When I first saw this book and the premise I thought "Ugh. More teen angst..." But I gave it a shot and while there was some typical teen defiance moments ("We're super heroes dumbass") but once Arcade, that choice surprised me, showed them that they were in a real jam, all the attitude stopped. And I have to say that the way the writer handled Arcade, he is no longer that joke of a character that I remember from X-Men #122-#123, this guy is dangerous now. The way he dealt with Mettle shows that this group is WAY in over their heads. For now I'm in this, I'm curious to see where this goes, and not having read or seen "The Hunger Games" I don't get the reference, which was cool they had Arcade acknowledge that he might have read it, but I do see a little of "Lord of the Flies" in there. Artistically I enjoyed the visuals, it was crisp and conveyed the story without the artist copying another style. He told the story in pictures which is all a good story needs.
