Reading this isn't going to change your life, or effect the reading of Secret Wars in anyways, but what it will do is put a smile on your face and make your day a little brighter, because we all need a little fun now and then. Read Full Review

Now for the main reason I picked up this comic. Skottie Young's art. I appreciate that Young included not only newer characters (like Spider-Gwen) but also newer incarnations of older characters (like Storm and her badass mohawk). His art always makes me smile. From the gap in Cap's teeth to the plastic plunger on the end of Hawkeye's arrows, Young gets the details JUST right that you want to see more characters in this universe. Read Full Review

Marvel took a big risk in disrupting almost their entire line with Secret Wars and its multitude of tie-ins. But I'm glad they still have a sense of humor and can put out a comic like Skottie Young's Giant-Size Little Marvel: AvX. This is the perfect counterpoint to the uber serious Secret Wars.

There isn't much to say here except that if you like fun and comedy, you should read *breaths in* "Giant-Size Little Marvel: AvX#1". It's what you expected out of a Skottie Young book and that's all I could've asked for. Read Full Review

Definitely pick up this first issue; either for the kids or not, it's very enjoyable. Of course it's just one more fantastic book that Marvel is putting out right now, but it's absolutely one to add to the list, for a bit of a light read with a few laughs. It'll leave you eager to see what shenanigans the little Avengers and the little X-Men can get into next! Read Full Review

Of course, that's not to say he slouches in the art department. Not only is his expressively cartoony style as enjoyable as ever, but he also utilizes physical comedy quite well. These moments, such as Rogue always being on her cell phone (even in battle) or Daredevil's hilarious directional challenges, are great, Young's youthful spirit adding giant size fun to this giant size read.

"Giant Size: Little Marvel: AvX" #1 is far from essential reading, but it's definitely fun. Quoting one of Young's verses early in the issue, "it's quirky, it's silly, a bit insane," and it's all the better because of it. Anyone looking for a different kind of "Secret Wars"-inspired mashup will find an entertaining one here. Read Full Review

Completely adorable, but did not blow me away. I can see them having a lot of fun in the future though. Reoccurring jokes were not good- my only complaint. But the cuteness got me. Will be adding to my pull list and looking forward to the next issue. Visually vibrant and expressive.
