 The Avengers (Jonathan Hickman) (Comic Book)
comment
An extended four year Comic Book Run in the Avengers titles written by Jonathan Hickman, told in two series, Avengers, and New Avengers. Beginning in 2012 with the Marvel NOW! initiative, and ending with Secret Wars (2015) in Summer 2015, while also picking up and serving as a sequel to Hickman's run on Fantastic Four which preceded and overlapped with this.Storylines in this run that have their own pages: New Avengers: In the skies above Wakanda, another world is glimpsed which threatens to collide with the earth, a group of aliens, led by the mysterious Black Swan steps down and unleashes a device, destroying that world totally. T'Challa arrests her and summons a meeting of The Illuminati. The re-assembled illuminati are warned by the Black Swan (a strange interdimensional priestess serving the cult of Rabum Alal), about a series of incursions, of earths from different parts of the multiverse collapsing and colliding with 616-Earth. The Illuminati grapple with a series of increasingly difficult trolley problems, while dealing with their own crippling self-doubt, fears, and mutual hostility between the group, especially since Atlantis and Wakanda, the kingdoms of Namor and T'Challa, have only recently been at war. The Avengers: This book focused on the titular team expanding to adapt to ever-growing threats. Especially when confronted with the Builders, a mysterious alien race of warped morality that likes to use Earth as a petri-dish for their lab-projects at the expense of the people living there. The expanded powerful Avengers organization, after grappling with the Infinity crisis, eventually turn their attention to the Illuminati, starting a second superhero civil war. Infinity: The first major Bat Family Crossover that sees the different Avengers team battle two separate wars across the cosmos. In one, a group of Avengers led by Captain America, heads out to join an inter-galactic alliance to combat the builders, while a smaller group of Avengers on the Earth defend the planet against a renewed attack by Thanos and his Black Order who seek to make hay while the Avengers are at less than full strength. Time Runs Out: The closing Bat Family Crossover that weaves through both titles, and collected in a separate four volume TPB that arranges the issues in chronological order. This one pits Captain America's group (featured mainly in The Avengers) battling the Illuminati (featured mainly in New Avengers) as the world finally seems to be ending as the final incursion of the multiverse arrives. Secret Wars (2015): The Grand Finale of not only Hickman's run on the Avengers but a Fully Absorbed Finale of his run on the Fantastic Four, and a sequel and Homage to Marvel's first great event, Secret Wars (1984).

Maximus,who seemed to have turned over a new leaf to help Black Bolt only to wind up joining The Cabal later on.

The Worf Effect
 The Avengers (Jonathan Hickman) (Comic Book) / int_178ca149
comment
The Worf Effect: The Avengers get their asses handed to them by Ex Nihilo and Abyss when they first meet. Just so we know how badass the big bads of the series are, we see them defeat The Living Tribunal, which is something no one in Marvel comics has ever managed to do before. New Avengers also has a rare case of this happening to an object. In previous stories, the Infinity Gauntlet was the ultimate Infinity +1 Sword of the Marvel Universe, capable of handling any threat whatsoever. In here, the Gauntlet is just enough to stop one Incursion before five of the six gems break, making the Gauntlet useless against the Incursions that follow. New Avengers #24 shows an alternate universe team of X-Men who have been utterly decimated by the Cabal just to demonstrate how deadly the villains are. This world's Professor X is then humiliated and forced into begging for a quick death for both himself and his few surviving pupils.

 The Avengers (Jonathan Hickman) (Comic Book) / int_200c8312
comment
Alternate Company Equivalent: The Great Society is alternate Earth's super team that is based on the Squadron Supreme, Marvel's ACE of the Justice League of America. The Justice League equivalency becomes thematically fitting when they encounter the Illuminati. The Illuminati's Grey-and-Gray Morality is contrasted with the Great Society's black and white one: the former team considers destroying the other team's Earth to save their own as a realistic option, while the latter sees this as unthinkable. This contrast between morally ambiguous and morally clear-cut heroes is often said to be thing the main difference between the Marvel Universe and the DC Universe.

