Top five Roger Stern Avengers storylines

On this team blog, Topfive Reviews, I found an item with just what I enjoyed seeing: the best five Avengers storylines written by Roger Stern.

It's interesting though, that this could explain why in the end, Stern left writing such books for a time: because fans didn't want to see Magneto turn back into a literally evil mode, so as a result, the last part of Avengers Vs. X-Men was rewritten by Tom DeFalco and Jim Shooter. It's true that even I'm one of those who'd rather Magneto not go that route either, but even so, it's a shame that Stern may have taken things that far as to leave the Avengers.

Labels: , ,

And one of the things I give Stern credit for is that he wrote one of the best characterizations for Janet Van Dyne, making her into much more of her own character than a lot of other writers did back then. The most respectable characterization, possibly next to Kurt Busiek's.

Thanks for your nice article. I am empress. Your’s story are so nice. I am happy and waiting for more news publish in the site about quad.

Should've killed off both Magneto and Prof. X at the end of Onslaught, would've made a more effective and lasting ending.
