Fun and simple read of the founding of Marvel's iconic superhero team.
This comic is very fantastic.
A more in-depth, "realed up" look at the early, fractious days of the Avengers. I'm not always on board for this kind of look at the characters, which tends to make them all look smaller, like petty jerks, rather than the human yet heroic characters that Stan Lee wrote, but... Joe Casey wrote a pretty interesting story, and it was a nice antidote to the New Avengers revamp.The key, though, is the Scott Kolins artwork. This is fantastic stuff, particularly his work on Thor and Hawkeye (one of my
Nota: 4.5/5Hacía tiempo que no disfrutaba tantísimo una lectura. Personajes sobre los que no había leído nunca, una trama que nace de la primera fundación de Los Vengadores donde la acción no decae un momento y me ha tenido emocionada página tras página.
nao lembro mais ✌✌☺️
The art could be better, but it's good to see when Hawkeye and the Maximoff twins joined the team.
Billed as one of those "secret origins of" stories that seem to be cropping up all of the time, Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes details the "behind the scenes" events that occurred during the Avengers' formative years (in this case, the first year). These comics read more as a companion to the original Avengers issues (through Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch joining the team). If the reader doesn't have knowledge of those issues, then this is really only half a story. And even if the reader doe...
A sure entertainer. There is action, a good plot, tension and some great characters developing. The illustrations are good and pleasing. The conclusion was personally bland and lacking any drama. A great work done.

Creo que es una manera preciosa y muy acertada de recontar la historia del origen de los Avengers, de la importancia que tuvo la temprana presencia del Capi y cómo el mayordomo Jarvis siempre ha jugado un papel vital para mantener el ánimo de cada uno de los héroes.Se disfruta más cuando ya has leído los números originales y conoces a los personajes, es la verdad. Quizá por eso mismo es que a mí me ha parecido entrañable.
This is more or less supplemental material to older Avengers stories, which is an interesting concept. I think enjoyed it more precisely because I had recently read some of those stories. Otherwise, the issues felt a little too disjointed from one another. This may also be a result of reading them back-to-back in graphic novel form rather than the monthly releases they were intended to be. It is, however, a decent crash course in early Avengers mythos, taking the reader from the team's inception...
This gets three stars solely because Rick Jones was in much of it and I love him to pieces. Unfortunately I wasn't really interested in much of this comic beyond Rick's involvement, I liked that it focused on personal details with how the Avengers first started out, but the writer seemed to have an obvious bias for Captain America since his arc and general pleasantness was far better than the other characters.If you are a person who does like Captain America you'll probably enjoy reading these i...
As my first comic book, I freaking loved this.
I've never been an Avengers fan. In my entire comics reading life, I've read, maybe, a dozen issues of the Avengers. It's just never grabbed me. But this book grabbed me. Damn. By largely forgoing super-heroic action (Cap vs. Zemo is the only battle that completely plays out for the reader, anything else is just a clip to show that the Avengers do, in fact, fight and risk their lives) in favor of the human bonds created in forming the world's most prominent superhero team, Casey finally found an...
Sometimes going back and inserting new stories into the past of a series is a bad idea, but Joe Casey does a wonderful job of fleshing out the stories from the Silver Age, when things weren't so fleshed out. It's a great addition to Avengers lore.
This is one of those retroactive continuity stories that does little but muck up the history that the story is trying to honor. Marvel has become obsessed with type of story and it reads fine once on a superficial level. But when trying to reconcile it with the classic stories that it might appear to be attempting to pay tribute to, it only comes across as a slap in the face. Don't get me wrong, this is a good read - but it ends up being rather insulting to the original creators as it attempts t...
The original Avengers line up is one of my favorite super hero teams, so this was a must read for me.The Scott Kollins art is very pretty and Joe CAsey does a nice job of mixing old and new. His view of Captain America as a man out of time and feeling a bit lost is really well down.Some of the political sub-plot felt a bit forced, but otherwise a nice mix of quiet human moments and big comic book action.The best of Casey's mini that looked at the early years of marvel's super teams.
3.5 starsThis is essentially a retelling of the first years of the Avengers. It covers quite a bit of ground and I enjoyed reading it. Sometimes it's hard to go back to the 60s Marvel days and this does a really good job updating the origins and taking it into the future. Instead of Cap waking up in 1963, it's pretty set in 2004. The gangs all here: Hulk (who leaves fairly early), Tony, Jan, Hank, Jarvis and Rick. I don't know much about Rick Jones but I found him incredibly annoying by the end

Esperaba mucho de este tomo pero me faltó los enfrentamientos con los villanos, ya sé que este tomo esta enfocado a mostrar la convivencia de los vengadores y sus problemas en el primer año de formación hasta la siguiente formación de nuevos valores vengadores pero aún así le faltó desarrollar más la historia.
