[Super Hero News] Avengers: The Children's Crusade #1 Sells Out And Returns With Second Printing!

 

Avengers: The Children's Crusade #1 Sells Out And Returns With Second
Printing!

Marvel is pleased to announce that Avengers: The Children's Crusade #1
has sold out at Diamond (though copies may still be available at the
retail level) and will return with Avengers: The Children's Crusade #1
Second Printing Variant! From the acclaimed creative team of Allan
Heinberg and Jim Cheung, Avengers: The Children's Crusade #1 is the
first chapter in a story that will change the Marvel Universe forever!
Since "M-Day" the whereabouts of the Scarlet Witch have remained a
mystery, and there are some people who wish to keep it that way. However
when Wiccan's powers begin to rival those of the Scarlet Witch, he sets
off on a Marvel Universe-spanning adventure that pits him against The
Avengers!

Fans and critics agree, Avengers: The Children's Crusade is a hit!

"It will surprise no one that Heinberg writes these people better than
anyone else, and they all seem like real, living, breathing people.
Living, breathing people who can change shape, use magic and run faster
than the wind, obviously" - Kelvin Green, ComicsBulletin.com

"Cheung captures all the emotion and drama the script requires of him."
- Jesse Schedeen, IGN.com

"Comics fact: There are some properties that seem to become synonymous
with a single creator, and they never really seem to succeed in the same
way without them. Case in point: Allan Heinberg and the Young Avengers."
- David Pepose, Newsarama.com

"Speaking of Cheung, boy, have I missed him on interiors...We're
reminded of the level of acting he provides these characters, not to
mention the fluid layouts and delicious splash pages." - Noel Bartocci,
BrokenFrontier.com

"There's energy in every one of Cheung's pages." - Greg McElhatton,
ComicBookResources.com

Can Steve Rogers, Iron Man and Ms. Marvel keep Wiccan from discovering
his true lineage? With a surprise appearance from Magneto, fans can't
miss Avengers: Children's Crusade #1 Second Printing Variant!
