    MARVEL ADVENTURES: THE AVENGERS #28
    Written by Jeff Parker & Paul Tobin; penciled by Ig Guara & Mateo Lolli;cover by Sean Murphy & Guru eFX
    It’s just a cat, right? I mean, the Avengers should be able to rescue a cat from a tree, right? Unfortunately, when both cat and tree are in an overlapping universe, giving them a very ghostly, and very intangible presence, that does make it a puzzler. And it’s doubly hard for the Avengers when their efforts attract a deadly interdimensional monster! Plus, the somewhat scintillating menace of…Hammerhead!

Welcome to the ‘no-frills’ edition of Marvel Noise. After the host says “hello”, we get Bring ’em Back, the Mighty Marvel Movie Minute, a gem from the Comic Book Bunker rises to the surface, Marvel Unbound, and pirated edition of Marvel Tales.

I want to thank everyone for sending in contributions. It’s been a rough and tough summer and Dave, Mike, Adam, Steve, Pat, Carlos, and Chris have been great friends and the show would not be the same without ’em.

Providing the universe isn’t plotting against me, next week should be somewhat of a ‘normal’ show, if there ever was one.

And our host pops up once or twice.

ETERNALS BY NEIL GAIMAN
COVER BY: JOHN ROMITA JR.
WRITER: NEIL GAIMAN
PENCILS: JOHN ROMITA JR.
“An intriguing plot and amazing visuals…one of the most entertaining and exciting Marvel titles I’ve had the pleasure to read in a long while.” – Kelvin Green, SilverBulletComicBooks.com More than thirty-five years ago, comics legend Jack “The King” Kirby returned to the House of Ideas with perhaps his biggest idea of all: the universe of the Eternals! Their creation was the result of Kirby’s ceaseless curiosity about the origin of man and his mythologies – but like many of the King’s concepts, it was definitely ahead of its time. Flash forward to 2006: Superstar creators Neil Gaiman and John Romita Jr. have boldly taken on these concepts with a loving hand, in the process telling a fresh and crackling fun yarn full of mystery, suspense and majestic power – all with an eye on helping establish Kirby’s creations as a vital part of the Marvel Universe once and for all. Against the backdrop of Marvel’s CIVIL WAR, the Eternals are being awoken one by one from a strange, waking dream, at once coming to terms with the fact that they are far more than the normal people they have thought themselves to be. They find there is little time to commiserate about such things, however, as they are thrust into a life and death struggle that spans both time and space! Collecting ETERNALS #1-7.

DAMAGE CONTROL, the roughest, toughest dilapidated dirt dogs this side’a the universe. If anyone can clean up the aftereffects of World War Hulk, they can. But while they’re picking up the pieces, they find that the war…may not be over. Collecting WORLD WAR HULK: AFTERSMASH and WWH AFTERSMASH: DAMAGE CONTROL #1-3.

His former flame, believed dead, is being manipulated by one of his deadliest enemies. Even to his strongest allies, Stark appears to be descending into a mental breakdown while everything around him swirls out of control. Now, with the lives of millions hanging in the balance, Iron Man must fight his way out of the darkness and prevent the Mandarin from releasing a plague that would change humanity as we know it! Plus: S.H.I.E.L.D. has a problem, and her name is Madame Hydra.

We’re short and sweet this week. Okay, the sweet may be my exaggeration, but this is a shorter episode than you’re used to. Because Backwards Dave was kind enough to send in a Bring ’em Back and Carlos called in with comments on New Avengers #40, you are rewarded with my ramblings for a few minutes. Somehow, that doesn’t seem fair…

Comics mentioned this week include Invincible Iron Man, X-Factor: The Quick and the Dead, Young X-Men, Iron Man: Viva Las Vegas, Avengers/Invaders, Logan, Mighty Avengers, and Secret Invasion.

He’s back and better than ever – the hero that wouldn’t die, Captain Marvel!

With the stage set and the players from unearthly entity Eon to Drax the Destroyer and the mighty Avengers pulled into fray, the good Captain led the fight against Thanos and his Cosmic Cube in a confrontation that would redefine super-hero epics forever! Featuring an introduction by Jim Starlin and an extensive selection of bonuses, this Marvel Masterworks volume is the definitive collection of the creative arc that defined Captain Marvel!
