Uncanny Avengers #6

Daniel Acuña brings his full artistic range to this 2013 Marvel NOW! chapter, while John Cassaday's cover sets an immediately arresting tone — a battered, bloodied Thor kneeling in the rain before a towering armored figure radiating an ominous chest-mounted light, fires raging in the background. The sheer scale of that hulking opponent looming over the God of Thunder makes it clear the Unity Squad is facing something genuinely formidable as "The Apocalypse Twins, Part One" gets underway. Rick Remender and Acuña's collaboration promises the kind of big-stakes storytelling that made this title one of Marvel's most ambitious team books of its era.