Chekhov's Gun: The fact that the Time Gem survives when its fellow Gems shatter becomes important in The Avengers. In Black Swan's origins, the Black Priests attacked her world. This is because it has an entrance to the home of Rabum Alal, which the priests are after. The hammer of Thorr. Sunspot befriending a handful of AIM agents and hiring them as his moles. He later buys out the entire organization, ousting its leader and using their resources to try and save the universe. This would later become the basis for New Avengers (2015).

Lampshade Hanging: Early on in New Avengers, Namor tells the other Illuminati to prepare themselves for "the recrimination and hand-wringing to come". He's being flippant, but he turns out to be right on the money.

Dirty Business
 The Avengers (Jonathan Hickman) (Comic Book) / int_2b9affed
comment
Dirty Business: Incursions force people to choose to destroy another Earth to spare their own. The first few are resolved for the Illuminati by others, but Black Swan repeatedly warns them that they won't be able to keep their hands clean forever. They aren't. As shown in the 'Time Runs Out' arc, after the Cabal unveil the truth of the situation to the world, the world governments pretty much let them have run of Wakanda because they are willing to do what most other heroes or villains want no part of.

comment
Even Evil Has Standards: Black Swan disapproves of the Mapmakers. Namor eventually comes to regret forming a new Cabal, as while he views the destruction of other worlds to save Earth-616 as a necessary evil, the others (especially Thanos and Terrax) take sick glee in the slaughter. Dr. Doom is less than enthusiastic about the prospect of killing millions of incarnations of the Molecule Man.

Bad Guys Do the Dirty Work: Namor embraces this to the fullest, being a former villain and eternal anti-hero, he finds it harder to get behind the "difficult choices" then his fellow heroes on the Illuminati. Namor however does confess to Dr. Doom that he doesn't like working with the Cabal, comprising of Maximus, Thanos, Black Swan and the Black Order, who are in it for the killing and destruction more than anything else.

The Man Behind the Man: Doctor Doom who plays coy about the involvement of the Illuminati with the Incursions turns out to have been a fair bit ahead of everyone the whole time. At some point he traveled across time, the Multiverse and other dimensions enough that he created a cult around him, with himself as the Dark Messiah named Rabum Alal, and then dispatches his priestesses, the Black Swans as his agents, with none of them knowing his true name and nature.

Noodle Incident
 The Avengers (Jonathan Hickman) (Comic Book) / int_3c0a4666
comment
Noodle Incident: The Great Society makes clear they've encountered an Ivory King, better known as the Beyonders, Eldritch Abomination cosmic beings living outside the Multiverse that initiated its destruction in the first place, and killed the Living Tribunal along with every other metaphysical defender of reality. That they survived an encounter with one when later on Hyperion, Thor, and Starbrand couldn't do the same, much less somehow defeated or destroyed it, is near-incomprehensible. They also managed to stop one of the incursions via a method they "don't talk about." One method is described to some extent; it involved the usage of a "Wishing Cube," formed from six planes of Forever Glass (apparently, that universe's equivalent of the Infinity Gems) During Time Runs Out, Thor and Hyperion lead a team off into the multiverse. A few issues later they reappear, having had many dramatic encounters with the Mapmakers and Black Priests, entirely offscreen.

Orphaned Etymology: The Alephs were created millions of years ago, but somehow they're still named after the first letter of Earth's Semitic languages, which obviously didn't exist when the Alephs first came around. Technically, the same applies to the Ex Nihilii, but in their case it can be handwaved that the phrase "ex nihilo" is the closest Earth equivalent to what their name means in their original language.

Renegade Splinter Faction: According to the last issue of New Avengers, The Black Swans that destroy Earths are this. In actuality, they were meant by Doom to be a band of assassins who kill Molecule Man in various worlds to prevent him from becoming a Living Weapon to destroy reality. Unfortunately, a religion's teachings are bound to be misinterpreted. And then they learned what Doom was really planning.

(Although Secret Wars (2015) mitigates this into becoming Lovecraft Lite).

