I knew Nico wasn't read, she had the staff in hand and cast a spell right before her HP bar went to zero!

I'm throughly confused...has anyone read this comic and found out how Arcade has almost god-like powers? Surprised to see Nico from The Runaways in this!

this comic is stupid. the fact none of the avengers are aware these kids are missing is complete bullshit.

Are the Battle Royale people okay with this blatant rip-off?

This is more like Mojo World than anything I've seen from Arcade.

Arcade has complete control over the island enviroment, meaning for instance, he can make himself fly by controlling the gravity in the area that he is in.

Which I actually thought was pretty clever, so if he's off the island, he's still a regular guy.

As for no one being aware the kids are missing, that is being covered in the issue directly after this one.

The comic is actually really good. I understand people being turned off by the premise but in comic books characters die. Then come back. And die again.

As Nico's return demonstrates right here.

Ohh thank god. I was gonna be pissed if they left Nico dead. Her, X and Hazmat are they only one's i really care about in here since freakin Darkhawk pulled a douche and dissapeared leaving his freakin raptor crystal behind.

I like this comic. Battle Royale definitely inspired it. And they made homage to it with the first issue's cover. There already was an issue which explained Arcade is not about power. He's about control. He's the Game Master.
