Series: Mighty Avengers (2013)

Summary

This is Mighty Avengers (2013) #12, a tie-in to the Original Sin event, with the story cutting between 1972 and the present day. On election night in 1972, under a moonless sky, something unspeakable approaches Manhattan, and the only thing that can stop it is a 'first generation' of Mighty Avengers never fully told in canon: Jim Lucas, Luke Cage's father, Blade, Blue Marvel, Kaluu, and others. Their enemy is an ancient being called the Deathwalkers, and this encounter explains why Jim chose to distance himself from his family out of fear and helplessness. In the present, Luke Cage finally confronts the father who was absent for years and hears the whole story; meanwhile, the Deathwalkers reappear, Molina and Kaluu explain their origins and their plan to destroy the world, and the old and new generations of Mighty Avengers are pushed toward the same confrontation. This is issue #12 of the series, a single issue that leads into the next issue's head-on battle.

Editor's review

《神威复仇者》2013年系列是漫威在《无限》事件期间推出的“地面线”复仇者，主角不再是宇宙间征战的精英，而是留守地球的卢克·凯奇、光谱、白虎、神力侠等角色，气质更街头、更家庭化。第12期是整部连载中情感浓度最高的一期：它用一个1972年的“前史”把卢克·凯奇与父亲之间长达数十年的疏离一次性讲透，让超级英雄叙事落回到父子、恐惧与原谅这些最朴素的主题上。艾尔·尤因擅长让每个成员都有高光时刻，刀锋战士、蓝奇与卡鲁的联手作战场面在格雷格·兰德的笔下节奏明快。对关注漫威70年代复古设定、以及想看“英雄也会害怕”的读者来说，这一册是理解本卷“家庭联结”主题的关键章节。

Who it's for

A good fit for

追《神威复仇者》2013系列、想补齐《原罪》联动章节的读者
喜欢卢克·凯奇、刀锋战士、蓝奇等街头与冷门英雄的漫威粉丝
偏爱时间线闪回、老派复古漫画质感与父子情感戏的读者
研究漫威2013—2014年复仇者系谱与事件联动的漫画爱好者

Not a good fit for

希望一册读完一个完整独立故事的读者，本期是连续剧情的一环
只想看钢铁侠、雷神等一线复仇者大场面的读者，本卷主角阵容相对小众

Reading tips

先读本卷第1—5期了解新队成立背景，再读第7—11期，衔接本期《原罪》联动。
留意1972年闪回与当代两条线的对应关系，父子两代“无力感”的呼应正是本册核心。
读完本期后接着读第13—14期，死亡行者的对峙在后续收束。
若对初代神威复仇者成员陌生，可先补蓝奇、卡鲁与刀锋战士的基本设定。

FAQ

“神威复仇者”指的是哪一部漫威连载？

中文语境里“神威复仇者”对应 Mighty Avengers。2013年由艾尔·尤因编剧、格雷格·兰德等绘制的重启系列，以卢克·凯奇领队，共约15期，与早期皮姆博士领队的强大复仇者并非同一团队。

第12期是独立故事吗？

不是。本期是《原罪》（Original Sin）大事件的联动章节，承接第11期并引向第13—14期的对决，单独阅读会缺少前后因果。

本期为什么会出现1972年的复仇者？

这是编剧设置的“前史”闪回，讲述卢克·凯奇父亲吉姆·卢卡斯与刀锋战士、蓝奇等人组成初代神威复仇者、对抗死亡行者的往事，用来解释父子失和的缘由。

这一册有中文正式出版版本吗？

目前可核实的中文版本多为民间汉化与在线阅读，未见权威书目记录的正式简体中文单行本出版信息，购买前建议核对ISBN与出版方。
