    I'll go ahead and say it… Teen hero books are often well thought of. It's safe to say both Avengers: The Initiative and Avengers Academy can be seen as Marvel's version of DC's Teen Titans. Thanks to Christos Gage and his stable of artists, Avengers Academy is every bit as enjoyable as some of the most highly regarded runs of Teen Titans. You'll have a hard time convincing me otherwise.

    Hopefully the upcoming guest-appearance of the kids from Runaways will give this book a little bit of a boost. Its the best book in the Avengers family these days, and one of the best books Marvel is publishing. Read Full Review

    Yes, the series is too crowded for its own good at the moment, and hopefully that flaw will be addressed in future issues. But issue #25 gives fans plenty to chew on as the current arc wraps up and offers the sort of fun, bombastic, old-school adventure that you won't find in many Avengers books these days.

    Well, this was a pretty good issue, but for whatever reason, I didn't enjoy it as much as I did some of the earlier issues of the series. The battle with Hybrid was well done, as he was a force to be reckoned with, and nearly single-handedly defeated the entire Academy, trainers and students both! The stuff with Reptil, both present and future was okay, but never really came together for me. And the Jocasta reveal, while dramatic, didn't really impact me either. Oh well, if nothing else, the return of Jocasta and Veil should liven things up come the next issue, as we get away from the mindless fighting and get back to the inter-character relationships that made this series so great to begin with.

    "Avengers Academy" #25 isn't the final issue in this storyline, with an epilogue around the corner. Hopefully it will push the comic back up to the higher levels I've come to expect. This issue isn't bad, but I expect great from this title, not just good. With any luck, great will be back in our next installment. Read Full Review
