Avengers Academy is great, the first three issues are well worth $3.99.
Avengers Academy is pretty good. The rest are FAR from must reads.
As a matter of fact all of those titles will be completely forgotten in two years time.
Apart from not being epic level comics, do any of those three issue arcs tell a cohesive story that deliver any kind of good read. For some characters, I’d just be happy for a decent story that I don’t have to read 40 titles to understand what’s going on. Decent story that wraps in 3 issues sounds pretty good to me, and for only 4-5 bucks isn’t that bad either.
