Summary: KANG DYNASTY WAS BETTER
Comment: Following up on the very successful Kang Dynasty storyline, comes the "World Trust" story arc.
The capital cities of every nation on Earth have mysteriously vanished, throwing the planet into anarchy. In this time of extraordinary crisis, the nations of the world turn to the only organization capable of leading them through this time of strife and restoring political, economic and social order; the Avengers. They can defeat any super-villain, but can they govern the entire world?
(...)
Not bad but a letdown after the outstanding Kang Arc.

Summary: More succesfful in vingettes than as a story
Comment: The worst move Geoff Johns could make would be to succeed the Kang Dynasty arc with another epic in which the very fabric of reality is threatened (albiet this time on a mystic level). Splitting order and chaos and thereby turning the world topsy-turvy reminded me of many other apocalyptic scenarios common to comics. However, this collection is saved by Johns sensitivy for his characters and their iconic symbolism. This collection contains some decent dialogue as well an interesting sub-plot in which the UN invests the Avengers with world leadership.

Summary: Warning! If you love the Avengers, don't buy this book!
Comment: What isn't wrong with Avengers: World Trust? To begin with,the art is bad. Toward the back of the volume there are a few almost decent group shots, but for much of the books everybody looks just plain ugly.They even manage to make the beautious Scarlet Witch and voluptious She Hulk look bad. As for the coloring, at one point, for no apparent reason the whole scene turns purple. The whole issue is a wide range of dark and darker shades. As to the plot, accept for the "griping" political situation, and "thrilling" soap opera moments, nothing really happens most of the time. No fights, no super villian, not even a robbery at the corner drug store. Why, early on, the entire city of Washington, D.C. disappears and nobody does anything about it for the entire lenght of the story. They have really brought The Avengers to a new low. I never thought it could happen. It has always been consistently good. When the X-Men were nothing more then a reprint mag, The Avengers were having great,new adventures. No more. Surely, it can't get worse then this. But then there was that time Ironman turned traitor, then into a teenage alternate universe version of himself, but at least that was quickly fixed. This travesty went on for several issues and I get the feeling it's not going to ever end, except maybe with a cancellation notice. Save your money. Buy an edition of DC Archives and read something fun.
