Young Avengers, Volume 1: Style > Substance
by Kieron Gillen
During a recent sale on ComiXology, I downloaded some comics based solely on the fact that some of my favorite artists had drawn them. This book was one of those, as I've always loved Jamie McKelvie's art from the first time I'd seen it.
This one was a fun little romp through a somewhat lesser known part of the Marvel Universe, though I'm pretty sure it probably became a hit due to the creators involved.
This was an origin story of sorts, a sort of genesis story, in that as soon the team got all the kinks worked out and was ready to rock and roll, the story ended. It was a lot of fun to read, but it left you feeling that the true potential of the story of the matching up of this group of characters had yet to be explored.
As said above, though, the artwork was fantastic, in my opinion. Jamie McKelvie has just got a great style. As expected, the book perfectly delivered there.
I recommend this to fans of the creators involved and maybe to those who would want to bust out the extra dough to see where these characters end up next.
*-I read this book as digitally downloaded issues of Young Avengers #s 1-5 and Marvel Now! Point One (Young Avengers story)
