue opens with confusing dialogue about a Caretaker, and some Builders, and an artificial intelligence, and a Superflow of multiple universes. It is definitely Multiverse talk, because we see that Universe 616 is singled out as one of the universes being affected by the failure of the Caretaker and the collapse of the Superflow. The crazy thing about the White Event, that happens after this collapse, is that it looks just like the white wall of antimatter seen in "Crisis on Infinite Earths." “A white event occurs when a world is on the verge of ascending on a universal scale. A white event creates/alters heralds to shepherd this ascension, and a Nightmask always acts as forerunner of the change.” – Nightmask
Starbrand, a character original from the New Universe, makes his Marvel 616 debut in this issue.
Issue Eight: The Starbrand is a person, and a weapon. It is a defense system of planetary scale designed to protect a people as they progress through a change period, becoming a more advanced society. Nightmask is a lot of help, as Kevin is transitioning into his Starbrand role, and we even learn that Nightmask’s first name is Adam. Both Nightmask and Starbrand are avatars put on Earth as preparation for what is to come. Starbrand is super powerful, and put up an awesome fight against the likes of Thor, Hulk, and Hyperion.