Godzilla Threshold: The events of the first issue of New Avengers, being unable to save the teens with him and watching a world be destroyed, causes Black Panther to assemble the Illuminati. He has always been shown to be vehemently against the notion, so the fact he is joining and actually forming them shows how bad everything has gotten and how serious he is taking it. When the Infinity Gauntlet breaks, the Illuminati realize they must be willing to at least consider destroying entire worlds to save the rest. The lone dissenter to this is expelled. They ultimately realize they could not condemn billions to death no matter the stakes, when confronted with an alternate Galactus that was willing to do what they had spent the entire issue planning on doing and destroy the alternate Earth that would collide with theirs to save the rest of his universe. However, they did let him have his world when it was clear there was no time left to save it and later did the same with a Builder from an alternate dimension.

Then Ex Nihilo's actions cause the Builders to try and destroy Earth, meaning the Avengers are distracted trying to stop them. Then Namor reforms the Cabal. And Captain America starts chasing the Illuminati. Then the universe just starts dying.

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: The Illuminati bring the Infinity Gems out of hiding in the hope that the Infinity Gauntlet can resolve incursions without the need to destroy the other Earth. It works... once... and then breaks, but not before alerting Galactus, the Watcher, and Thanos to its presence. T'Challa's decision to hold off on destroying an alternate Earth long enough for Namor to suffer allows the Cabal to escape to Earth-1610, and right into the hands of the Maker. In as much as he's a hero, Doctor Doom's attempt to kill the Beyonders is what wipes out what little was left of the Multiverse.

What Happened to the Mouse?: Listing his assets, Roberto mentions he's gotten Validator on his side, but despite this she then vanishes from the narrative completely with nary a word. During "Time Runs Out", the Guardians of the Galaxy travel to Earth to warn them about the incoming alien armada, then promptly vanish. The answer is that they were over in the roughly concurrent Guardians 3000 doing their own thing, until the Final Incursion happens. Doctor Spectrum is tossed aside, on Marvel's earth, by Black Bolt after the Illuminati defeated the Great Society and left their world. She did not appear when they discuss what to do now, when Namor goes ahead and blows up that world, when the others react to that, or for the rest of the story up to Secret Wars. She would only show up again in Squadron Supreme (2015), after Secret Wars.

Always a Bigger Fish: Lampshaded by Sun God during his clash with the Hulk. Invoked by the Black Swan when talking about the Builders after Infinity. Compared to the Mapmakers, the Black Priests, or the Ivory Kings, the Builders are the least of the Avengers' problems.

Humiliation Conga

comment
Humiliation Conga: Nothing goes right for T'Challa. So far, he's seen the brightest young minds of Wakanda die, had to work with the man who nearly destroyed his country twice for petty revenge, seen his country invaded by nihilistic aliens, being exiled from his nation's capital city, and being banned from seeing his ancestors in whatever afterlife he ends up in due to his inaction at a critical moment which ultimately leads to Namor's exile along with Wakanda becoming the center point of the Cabal's territory due to them taking over the Illuminati base. Technically, since the start of New Avengers nothing has really gone well for any of the members of the Illuminati both in the New Avengers book and for those that appear in other books this is even before Namor forms the Cabal and Captain America remembers what happened and begins to hunt them down with the Avengers.

Anachronic Order: Hickman likes flashing forward and backward and showing events a little out of order. Part of this is that he has a huge cast and is telling a very complex and intricate tale, and to build suspense, he needs to move back and forth to give different characters their due.

Apocalypse How: Every incursion means that Class X (planetary destruction) is the least horrific thing that could happen. An incursion that goes on to its fatal result means Class X-5 (multiversal destruction) will happen, and the whole system seems to be marching with horrible inevitability toward Class Z (the end of everything).

Take a Third Option: Rather than side with Steve, who's become obssesed with taking out Tony no matter the cost or Tony, who hid the danger the world was in from everyone out of arrogance and who's team has gone to increasingly desperate lengths to stave off the incursions. Sunspot decides to choose neither, gathering what Avengers refused to stay with Steve, trying to get both sides to work together while a handful of the most powerful avengers dive into the multiverse to find out what's destroying it and take it out once and for all.

