New Avengers: Ultron Forever #1

Part two of the three-part "Ultron Forever" crossover event, this 2015 Marvel one-shot assembles a striking diagonal-panel cover by Alan Davis and Mark Farmer that practically bursts with heroic energy. Thor (hammer crackling with lightning), a cloaked figure, Iron Man firing his repulsors, a female hero in blue, a Captain America wielding the iconic shield, and an explosive burst of light in the background all compete for your attention across the dynamic composition. Writer Al Ewing and artist Davis make a compelling team, and this middle chapter of the trilogy promises the kind of sprawling, era-spanning Avengers action the cover so confidently advertises.
