New Avengers 11

The Review:
Bendis·Finch·Miki·D'Armata
Steve Rogers (Captain America) meets up with Murdock (Dare Devil) in Central Park, NY to discuss about Harada (Siver Samurai) leading the Yashida Clan in the Japanese Underworld while still trying to convince Murdock to join the Avengers. Murdock declines the offer and recommends Ronin. Later, Rogers meets with Ronin and gives him his first assignment. Ronin infiltrates Yoshida Fortress observes the Silver Samurai (Kenuichio Harada) and the Hand along with the Viper, Hydra agents and Ninja Assasins. Unfortunately Ronin is discovered and escapes back to Stark’s Penthouse to warn the other Avengers only to be trailed by the Ninjas. Spider-Woman discovers Ronin climbing up to the Penthouse badly wounded and reacts, “Oh my God! Are you okay?” Soon after ninja stars and arrows come flying behind him. The Avengers find themselve under attack by a band of Ninja Assasins.

Storyline/Illustration: What I'm begining to see is how Bendis uses the dialog for his narratives as appose to the old school "Meanwhile, back at the ranch..." narratives. And of course the great visual art work gives its own narratives as well. Finch, Miki and D'Armata great work again.
