About this Collection

This collection ties into Marvel's 2011 'Fear Itself' event, following the students and faculty of Avengers Academy as they grapple with the chaos unleashed by the Serpent's hammers. Featuring characters like Hazmat, Reptil, Veil, and Finesse, alongside mentors such as Hank Pym, Tigra, and Quicksilver, the story tests the young heroes' resolve when the world's mightiest are corrupted. Written by Christos Gage, it collects issues #15-20 of the series and a tie-in to the main event.

In "Disaster Response," the Avengers Academy students find themselves on the front lines when a massive Nazi robot, unleashed by the villain Sin, attacks Washington DC—leaving them to defend the city while their teachers are away. With Tigra leading the charge, the young heroes must step up in a high-stakes crisis that tests their training and resolve. Written by Christos Gage and illustrated by Tom Raney, with inks by Scott Hanna and Andrew Hennessy, colors by Jeromy Cox, and letters by Joe Caramagna, the issue features a striking cover by Billy Tan.
