Marvel Comics and Avengers #48 Spoilers and Review follows.

Winter Hulk’s Lethal Silence Targets Icon!

Plus Who’s In Red Widow’s Crosshairs?

We open with a creators credits and storyline catch-up page.

Then we meet the Winter Hulk…

…the Avengers’ She-Hulk having been “turned” by…

…Russia’s Red Room program (think Black Widow, White Widow and Red Widow) with the help of vampires?!

As a bit of an aside, the new host of the Phoenix, Avengers’ Echo, is getting the cold should from Thor who the OG host of the Phoenix claimed to be his mother?!

The book ends with Gorilla-Man and Winter Hulk…

…at sea with bloody consequences as…

…there appears to be more to the Winter Hulk than first expected!

The Red Widow makes her move in the melee…

…leaving Gorilla-Man to attempt to help the Winter Hulk!

The Pulse:

Convoluted, but fun. Decent art. Intrigued by the journey to Avengers #50 which also doubles as Avengers #750 legacy issue. 7 out of 10.
