>Re: Avengers membership, I think it’s also important to remember that one person’s failure is another’s success. Slott’s MA team was the only one I read at the time, whereas I don’t even consider Bendis’ New Avengers to be a legit Avengers team. (Hickman’s also hasn’t felt very Avengers-y to me, with its focus on Superma — I mean, Hyperion.) I’m really hoping the All-New, All-Different will in fact go back to some of the core Avengers, even I realize that seems largely unlikely.>

Well, of course. Different readers have different opinions. There is literally nothing that we could get an absolute consensus on.
