Preview: Uncanny Avengers #8

The Avengers face off against a Jarnbjorn wielding Apocalypse Twins as Ragnarok comes to the Marvel Universe.

Marvel is pleased to present your first look at Uncanny Avengers #8, from the critically acclaimed creative team of writer Rick Remender and artist Daniel Acuña! As burning shards of the Peak Station plummet to earth, the Marvel Universe enters Ragnarök! Now comes retribution for Thor’s rash action in the past—the God-slaying axe, Jarnbjorn, has returned in the hands of the Apocalypse Twins! What devastation awaits in the aftermath of the Apocalypse Twins’ brutality and their assassination of a Celestial? It is a fate so shattering that the Marvel Universe will quake to its very core. Not even the Uncanny Avengers can prevent the onslaught of Ragnarök!

Rick Remender’s great run on Uncanny Avengers continues with some very cool Asgardian plot points in UA#8. He’s got a great handle on both the X-Men and the Avengres, which is pretty important for a book that effectively combines both teams. I’m just glad to see Apocalypse (in some form at least) making an impact in the Marvel U again as the big blue guy’s always been one of my favorite X-villains.

Get ready for Ragnarok, Uncanny Avengers #8 hits stands this May from Marvel Comics.
