West Coast Avengers Vol. 1: Best Coast

by Kelly Thompson

Collects West Coast Avengers (2018) #1-6. The Avengers go west once again - but these ain't your daddy's Whackos! A bold new era begins for the mightiest heroes to ever live on the Pacific Coast. That means Hawkeye (your favorite one, Kate Bishop)! Hawkeye (the other one, Clint Barton)! America Chavez! Kid Omega! Gwenpool! And a guy named Fuse! Wait, what? That's right, these are the new West Coast Avengers. And you better hope they can figure out how to save the world, and fast - because big things are headed for their part of the planet! Including the attack of the 50-foot were-woman - better known as original WCA member Tigra - plus more B-movie, monster-sized threats! The West Coast Avengers are back, and California's super villains aren't happy - and in a not-so-amusing amusement park, they're going to make their feelings known!

It's a solid 3 rating, but I can see why others might be turned off by this comic.

Here's the start of a new Super Hero team lead by Kate Bishop. I didn't have a strong feeling about this one, only reading it because I like a couple of characters on this new team. It was a silly and fun read, in a good way. Some other comics try to hard to be silly or have there characters act too ridiculous but it just comes off over the top or childish. This is an odd ball team and so far it's working for them, as they are learning to work on a Superhero team together.

If your looking for a comic that isn't taking itself too seriously, then this might be for you.

It had just enough in this volume, that I'm going to pick up Vol 2 to see what happens next.
