    Yay, Babies!!!!

    This is just some clean, cutsie fun that captures Skottie Young's wonderful sense of humor and encapsulates his "Marvel Babies" concept very nicely into one solid issue, that skims over an event that, in its natural translation, became pretty bland pretty quickly.

    The plot is Cyclops stole Bucky Bear the teddy bear from Cap, which leads to an all out war of Marvel babies. Each scene looks awesome, combining pretty cool fights with cute ideas of what would happen in this scenario between the baby iterations. These can range easily, and have some stellar results.

    If there's one critique, it's that the ending is kind of abrupt and out of no where, but come on, this is a goddamned one shot where babies beat the snot out of each other.

    Pick this up and have a blast with the fantastic art and overall good writing that makes this a fun and quick read for all to enjoy.

The best sight gag, however, comes in the form of the Phoenix making an appearance. I think many people in the Marvel...

      Better than the entire run of AvX. 0

      I hate AvX, every single thing about it...well, maybe not every single thing. Skottie Young's Midtown Variant Cover feature the long forgotten Marvel Babies characters was nothing short of beautiful. I was lucky to be in New York the week it was released, and therefore get my hands on it. Despite how terrible the interior of that issue was, the cover is so good that the AvX #1 variant edition is one of my most prized comics. Apparently I wasn't the only one who was impressed, that single lowly r...
