A review by jjstallone
Vengeance by Nick Dragotta, Joe Casey

1.0

Read this because Young Avengers 2012 is my favorite thing. It reminds me a lot of Young Avengers Dark Reign, which I also did not like. The characters here are so unlikable. I had a hard time following what was going on, and I think part of the reason for that is how shoehorned in all the villains were that make up the cover art. It’s so evident that they were only put into the story so they could be used aa the cover art, because otherwise none of them had a real reason to be there. I struggled with how America Chavez is drawn in this book… it’s implied she is not even 16 but at the same time seems fixated on sexualizing her.
Honestly I just can’t think of why someone would pick this book up for any reason other than because it’s America Chavez’s origin, and there isn’t much that’s important here to understanding the character. Just read Young Avengers instead.
