Yeah, I'm an idiot and didn't realise that this volume has five issues and not six, so I didn't even realise that it had ended. Moving on: this is great. Or, if you love the characters it's great.

The plot is very whatever, to the point where I legitimately can't remember enough of it to explain it to you other than the fact that some people get made giant and angry, and there's something at the end with a masked villain.

But that doesn't even matter because I love the characters so damn much. This follows Kate Bishop/Hawkeye, aka my wife, as she tries to lead the newly-formed West Coast Avengers; her boyfriend Johnny Watts/Fuse who is pretty new to the whole superhero thing and is really only in it for Kate; Clint Barton/Hawkeye who doesn't want to be there and is an exasperated dad the whole time; America Chavez who's just punching stuff and meeting a cute girl (Johnny's sister, to be exact); Gwendolyn Poole/Gwenpool who's a chaotic mess, as would be expected; and Quentin Quire/Kid Omega who is also super chaotic and that causes Sexual Tension with Gwen.

These characters are all complete messes who are being followed around by a documentary camera crew, eating pizza, and arguing about leaving wet towels on the bathroom floor. They're the only reasons why I care about continuing this.

So if you don't like the characters, then I wouldn't bother because you probably won't like it, but as someone who would lay down her life for both the Hawkeyes I had a great time.
