* GrandFinale: Played with. ''Avengers vs. X-Men'' was technically the true finale of the Brian Bendis era of ''Avengers'' (and the culmination of everything ''Avengers Disassembled'' set in motion). ''Age of Ultron'' is more of a coda (albeit the finale of a storyline Bendis had been seeding in the pages of the 2010 ''Avengers'' relaunch).
