Avengers Arena Vol.2 – Game On

Description

** Insert Paul’s Rant here ** ok, first off. this entire series,  Avengers Arena. You should buy and read. And here is why. The entire series is inspired by Battle Royale, the Japanese story that was jacked, had a love story smashed into it and turned into hunger games in the US.  Following years and years after the registration act, The Avengers have still been maintaining a school of superheroes of tomorrow. The Villain Arcade builds a murder island where he abducts the whole class of students, outfits them with bombs. Anyone tries to get off the island *boom* tamper with bomb *boom* 24hrs pass and nobody dies *boom*. you get the idea. And the craziest part 90% of the characters are complete unknowns and can go at any time.  So, none of that they can’t kill so-and-so because they are too important stuff. This is a highly suggested sleeper series you won’t want to miss**end rant**
