    I picked up the marvel must-have, then the h/c and now i'm grabbing it monthly. I'm loving it in a way i haven't loved an Avengers title in a long while. Plus Tigra! Whom i adore.

    There's something about Chris' work that has this deep characterization that you rarely see elsewhere anymore. From Tigra to Taskmaster, these characters really come alive!

    Hi Dan,
    Any plans to have Lyra(She-Hulk) attend the Avengers Academy? It would be great to see her attend the Academy because she would be around her own pears. Don't you agree?

    Is the series really that good? I hate to judge books by their covers, especially comics. Too bad i do it all the time.. To me this just looked like a rehash of Avengers Initiative (the first few story arcs of which i loved, but i eventually grew tired of the series). I don't know anything about this group of characters since they're all new, but the small taste i got of them from their appearance in Thunderbolts did nothing to spark my interest.. They just seem like a less interesting attempt at creating a new batch of superheroes, which they already did in Initiative. Its no longer an interesting idea (unless these new characters are cooler than they look). If my assumptions are truly wrong, I'll prob pick up the trade.

    From the little I've seen it seems like a rather different book. Although obviously a replacement for ATI.

    I'd say give it a chance.
