Written by CHRIS ELIOPOULOS, JASON AARON, CHRIS YOST, CHRIS GIARRUSSO, ADAM WARREN, WYATT CENAC & BRIAN PATCHETT Art by JACOB CHABOT, RICHARD ISANOVE, JOH JAMES, CHRIS GIARRUSSO, TODD NAUCK & XURXO PENALTA Cover by DAVID WILLIAMS
Rejects, benchwarmers, lovable losers, and might-be Avengers...assemble! In the beloved tradition of Assistant Editors’ Month, we the staffers are sick and tired of our bosses telling nothing but Wolverine stories, Spider-Man stories, Captain America stories...and we’re taking matters into our own oddball hands! Little guys can be heroes, too...and when this motley crew of misfits gets their shot – in stories featuring Elsa Bloodstone, American Eagle, D-Man, the daughter of Galactus, Mini Marvel cake-eating Hawkeye, Candidate Luke Cage, and more – it could be the start of something big! Don’t miss this two-issue anthology of also-rans who might – just MIGHT – ascend to the A-list! (Fingers crossed. Really we’re just hoping this doesn’t get us fired.) 40 PGS.

BONUS REVIEW by JOHN ROBINSON
3 WORDS: CAKE-EATING HAWKEYE. It's the only reason you need to buy this comic and love it. Remember in the late 80's ASSISTANT EDITORS MONTH where all of MARVEL's assistant editors took over the main books and gave you wacky stories? This is just like that, except they didn't let them play with CAPTAIN AMERICA or SPIDER-MAN or HULK, it's an all B-String line-up with characters like D-MAN and AMERICAN EAGLE. And really, those stories are all mediocre to fair, but it's the MINI-MARVELS Hawkeye story that makes the admission worth while. It was my must read of the week! Enjoy!
I give it 9 out of 10 Grahams
