This book lived up to my expectations Heinberg & Cheung get these characters, which makes sense because they created most of them. My favorite part of this book is the way that Heinberg makes Billy & Teddy being a couple almost a non-issue. It's definitely an integral part of the story, but it never comes off as preachy or as if it's done for shock value. As a gay man, I really appreciate that.
Another great part was Cassie's wish for her father's return. It was a nice surprise for me and I'm glad that Heinberg avoided the" outburst of rage" reaction that I was expecting at some point. Cassie's plea for Billy to find Wanda seemed genuine and natural.
Cheung's artwork is gorgeous as usual. I appreciate the detail that he puts into the Young Avengers costumes. I feel as if some of the other artists who have worked on these characters gloss over these details.
The only sad part about this series is that I have to wait 2 months for another issue. Oh well, I've decided it's worth the wait.
Story: 4 - Very Good
Art: 5 - Excellent

I suppose the relationship itself never feels preachy, it’s more Teddy’s sexuality that is used as an argument. The relationship, as you say, feels authentic. Hulkling’s discussion with one of the Sons of the Serpent felt very preachy to me. I wish it would have been left out, Heinberg seemed to handle their relationship pretty deftly after that encounter: quietly and subtly. Leaving Teddy’s dialogue out (or writing a different dialogue) would have been more in line with Heinberg’s treatment of Billy and Teddy relationship and sexuality throughout the rest of the book. Glad you’re enjoying this.
