Well, I'm a Chaykin fan, an Avengers fan, and a fan of late 50's glamour, so I figured this would be my pick of the week for sure. (Disclosure: I missed the preceding run in New Avengers, but I plan to find the back issues now.)
This was very exciting and fun, but a few problems in the visual storytelling put a real damper on it: The first involved Chaykin's problem with only drawing one blocky head for every male character. There weren't many caption in the book, and I had to keep flipping around to see if some of the people we were seeing were being introduced, or were the Avengers from the beginning. Also, a primer on what the power sets or specialties on these old Avengers are wouldn't have hurt.
When Sabretooth had his fight in the truck with the Lycanthrope, I had no idea what happened! Why did the werewolf fly off the hood? How did Victor get back in?
And there were a couple of weird anatomy things, even for Chaykin - the guy in the plane leaving Wakanda had a hand (full of glowing coins) that looked like it was drawn by a drunk Charles M. Shulz, and Fortune's hands on the cover were absurdly tiny.
I'm sticking with this and I still have high hopes, but this was a slow start with some art problems.
