no no no. i mean i meant that i knew about avengers as ongoing. or figured it would turn that way since it's slott(right?) writing it. but i remember there being a cw initiative as a one shot or mini

Anyone else afraid of Slott being on this project? This is his biggest project and this seems like such a risk for Marvel to put a writer so focused on continuity and campiness on a "serious important hero title".
I like him but also understand where some have found him a little hard to swallow. I hope he's able to pull this off.

Yeah, its not his usual stomping ground, oh well just have to wait and see I guess.

Not really. I've some of his work before that was a "serious important" title and all that, so I don't have a problem.

So I read this.
IT'S REALLY GOOD!
As long as they concentrate on teens and their training I think this is a hit.
4/5

I read #1. And I'm not sure if I like it or not. It's not bad...but it's not great either.
A lot of cliches. I mean a LOT.
And they brought back Slapstick.
Yeah....Slapstick.
And there's a character named "Emo".
So yeah....the jury is still out. If I had to make a decision right now on whether or not I'll continue to check this out based off the first issue alone....I'd drop it.

"Emo"? Don't you mean Trauma?

If he's anything like "Emo" from Tranquility, that can't be *too* bad.
Besides, if there was a character named "Grunge" in the 90s, it just seems, um, appropriate, iI guess...

I can't see myself liking this. Maybe I'll download it later.

I liked it, but it needs a lot of work to stay on my pull list month after month.
A solid 3.5/5 for me.

I stand corrected. Thanks.
Still doesn't make the character any better. He's emo and can feel your fear....and then transform into your fear. The girl was scared of spiders....so he turns into a giant spider. Meh.

I really liked this, although they choreographed MVP's death way early.
But then, I like Slott a lot.

Are they going to take the power of the people that are not fit for the "army"? Because that sounds a little to hard, the registration act seems more cruel than I thought.
I liked the first issue, I didn't like the Gauntlet (stupid design) and the removal of powers, but It sounds interesting.
