Marvel's The Avengers Prelude Comics  
Hi @ all!

Apart from a few silly comments here and there this is my first post in this lovely community.
*hands out cookies*

Even though this community came to be thanks to the movieverse I thought I try my luck with a question about comics here anyway. I've just checked Amazon for Avengers comicbooks and came across a series called "The Avengers Prelude". Since it's only 4 volumes (or 1 if I buy the German one) it sounds like a great series to start with if I want to get into Avengers comicbooks. After all, there are so many issues and series that I wouldn't even know where to start. However as the "Prelude"-series is more or less a movie tie-in, I'm wondering if it's worth buying or if I should spend my money on the "real" comic series. Has anyone read "The Avengers Prelude"? Is the series any good?


@ Mods: I hope I tagged this post right.

Good to know that "Road to Marvel's The Avengers" isn't worth buying. I had thought about getting that as well. I'll follow your recommendation and buy "The Avengers Prelude". From what I've heard about it, it seems to be a nice addition to the movie and thus probably the right Avengers graphic novel to start with. Thanks a lot. :)

Now, there's another Prelude book that strictly revolves around Natasha. The story was interesting since it focused just on Natasha and her handler, Coulson. However, the artwork was a little...well, Coulson didn't look like Coulson and Natasha suddenly had D cups...
