About book Academia Vengadores #1: La Edad Heroica (2011)
An all around solid book by the always fantastic Christos Gage. The concept is intriguing and the cast is as engaging as the characters in similar books like Runaways and Young Avengers, though Gage never retreads what those books have done. Each issue switches perspectives, allowing for some fantastic character work. I believe I am beginning to retroactively mourn the fact that this book isn't still being released monthly. Six young super-humans become the inaugural class of the Avengers Academy after their tormentor, Norman Osborne, is arrested. They are told they were chosen because they are the best-of-the-best, and now they are the pupils of some of the best former Avengers to be molded into the next generation. But, are they really under the watchful eye of Hank Pym to become tomorrow's superheroes, or are they there to ensure that they don't become tomorrow's super-villains?I have no interest in comics...so I knew from the start this wouldn't be my favorite title. I tried keeping an open mind, but when early on, one of the girls refers to herself as flat-chested when she's at least a C-cup, I lost all hope. The story is an interesting enough premise, but it's not enough to move me past the ridiculous get-ups.
