Avengers: The Initiative Featuring Reptil #1 by Christos Gage. AVENGERS ACADEMY formed during the Heroic Age, started off as a team of six superpowered teenagers who were previously tortured and experimented on by Norman Osborn. In fear of the kids becoming criminals, the Avengers have taken it upon themselves to train and guide them in the direction of becoming a hero. Since Fear Itself took place, a student has left and Hank Pym has expanded the class to any young superhuman looking for instruction. Avengers Academy was originally created by Christos Gage & Mike McKone for Marvel Comics. The comic book series ran from June 2010 to November 2012. SPOILER WARNING: Please note that this page does contain minor spoilers of who leaves, guest stars and a quick summary of some events. Below is the current reading order of Avengers Academy . It's a pretty self-contained comic book, making it only necessary to read the series itself written by Christos Gage to follow the stories of the main students. Finesse, Mettle, Hazmat, Veil and Striker first popped up in the Marvel Universe in Avengers Academy #1 , published June 2010. While Reptil's first comic appearance was in the one-shot, Avengers: The Initiative Featuring Reptil in May 2009. After Veil decided to leave in issue #20, Lightspeed (former member of Power Pack & the Loners) and Ava Ayala the new White Tiger joined the Academy in issue #21 as full-time students. Later in issue #23, Laura Kinney, known as X-23 also joined the team as a main student as well.

With the Fifty State Initiative in tatters from the fallout of Secret Invasion, Tigra must pull together a squad from the few superhumans still fit for duty, including Cloud 9, Komodo, Prodigy. and a brand new recruit. Be here for the debut of Marvel's newest superstar--REPTIL! Will he save the Initiative. or ruin it? REVIEW: Reptil #1 Is a Roaring Reintroduction. Reptil’s real name is Humberto Lopez. He was a superhero. If the name doesn’t sound familiar, don’t worry. Reptil #1 — the first issue of a four- part, post- Outlawed , post- King in Black miniseries — effectively (re)introduces the character, who first appeared in writer Christos Gage and artist Steve Uy’s Avengers: The Initiative Featuring Reptil #1. Reptil #1. Enid Balám (penciler), Terry Blas (writer), Carlos Lopez (colorist), Paco Medina and Federico Blee (cover), Victor Olazaba (inker), VC’s Joe Sabino (letterer) Marvel Comics May 26, 2021. Over a two-page spread deftly rendered by Balám, Olazaba, Lopez, and Sabino, Humberto summarizes his canon: from his first appearance, when he got the fossilized bone amulet that allowed him to turn into any dinosaur (in Blas’s words, “every kid’s dream, really”), in 2009 to the disbanding of the Avengers Academy team in 2013. Between his past and the present is the enactment of Kamala’s Law in 2020, which, if you haven’t read Outlawed or the most recent run of Champions , made unsupervised teenage superheroics illegal. Reptil #1 really starts when Humberto and his grandfather Vicente (Papá Vic) move in with his aunt Gloria and twin cousins, Eva (an overachiever) and Julian (a content creator), in Los Angeles. At home and out in the city, the family uses untranslated Spanish words and phrases (neither Google Translate Spanish nor <language “translated” into English>) and makes references to Chicanx culture, evidencing the creative team’s use of specificity to engender authenticity. They do so not just through language but also settings. There’s a poster of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo on the wall of Julian’s room, and the twins take Humberto to Santee Alley, a subsection of LA’s fashion district that’s colloquially known as “Los Callejones,” where Eva and Julian bought the outfits for their shared quinceañera and where Humberto will be attacked by a supervillain. Although Humberto, Eva, and Julian don’t always sound like teens — they’re maybe too good at talking about their feelings — they do look their nonspecific, older than 15 but younger than 20, ages. Their physical features make them look young but not too young, and their clothing (including Humberto’s Selena y Los Dinos sweatshirt) is age-appropriate, which is never guaranteed in teen superhero titles. Moreover, they’re consistently colored, such that their skin tones are affected by light and shadow but never whitewashed. Having said all of this, my favorite formal element comes from the lettering.

This relationship has also informed superhero comics themselves – going all the way back to Superman’s debut in Action Comics 1 (June 1938). As DC President Paul Levitz says of the development of the superhero: ‘There was an enormous desire to see social justice, a rectifying of corruption. Superman was a fulfillment of a pent-up passion for the heroic solution’ (quoted in Poniewozik 2002: 57).

However, Tony Stark decided to put his mind to work with other ideas and requested Fear Itself: Avengers audience with the All-Father himself. Ever the futurist, Tony recognized Fear Itself: Avengers to beat a group of Asgardian empowered foes he would need to create Fear Itself: Avengers team of Asgardian empowered Avengers. The events that followed saw the Avengers decked out in Uru armor and weapons in their final battle to defend the Earth. Even Thor takes up a new weapon, the Odinsword Ragnarok, in the final battle against Cul. However, in the time that Tony was gone creating these weapons, Captain America's shield had been broken. Not knowing this, Tony Fear Itself: Avengers without a gift for Cap, who seems more than happy donning the weapons of civilians in his holding of the line. While Captain America wasn't the first Avenger to lift it and had even lifted it beforethe sight of Captain America holding Mjolnir completes the idea of an Asgardian powered Avengers team. Fear Itself: Avengers moment completely shifts the tide of the battle as well, where previously the world Fear Itself: Avengers in bad shape and Odin was poised to essentially destroy it to win, the arrival of the Mighty and a Mjolnir-wielding Captain America return hope to Earth and strikes fear into their foes.

If it were not for your sacrifices, we would not have the lives and opportunities we have now. Having your constant love and support means the world to me. You are both my North Stars for everything I do. I would also like to acknowledge my sister for convincing Mom and Dad to let you name me after two of your greatest childhood role models, superheroines, and cultural icons. The Pink Power Ranger and The Queen of Tejano music are both pretty huge namesakes to live up to. I hope I do their legacies justice and that I am making you proud. I know I do not say this to you often but know that, through all our ups and downs, you were my hero growing up.
