Easy to read, charming, fun, but very very cliche is the best way to describe the first volume of Avengers.

Basically we get a new cast to be in Avengers, such as Nova, Ms. Marvel, Miles and more. The chats between our heroes is both light and fun. Some funny moments, some heartfelt, and overall good chemistry between them all. Also the entire volume has solid art.

On flip side the story itself, or plot, is very very basic. Evil bad's coming to earth, avengers gather, and boom. We win. Then at the end the big bad you learn isn't really as bad as they say and a even BIGGER bad is coming. Sounds familiar? Yeah...welcome to every superhero story ever.

Still, it's fun, easy read, good for introduction to new readers. Just don't expect anything magical (excluding Thor) and you'll be satisfied.
