Never change Rockslide, you god-damn hero.
"Korg just saved me!"
"Korg? No, that was the Thing!"
"Thing? You're both crazy, that was It, the Living Colossus!"
"No no, it was Gorgolla, the Living Gargoyle!"
"I thought it was the Grey Gargoyle."
Etc.

Touché.
Okay, I'm in.
That is all kinds of great. RS is adorable, and that last panel sold me.
Still wondering how this fits timewise with anything in the past years, because Doom was pretty busy, getting arrested and experimenting on Asgardians and such. And in case you didn't know it from every YA issue yet, Billy and Teddy are dating each other.
I don't think the "boyfriend" line was obtrusive. Also, while I'll agree that Billy and Teddy's relationship has been front and center, I think it's just because this is essentially about Billy and the Maximoffs. Usually you'd see more about Kate/Eli and Cassie/Vision's relationships as well, but they're not deeply involved in the whole Scarlet Witch thing and have kind of been sidelined as a result.
Given the length of this series, you'd think there'd be room for a subplot or two, but I guess that's difficult when there's no downtime for the team and they're all away from home.
Still, though, you could have Patriot and Magneto butting heads over leadership, and maybe more of a schism in the team about how to address the present situation. This series is long as hell, though, so I suppose there's still time for all of that.

edit: Avengers Prime #5 preview. Damn Steve, no wonder Sharon shot you years back.
The only other line that would have the same effect would be, "Can we go save that idiot..." but neither one is more or less clumsy than the other, they just summon a different picture.
Maybe open mouth kissing is the polite way to say goodbye in blue people culture? Maybe Steve is being diplomatic, Captain Kirk style!
twisting the knife a bit by saying it was "8 of 8" on the cover.
Avengers #9 has a Steve and Tony talk-off, and they were doing so well going on vacation to bro-halla and working out their problems.
And New Avengers #8 has Cage trying to make Jessica change her codename while on a dinner date.
Though it is nice to see someone call Tony out on his ego
Come on, he wasn't going to kill Tony. He stops himself.
And then he surrenders to the authorities, which is clearly an act of humility.

And him being "dissapointed" with everyone who disagrees with him is lame and patronising.
But he at least is not Tony Stark
After he destroyed half the city in his temper tantrum. And while Tony has an ego, he doesn't cheat on his girlfriend when he's in another dimension because it's not the same zipcode.
Joking aside, there was another time during later Avengers West Coast issues, particularly #102, where Steve kept acting like he was the oldest/longest serving Avenger and Tony had to keep telling him "dude, I helped found this team." ANd thus Force Works was born.
And if we start listing all the ways Bendis ignores characterization and continuity outside his own books for cheap gags, we'll be here all day.

let's talk about serve and protect instead
are they actually going to resolve the dangling Blink plot point from Necrosha in an anthology book?
Didn't 616 Blink die within the first 4 issues of Generation X?
e: oh hey, I can wiki it.
Considering she's still a minion of Selene I doubt they're going to do that.
Also I don't expect an Exiles book for a while given the comic buying audience's constantly proven distaste for books that "don't count".
Whining baby.
Which is sort of legit
I mean it's not like superheroes don't do that all the time
but the illuminati were kind of dicks who made some mistakes and then didn't tell anyone
