Marvel Super Hero Squad #8

This comic reminds me that Marvel is bothering to reach out to an audience that doesn't read comics. I know this isn't for adults but I read this crap anyway just so I could b#tch about it. First of all Falcon is only on the team because of affirmative action.He's the token.He's the Luke Cage of the Superhero Squad.Also if you read this comic you'll realize how insignificant he is to the team.And how he could be be useful..all he can do is fly.What is with this fractals nonsense? It's like Inuyasha with those stupid jewel hards. Apparently these fractals are pieces of some ridiculous sword that the "squaddies" are trying to keep away from Dr.Doom. Why isn't this called the Avengers? Are kids too stupid now to pronounce it? It's clearly the Avengers.There are very few "squaddies" that weren't Avengers. Is that name supposed to make it cute or more cool for kids? Also if you can't tell by the cover..there's a corny obesity theme in this book. 
 
If you have kids.Don't buy this for them.Let them watch the cartoon.Don't encourage them to ready crappy comics.Wait until they can comprehend good comics and give them those. Buy them some Wizard magazines.They'll look at the pictures and like the characters they see.Also to all who aren't reading this.Just realize that the longer this exists there are good comics that have been cancelled or yet to be made and this is wasting a spot on Marvel's to-do list.