Foreshadowing: The opening monologue of Avengers mentions "The Light" (The White Event), "The War" (Infinity), and "The Fall" (Secret Wars (2015)). Some of Nightmask's first words, rendered in Builder Code, translate to "It's coming. The White Event." The Jovian's "Reason You Suck" Speech to Namor concludes by saying that he feels sorry for not only Namor, but for the "wretched end that awaits you." After the whole crisis is over, we see what the new Squandron Supreme (including the Great Society's only survivor, Dr. Spectrum) does to Namor and his beloved Atlantis as retribution for what he did to the Great Society's Earth. During the Original Sin tie-in, the heroes briefly encounter a future version of the Avengers, one of whom is an older Thor who now wields a sword instead of a hammer. He wistfully talks about having once been worthy of wielding Mjolnir, and then ominously warns his past self that he's in for some dark times:

I Did What I Had to Do: Black Swan's justification for her actions. Something of a recurring theme as most of the members of Illuminati when questioned by others who don't know their true purpose (or are just finding out) of their actions by others go on to echo.

Retcon: Prior to this run, Shang-Chi was a 'peak-condition' human superhero, like Hawkeye. Hickman then gave the man chi manipulation powers, essentially turning the Master of Kung Fu into a slightly weaker Iron Fist.

Retool
 The Avengers (Jonathan Hickman) (Comic Book) / int_b2283870
comment
Retool: New Avengers Vol 3 is completely different from the previous volumes in both tone and content, with The Illuminati being the outright protagonists when originally they were an off-shot with their one-shot and miniseries rather than the actual New Avengers team assembled by Bendis. Characters and elements from Jim Shooter and Mike Zeck's landmark Secret Wars (1984) are retooled with a Neo-Lovecraftian spin. Rather than a glam-rock fashioned strange godlike creature like the Beyonder you now have the Ivory Kings, a group of beyonders who are so far outside the known multiverse as to be incomprehensible. Dr. Doom overcoming the Beyonder at the end of the first arc is now fashioned into a more devious and cunning hoax of Rabum Alal, the Great Destroyer.

Civilians Are Irrelevant
 The Avengers (Jonathan Hickman) (Comic Book) / int_b78a50ef
comment
Civilians Are Irrelevant: The series deconstructs the idea of the "Superhero as World Police" trope. While the concept was arguably deconstructed first with the creation of The Illuminati, this run on the title took the trope as far as it can go. In the wake of multiverse-destroying "incursions" that threaten their universe, the Illuminati decide to keep the public unaware of it. What makes this special is that the Marvel Universe isn't exactly unused to an apocalypse every other week, and this isn't the first time that the heroes have been so outclassed in power that they had no idea how to stop it. For this reason, members of The Illuminati get called out by everyone who finds out about it. Blue Marvel, in particular, tells Reed Richards and Black Panther that a plurality of voices and ideas from humanity would have been the right thing to do. Black Panther seems to have listened, as The Ultimates (2015) were formed specifically to deal with problems similar to what The Illuminati faced, but with input from civilian authorities.

Instead he gets called out by his younger self for bringing the Original Five X-Men to a world that's about to be destroyed, and for becoming so morally misguided that he would be a partner in destroying an inhabited planet.

What the Hell, Hero?: Namor despite knowing exactly what they are, releases and joins some of the most evil and powerful beings in Marvel to destroy the other Earths. The Cabal do go around doing this, but they're always make sure to commit a host of atrocities on top of that, which horrifies Namor. When Namor objects, the Cabal knows he's the least powerful amongst them and they tell him where he can stick it. When he approaches his some-time ally Dr. Doom for help, Doom calls him out on this and refuses - saying that Doom is no one's 2nd choice. Tony Stark gets one Post-Inversion from Black Widow and Spider-Woman while he was being held captured by the Cabal.

Within a few months there are only a few hundred parallel universes left, most of which are then destroyed all at once. However, if there are actually infinite universes, it would take an infinity to reach that point, not months.

In truth, the only character who gets superpowers is some dork-ass loser, a completely forgettable extra present in all of the other characters' scenes. ALL of the Avengers, as it eventually transpires that the Fantastic Four and Doctor Doom were the true major players in the Incursion storyline.

