I may have squee'd a lot while reading this one. The colors popped and we got to see so many characters from the Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy. The main reason why I gave this just four stars though is that there seemed to be four separate incidents going on during this comic issue. And then we seemed to be popping in and out of the story to jump to the next one. I am assuming the next issue will explain things more. But I am not really happy with the comics I have read so far that seemed to not be laying things out more. I am so missing Hellcat right now.

I loved the artwork.

Went Well.

Clubbing all the Avengers alliance for fighting every sort of villian cast well. Stark and Captain still are the top most heroes. Hail!!

I'm not familiar with reading comic books, and might have enjoyed this one more if I were more familiar with how they're supposed to flow. I was impressed with the 'dynamic' ebook way of scrolling between frames, so I'll probably give a few more of these a try and see if they grow on me.

My review - This is the first Marvel comic book I read so I don’t have much idea if all the Marvel comics are same or is it just the one. The illustrations and art are pretty good and colorful. The book is divided into 4 chapters where the battle is going on 4 battlefronts. But the story seems a bit Scattered to me that 4 (Action Scenes) are going simultaneously where the fight is occurring at 4 front lead by different groups of Avenger Alliances. What confused me a bit is the overlapping story. Not actually confused but I didn't get the detailed fight scenes from all parts. The story seemed a bit missing from between. But I really enjoyed reading this comic book.

Conclusion - Great but felt incomplete Plot with Beautiful Illustrations.

its action packed and all the favorite superheroes are there... its just a bit too much of a trouble got together, i mean we get hydra and the chitauri and Nebula together in one breath.

Hey, Phil Coulson is still alive! I only know the movies, I have barely scratched the surface of Marvel comics, so this is all new to me.

I liked the artwork a lot. The story is a little hyperactive. Let‘s just squeeze every Marvel hero in there that exists. Plus throw in the next generation.

Shallow plot, a lot of Bang! It‘s ok, 3.5-4 stars.

For free from comiXology.

I enjoyed seeing this comic with the Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy fighting the Black Order. Also enjoyed seeing Ms. Marvel, Nova, and Squirrel Girl. Glad SHIELD was there too. Hope they'll be able to stop Hydra. Want to see more Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy team ups.

This comic reminded me of Avengers Infinity War and Avengers Endgame.

A fun read, just now need to find the 2nd issue (digital wise). Cashing in on the Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy. But still a fun team-up read with a few new characters I was not hip to before. This issue was free, but I would pay a few $$ to finish the storyline.

I am so glad that Amazon is giving this comics free for kindle as it was nice to enjoy this amazing art

[Aegelis · Rating 2 out of 5]

So the artwork and colours are good...

With great art should also come great story. We have a sort of star studded cast of supers and stuff happening that may qualify as action, but not of depth, character, cohesion, or reason to take interest except that yet again Earth is threatened. Full pass on this forgettable pulp with this kind of start.

You have Gamora and Black Widow in the comic but they don't say a thing? Look, Ms Marvel is great but Marvel should have done much better by their older characters as well. What they did to several female characters as well as the underuse of established women in this comic is just wrong.

This was a good intro to Guardians of the Galaxy. I loved the appearance of Kamala!

Ich gebe zu, ich habe hier nur wegen Squirrel Girl reingeschaut *w00t*!

I have been a marvel fan way before the MCU came into existence but this however is the first comic book I've ever read. Sure, I've owned comics before but I never actually read them, I only bought them for the pictures.
I liked the plot, made me remember the old days (which was 2 years ago), a bit more of cocky Nova would've made me more happier but all things considered I liked it. However I still prefer the cartoons more and will not continue with the comics, they will always be a rare read for me.

Great!

Good art work and concept! Wonderful story and color choice of the pictures! Wanna see the all of these stories in the MCU as well!

[Tayvian Augustin · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was amazing!!!!!!!

I chose five stars because it has the perfect amount of action and drama and that's what makes this book so great.

[Kathleen · Rating 3 out of 5]

First Marvel comic I've read! I really did enjoy it and I really want to pick up the second volume, I was disappointed when I reached the end because I wanted more !

[Carl Harris · Rating 3 out of 5]

It was a free download from Kindle. Ok book, lots of characters, print was kind of small though. The cliffhanger at the end ticked me off because I'm sure I'll have to pay for the next one.

[The Bibliophile Doctor · Rating 5 out of 5]

Awesome

Awesome awesome and just awesome... So many superheroes I didn't even know about. Well never heard of them. I feel like I'm growing backwards now !!!

For a child

Child fond of Spiderman. He is crazy about Spiderman. And loves almost every about Spiderman and the Avengers. He liked this

[Emily · Rating 4 out of 5]

Hmm. I kind of liked it.

The art was beautiful and clear, the writing was good, all these different characters were fun, but the story as a whole seemed like it was lacking something.

I'm not exactly sure what this game is supposed to be; I'll have to do some more research on it. Is this based off the game? And is this a Marvel game or a Disney MCU game?

Overall a solid four stars. Not my favorite comic, but not the worst. I really need to do some research on this game.

Hydra ki Jay- Steve Evans

Book Name- Marvel Avengers Alliance (2016)
Author- Fabian Nicieza

'All agents we look forward to the fight to Hydra.'
A comic story of every youngster favourite heroes Avengers and when they all come together there is this what we called as Diwali in India. Nothing more to say just that Black Order is Thanos of this story and he'd be caught sooner by our Avengers team. I am looking forward to reading more of this.

[Linda · Rating 4 out of 5]

A crossover! Hooah!

I liked it. I liked seeing all those heroes fighting together. It was good to see a book with some of the lesser used heroes. I liked seeing Hydra thrown into the mix. Now I need to read the next part. The art was good. I think everyone was drawn well with lots of definition. All in all, a good job. Recommended!

[Rachael C Marek · Rating 3 out of 5]

There's potential in this story, but it's scattered and jam packed; there are so many heroes and every villain from the MCU and then some. There's just too much going on in too short a time. The artwork is vivid but some of the drawings, especially of Coulson are strange.

And why aren't all characters given an opportunity to speak? I don't think Black Widow uttered a word in four comics.
