	Post-Hypnotic Suggestion? ... Yea, I'm not buying it.

	Red Guardian's change of heart isn't particulary good idea. And making him long forgotten Black Widow's husband was unnecessary since nothing was really made of it except for short mix of contradicting thouths in Hawkeye's mind. But he had them without Red Guardian so maybe it's his natural state. But the development of Avengers as a group is well handed and I hope that we'll see more of Black Widow soon.

	I don't really like Cap's solo stuff, but he does make a good character for the Avengers comics.

	I don't like it when to much gizmo's come from out of nowhere just to be destroyed on the next panel, but one must agree that commies are much better characterized now than before.
