I really enjoyed this. I've liked the whole series so far, but this issue stood out to me for some reason. I love that the team is mostly made up of young versions of established heroes, this is how I prefer they do it. No trying to replace Ghost Rider with Robbie Reyes, no Laura Kinney as Wolverine (love her, but she's X-23), the only one I'm only moderately cool with is Miles as Spiderman. I dunno how to describe it, but just seems different in the case of the two Spidermen. Anyway, the art and writing worked well together in this issue and I'm really digging this team. My favorite page was Hela: "Is this guy part of your family?" "I don't care about him." [eg] "Then I accept your terms." Got a chuckle out of me.
Epilogue: And they were never seen again, except for the ones briefly appearing to get killed by the big bad at the start of a future event.
