    Comics: The Gathering - Aaron Reese Dec 3, 2016

    Issue #2 takes time to introduce new characters and new problems, which made it a little slower than the nearly perfect first issue, but it’s still a great entry to a promising comedy series. Highly recommended. Read Full Review

    Heroes Direct - Adam Fitch Nov 30, 2016

    The artwork by Will Robson is genuinely some of the best art we've seen in an ongoing book by any publisher in quite some time. The characters are impressively expressive and the cartoon-esque feel compliments the silly nature of the book and the team. Good Boy looks so bloody awesome, too. Read Full Review

    I do wish the series was moving a bit more rapidly, but it's tough to complain when the book is this much fun. Read Full Review

    AIPT - David Brooke Nov 30, 2016

    The team is pulling together nicely, though maybe at a slower pace than one might like. This is a series that has a nice chip on its shoulder that, once pulled together, may just be the best “B-team” book on the market. Here's to waiting for it to start to gel! Read Full Review

    Henchman-4-Hire - Sean Ian Mills Dec 3, 2016

    Everything in this issue just falls flat for me. The jokes, the new characters, the existing characters, the slow-going plot; there's no heart. This sort of comic needs to be bursting with heart and personality, but Gorman is already spreading himself too thin without building a proper foundation. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Reggie Hemingway Dec 5, 2016

    Why does this book exist? Was this a real pitch? "The GLA uses the Avengers' resources to legally use the name." This is like something out of a law school textbook. Utter nonsense. The art, you can take it or leave it, and I'd personally leave it. In fact, leave this whole comic book in the trash. Read Full Review
