If I based this on art alone I'd probably go with a 3 or 4. However this story...

America is about a superhero who can punch people. Well, actually, she can punch portals into other dimensions and shit. Kind of cool right? Well this is her Solo series after being part of Young Avengers and Ultimates for awhile. So she decides to find herself. Try to go to school and be her own woman. This sounds like a recipe for something truly exciting. Gabby Rivera is a well received author too so this could only further my excitement. What went wrong?

Good: The art. It's really great at parts. Some of the most colorful and wonderful scenes of fighting I've seen. I also enjoyed some moments of light humor.

Bad: The story is just...awful? A mix of try hard, which is the worst part about it. I don't mind America's voice being more hip, using words like "moms" is fine. My issue is everyone in here talks like they belong on Tumblre or something. Like straight from the interwebs instead of real life people. Also some of the dialog is cringy at best, with some odd wording for characters. The hawkeye issue in particular was bad, which is a shame because I always hope for her and Hawkeye to fall in love. Also the pacing is a huge issue, most of the time being very very freaking boring.

Nothing really worked well in this book except the art. Saying that I can't give it higher than a 1.5. Still better than a few comics I read this year but this is one of the lower ones.
