To me, that was like taking Babs out of the chair; why on Earth would you reset interesting character development? I just don't get what things like that accomplish.
What is the point of "interesting character development" if it locks you into the character not moving forward? The alcoholism scene was about sacrifice of something dear to him to prove himself. It is explicitly built off character development. They didn't reset anything. He isn't an alcoholic in Gillen's run or in Fraction's run following I don't think, though there are references here or there.

Age of Ultron though, I don't know, I generally feel like a Bendis apologist around here but even I couldn't find much to recommend it. Totally all over the place thematically, no excitement or suspense anywhere, super forgettable art. There just wasn't a single dynamic or exciting thing about it.
I think the best way to sum up Age of Ultron is that Bendis made big bold claims about how time was broken and time travel and and ... Then nothing happens of note. The crossover didn't even manage to muster up the "big changes!!! omg!!!" thing that all big two crossovers try to do then everyone forgets about.

That's because SNOWFLAME is awesome and Hemogoblin was loving retarded.
Isn't that a pun even? I mean he eats hemoglobin and he's a gobbling? Hemo-goblin?

 I sort of like how Onslaught was supposed to somehow relate to Gambit and Bishop's whole future-traitor story thread but for the life of me I can't really understand how you could possibly reconcile it together.
