Original Sins #3 (HERE BE SPOILERS!)

Ugh.  This series sucks.  Don't buy it.

We're supposed to believe that the Young Avengers are so naive that they buy the Hood's story that he only turned to crime to help pay his mom's hospital bills and that he's trying to save the drug addicts so that he can be her "little Mister Fantastic."  Yup.  Sure.  He's absolutely going to use those secrets that he collects for good.  Sure he is.  I'm sure that we're going to learn that Prodigy installed some sort of fail-safe into his colander-based Cerebro to make sure that the Hood can't misuse this information, but I have absolutely no interest in watching that development present itself.

Given the fact that the other stories in this issue involve the discovery that JJJ, Jr. once wrote an article praising Spider-Man as a great entertainer during his wrestling career and some Inhuman whose ancestors physically manifest themselves on his body as talking heads, I have no choice but to give this issue one star, something that still feels like a gift.
