The Fantastic Four three-parter that leads things off is an OK action adventure, but unfortunately reads like a pale reflection of the stories in the actual FF comic [6/10]. The two-part Avengers Academy story has a bit of humor and some nice characterization of all around [7/10], but the shorts that end the book are barely worth having, as they don't fit into the comics main plot and aren't that interesting in and of themselves. [5/10] Overall, a somewhat disappointing volume given the comics recent strength.
