History Awesome / AvengersVsXMen

* Comicbook/RachelSummers, MagnificentBitch. Yes, really.

* "Yes, [[ComicBook/IncredibleHulk Hulk]] will smash for you."

* [[spoiler:Comicbook/RachelSummers]], MagnificentBitch. Yes, really.

* Spider-Man sealing himself off from the rest of the Avengers & alone with [[spoiler:a Phoenix-empowered Colossus & Magik]], so that they can [[spoiler:rescue the Avengers that the X-Men had taken as their prisoners]], and ''then'' [[spoiler:managing to defeat them by tricking them into fighting one another to try and reclaim a third of the Phoenix force, only for them to knock each other out]]. Considering Spidey is usually reduced to a background character making sarcastic comments in Marvel's {{Crisis Crossover}}s despite being Marvel's flagship character, it's ''long'' overdue.\\\
Considering [[spoiler:events that took place shortly afterwards in ''Amazing Spider-Man'', with Doctor Octopus stealing Peter's life & identity and proclaiming himself the ComicBook/SuperiorSpiderMan, it comes off as Spider-Man getting a last hurrah in one of Marvel's top titles]].
* Hope combining the Iron Fist and Chaos Magic to [[spoiler: drive off the phoenix empowered Cyclops.]]
* After [[spoiler:[[EnemyMine the Avengers and X-Men put their issues aside to take down Cyclops]]]], we get this during the final battle.

(''Cyclops is [[spoiler:smashed into the ground by a barrage of ice]]'')\\
'''[[spoiler:Iceman]]:''' Not us, '''YOU!''' It's just ''you'' everyone is sick of. Damn you, Summers!

* In the final issue, Hope Summers, with the aid of her Iron Fist training and copying the Scarlet Witch's RealityWarper powers, [[spoiler:fulfills her destiny as Mutant Messiah and restores the X-gene]].

* Some of the ''[=AvX=]: Vs.'' fights were really awesome. Daredevil vs. Psylocke and Iron Man vs. Magneto just to name a couple. Emma Frost vs. Thor was awesome as well, [[spoiler:Emma is amazing when she gives him a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown.]]
* [[spoiler:"Yes, [[ComicBook/IncredibleHulk Hulk]] will smash for you."]]

* The fact that although he lost the actual beating-people-up portion of the fight, [[spoiler:Cyclops]] essentially accomplished everything he set out to do. Emphasized in the final ''Uncanny X-Men'' tie-in; [[spoiler:Scott is now in shackles for the crimes he committed [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity as Dark Phoenix]], and he repeatedly asks Beast, who is detaining him, if the mutant race was restored. Beast dodges the question for as long as possible, but eventually caves and tells him that they were, and Cyclops,[[https://comicnewbies.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/cyclops.jpg in response, raises his cuffed hands to the sun]] in the shape of an X]]. Whether you think ''[=AvX=]'' was the greatest or worst thing ever, the one thing everyone seems to agree on about it is that his character arc, from ''ComicBook/NewXMen'' to this story, has been ''awesome''.
* The fact that Professor X manages to take on Phoenix![[spoiler:Cyclops]] in a psychic duel, and put him down over and over again, only losing when [[spoiler: Cyclops]] takes the whole Phoenix Force for himself.

Considering [[spoiler:events that took place shortly afterwards in ''Amazing Spider-Man'', with Doctor Octopus stealing Peter's life & identity and procaliming himself the ComicBook/SuperiorSpiderMan, it comes off as Spider-Man getting a last hurrah in one of Marvel's top titles]].

* The entire final battle with Dark Phoenix Cyclops. He takes on the combined roster of the Avengers and the X-Men and fights them all off all around the globe without any effort whatsoever. At one point he ''punched the Hulk from Australia to America''. Even the combined might of Hope and the Scarlet Witch isn't enough to put him down, had the spirit of Jean not talked him down he would have effortlessly destroyed the world and quite possibly the universe too.

* Hulk's entrance into the final battle is by overhand double fist slam which sends Emma Frost through the island's landmass and into the ocean. And when a furious Emma, who at this point has half the Phoenix Force in her, blasts at him, he proceeds to NoSell it. In fact, all the time Cyclops was fighting off others, Hulk was holding her off, and easily at that.

** Even his defeat at the hands of Dark Phoenix Cyclops is awesome, as he is the only one other than Hope or Wanda Cyclops had to attack.l more than once to take down.

* The fact that Professor X manages to take on Phoenix![[spoiler: Cyclops]] in a psychic duel, and put him down over and over again, only losing when [[spoiler: Cyclops]] takes the whole Phoenix Force for himself.

-->'''Cyclops:''' You see that, Xavier? They're ''trying to assassinate us!!'' This is who you side with!\\

-->'''Professor X''': Sit ''down'' boy!

'''[[spoiler:Iceman]]:''' Not us, '''YOU!''' It's just ''you'' that everyone is sick of. Damn you, Summers!

* Hope giving Wanda some [[LaserGuidedKarma comeuppance]] for depowering all the mutants. "Hope has Level 16 in insubordination." Doubles as a CrowningMomentOfFunny.

* Spider-Man's speech to Hope to help her cope with her destiny. It is certainly a strong speech and also Heartwarming considering the inspriation. Also a FunnyMoment in how it took one speech to go from seeing him as a goofball to an amazing hero and wanting a costume more like his.

* The fact that Marvel comics were able to release some amazing comic books after the spectacular character derailment that occurred in this event is pretty damn awesome.

* Issue 10 has a lot of awesome one-liners from Cyclops as he lays a huge beatdown on the Avengers. Most notably after he KO's Ben Grimm: "How's that for Clobberin' Time?"
* In the final issue, Hope Summers, with the aid of her Iron Fist training and copying the Scarlet Witch's RealityWarper powers, [[spoiler:fulfills her destiny as Mutant Messiah and restores the X-gene]].

* Red Hulk's ''brilliant'' XanatosGambit on Colossus, he knows he can't overpower Colossus with his Juggernaut powers, so he instead uses his advantage, he's not just a Hulk Recolor, he's also [[GeniusBruiser a General]] and knows how to outhink his opponents. So he drives Colossus into going OneWingedAngel and losing control, at which point he's too far gone to be able to control himself and will likely destroy utopia's support pillar. If Colossus doesn't destroy it? He'll be too busy fighting himself to fight back and Rulk can finish him and win the fight.
* Kieron Gillen's way to restore Namor's honour after being soundly beaten by The Thing and Luke Cage of all people ''underwater'' in one of the most controversial fights. His way of doing so? Namor casually [[CurbStompBattle curbstomping]] Luke Cage and [[http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/7/78977/2515759-uxm12_lukeclub_crop.jpg using him as a freaking club to one-shot She-Hulk]]. Awesome indeed.
