Summary

This volume is issue #7 of Marvel's Uncanny Avengers Vol. 3 (2015–2018), originally titled "The Hills are Alive... with the Sound of Gunfire," and part of the tie-in chapters for the Avengers Standoff event. The story takes place in the Marvel Universe of the "All-New, All-Different" era: S.H.I.E.L.D. uses the power of a Cosmic Cube to create a seemingly peaceful town called Pleasant Hill and settles brainwashed super-criminals there, but the "experiment" quickly spirals out of control. In issue #7, the Uncanny Avengers lend S.H.I.E.L.D. a hand during a manhunt, but as the mysteries of Pleasant Hill gradually unfold, they make a shocking discovery about the identity of one of their teammates; the person believed to be a comrade reveals their true face, and the clues all point to the secret hidden in that town. As the seventh volume of the series, this book must be understood within the overall reading order of Avengers Standoff: the clues of the same event are scattered across Avengers, New Avengers, Captain America: Sam Wilson, and other titles, and this volume is only one link. It suits readers following the event who want to complete the puzzle; read on its own, it is more of a suspenseful "middle chapter."

Editor's review

这一册的分量不在“完整”,而在“关键”。作为《危境僵局》的联动刊,《非凡复仇者》第7期承担了把主线谜团推向爆点的任务:追捕行动陡然变成信任危机,队友身份的反转让人措手不及,也让读者意识到“欢丘”远不只是个软禁反派的小镇。格里·达根的叙事节奏紧凑,对白里不乏冷幽默,瑞安·斯特格曼的画面则以干净有力的动作线条见长。对正在补“全新全异”时期漫威大事件的读者来说,这一期是理解后续《美国队长:史蒂夫·罗杰斯》走向的必要一环;而对只想随手翻翻的人,它更像一块拼图——单块好看,但离开整幅图就少了味道。建议按事件阅读顺序翻看,收获会明显更多。

Reading tips

  1. 先了解《危境僵局》事件背景与整体阅读顺序,再读本册,理解成本会更低。
  2. 阅读时留意队内人物对话中的细节伏笔,它们往往指向后续的信任危机。
  3. 若对剧情走向困惑,可对照《复仇者》《美国队长》同事件刊物交叉阅读。

FAQ

这一册能单独读懂吗? 可以读,但会缺上下文。本册是《危境僵局》大事件的联动篇章,剧情与《复仇者》《新复仇者》等刊物交叉推进,单独阅读容易对人物处境和反转感到突兀。
“危境僵局”讲的是什么? 它是漫威“全新全异”时期的首个大事件:神盾局用宇宙立方的力量造出小镇“欢丘”,将洗脑后的超级罪犯安置其中,结果实验失控,多支复仇者队伍被卷入,并引出重要角色命运的变化。
第7册是系列里的哪一期? 对应《非凡复仇者》第三卷第7期,2016年3月发行,原题为《The Hills are Alive... with the Sound of Gunfire》,是《危境僵局》的联动刊。