Continuity Snarl
 The Avengers (Jonathan Hickman) (Comic Book) / int_df582b0b
comment
Continuity Snarl: Several examples, due to the later waves of the Marvel NOW!! initiative occurring while both of Hickman's books were still mid-storyline. The biggest one involves Steve Rogers passing the Captain America mantle to Sam Wilson after having the Super Serum drained from his body. The Original Sin tie-in arc of Avengers ended with Steve (still young and still acting as Captain America) declaring all-out war on the Illuminati and vowing to bring them to justice, indicating that all of this was happening before the changeover. However, other books would subsequently show Steve and Tony still being on good terms with one another even after Steve lost the serum, with Tony even designing some of Sam's new equipment when he officially became the new Cap.

Humans Are Special: A recurring theme of Avengers. One Ex Nihilii even asks Captain Marvel why all the important things in the universe end up on Earth.

Broken Record: Nightmask, at least at first, never stops saying "the System is broken." Bruce Banner eventually lampshades it.

Whole-Plot Reference
 The Avengers (Jonathan Hickman) (Comic Book) / int_e303d198
comment
Whole-Plot Reference: To Marvel's other big event circa 2006, Civil War. Only this time the sides are inverted: Tony and the Illuminati are on the run here; in Civil War they were in charge. Cap is the righteous moral crusader here: in Civil War he was the fugitive trying to justify his solution. None of the characters make the connection. Somewhat more epic levels of the What the Hell, Hero?, though.

Composite Character

comment
Composite Character: Composite Concept, but...The White Event in Avengers mixes examples from both the original version (purple lightning bolt headed towards Earth), and the New Universe version (the sky turning white, captions declaring "The White Event"). " There's also the Great Society's "Wishing Cube," a reality warping cube shaped artifact, like the Cosmic Cube, assembled from six colored planes, similar to the Infinity Gauntlet.

Expy
 The Avengers (Jonathan Hickman) (Comic Book) / int_e5421161
comment
Expy: The Great Society is clearly the Justice League. Sun God in particular is very much presented as being Superman, from his iconography to his powers to his morals, with some additional shades of Hyperion...who is himself Marvel's biggest Superman Expy and is present throughout the rest of the run. Sun God even has a degree of Ho Yay with the Batman analogue The Rider, whose real name is Wayne. It's not subtle. The rest of the team consists of Boundless, a female Flash expy, the Jovian, a Martian Manhunter expy (only from presumably Jupiter), The Norn (an expy of Doctor Fate, with a mix of Tim Hunter and Billy Batson), and a female Dr. Spectrum, who is a Green Lantern expy.

The Team

comment
The Team: The Illuminati The Leader: Black Panther, who assembles the Illuminati. The Lancer: Tony Stark, who is pretty much Second in Command, and Namor who serves as T'Challa's Foil due to their mutual hate. The Big Guy: Black Bolt, Namor and Hulk. The Smart Guy: All the scientists (Black Panther, Reed, Tony and Beast) and Doctor Strange, who is the lone representative of the mystic perspective. Token Evil Teammate: Namor, who doesn't regret his crimes against Wakanda one bit, is only in it to save his own race and is the most cynical of all the members. Not to mention he almost finds joy in finding ways to be a complete dick to everyone else. Maximus is a straighter example of this, being a literal madman. The Heart: Captain America, who strictly refuses to even consider blowing up other Earths and calls the others out on that. This is what gets him kicked out. Sixth Ranger: Bruce Banner after putting all the pieces together. Time Runs Out adds Captain Britain, Hank Pym and Amadeus Cho.

Expendable Alternate Universe
 The Avengers (Jonathan Hickman) (Comic Book) / int_f31926c2
comment
Expendable Alternate Universe: The heroes really don't want to play it straight, since they're aware that, even if the other world isn't theirs, it still means murdering every single person on it. A few issues actually have the Illuminati watching different alternate worlds meet their end at the hands of nearly invincible threats they themselves have been fortunate to not yet challenge directly yet. Played straight when Namor finally destroys the Great Society's planet. And even straighter when he reforms the Cabal, who go on a rampage.
