The bit with Tony rhapsodizing about Steve's heartbeat goes beyond starry-eyed crush and into the edges of creepy borderline-stalker territory. Yet somehow it's still adorable.
I'm desperately torn over whether to acquire current Avengers stuff and read these, because on the one hand, I love it when Bendis writes Steve & Tony because the shippiness is so epic, but on the other hand, I hate it when Bendis writes Hank and Jan because his inexplicable total loathing of Jan makes him write both of them OOC, especially Jan. Poor Jan, guilty of the ultimate sin of being a pre-Disassembled Avenger with boobs (Wanda, Jan, Tigra, the attempted killing-off of Carol... She-Hulk's probably lucky she wasn't on the team line up during Secret Invasion/Dark Reign).
