Finesse, the young polymath wants to know as much as possible about the Avengers and their history as possible to better herself. And she is prepared to blackmail Quicksilver to achieve her ends. Will that succeed? First, the only interesting character here, besides the older Avengers is Finesse. She’s interesting and not a redundant heroine who will probably cease to be in a few year. I’m hoping she turns into a major villainess or attempt to. However, he angle was already explored in the Justice Society with the character of King Chimera, an equally smart young kid who wanted to get as much knowledge as possible out of the older heroes. Yet, here, she’s looking for specific information on Magneto and the Brotherhood of evil mutants. As if there was something to learn by being evil. She should just move in with the X-Men and be done with it! I like the visuals in this story. They are very strong. I wasn’t sure about whether to keep this series in my pull list, but I want o see what Finesse is up to next.
