In the aftermath of Avengers vs. X-men, Captain America has decided it's time to take a more active role in human/mutant relations. His idea is to form a team of Avengers and X-men that will work to realize Charles Xavier's dream. The team consists of Captain America, Thor, Scarlet Witch, Wolverine, Rogue and Havok as the team leader. Standing in their way is The Red Skull and his S-men. Rick Remender does a fantastic job here of making the Red Skull a truly evil and despicable villain. I won't reveal what he does, but it's pretty horrific. The Skull is now poised to be one of the best villains in the Marvel Universe. Another great thing this series does is add Scarlet Witch back into the fold. There is a lot of tension here between her and Rogue, which is understandable since the Scarlet Witch caused many problems for the mutant population by almost making them extinct. Rick Remender does a superb job here, and I'm excited to hear that he will be continuing some of the plot threads he introduced in Uncanny X-Force (which was fantastic) here in this title. On art duties, we have stellar work from John Cassady on issues 1-4, and Olivier Coipel on issue 5. I highly recommend giving this series a try if you want the best of both worlds (Avengers and X-men). The storytelling is enough to make this one of the best new titles to come out of the Marvel Now! initiative
