Really not a favourite of mine. This is the first comic I didn't really like too much, and I'm not completely sure why yet...

All three stars are for the Charles/Erik "The Friendship of the Tortoise and the Eagle."
(But, also Cap as Peter and the Lion was pretty dope.)

I don't understand why people are complaining so much about this... it's a Marvel retelling of classic fairy tales. I loved the illustrations and thought the artwork was wonderful! And I really enjoyed the way the stories were told..
I mean Cap as Peter Pan...? Iron Man as the Tin Man...? come. ON.! ♥♥♥

An okay marvel rendering of some classic fairy tales that quickly got boring, and...meh. It was fun at first to see some heroes envisioned as such as Peter Pan, and Dorothy, Little Red Riding Hood , etc.

That was truly and spectacularly awful. Like, the kind of bad that if I had a twitter, I woulda life tweeted reading it. It's... just amazingly awful. it kept shocking me with how very bad it was, and then, from there, would shock me by getting worse.

Bought this for my girlfriend and thought I might read it before sending it out (I usually do this whenever I give books away as presents anyway).
The stories are cute, although since I don't really follow a whole lot of Marvel superheroes, I don't think I understood all the references. Let's just be glad I actually knew who the Young Avengers were and leave it at that.
Some of the stories were pretty hurried, like, sudden reunions with estranged family etc. And then there are some really good ones that I loved: The Pinocchio one with Vision is a favourite, and the last story with Charles and Erik is very good too.

This is a very cute graphic novel! It takes some classic stories, like Peter Pan, Little Red Riding Hood and Alice in Wonderland, and casts Marvel characters in the roles. She-hulk finds herself as Dorothy facing the Scarlet Witch as the Wicked Witch of the West in Oz, while Mary Jane has help from Peter Parker to save Aunt May from the big bad wolf.
This is definitely a great read if you're a fan of the Avengers. I think it probably might be even more enjoyable if I were more familiar with the Avengers team (I spent much of the Pinocchio story trying to remember what Hank Pym's super powers were), but it's still a great read.
