  I had high hopes that this series would at least be entertaining. I didn't exactly expect for this to be such a roller coaster that's matching the fun of Avengers: The Initiative. In my book, that's a hell of an accomplishment! Read Full Review

  All in all, Hardball being alive, as well as a good story make for a very happy X. Read Full Review

  Prodigy also stands out this month as the pressure of his newfound responsibility begins to weigh down heavily. Prodigy is indicative of many characters in this book who have come so far since the days of Civil War and yet are still seeking their place among Marvel's more established heroes. If this series isn't necessarily vital to Fear Itself, it still has a valid message to convey about heroism in the Marvel Universe. And it's a fine character drama to boot. With a gripping story and some terrific pencils from Mike Norton, this series continues to be well worth the price of admission. Read Full Review

  This is a great mini-series so far, chock full of strong character moments for Marvel's current crop of teen heroes, and it doesn't seem to be slowing down in the least. I can't wait to see what McKeever/Norton have planned for the last two issues of this engaging mini-series! Recommended! Read Full Review

  To put it succinctly. This issue of Youth in Revolt sucks. Gravity attacks Hardball after the latter saved Las Vegas from the hammered Juggernaut. Reason? Hardball's tactics killed some people, and like Hardball states as he's fighting Gravity: "It's all black hats and white hats to you! No room for gray!" I must concur. Read Full Review
