A lot of it is set-up, obviously, but Skottie Young does a great job introducing the characters, teasing their future arcs, setting up the whole school scenario, all the while bringing us some laughs and genuinely exciting, touching and even scary moments! 5 stars for the story too. I honestly can't believe I'm giving a Humberto Ramos art job a 5 star rating but I flippin' well am! Nice work! I don't know what's happened but the guy has seriously leveled up on this book! His work here is less cartoony, less graffiti-inspired, more detailed, better composed, better rendered with much better story-telling skills. You see, I've never liked Ramos' artwork I absolutely hated his Spidey stuff. When this book was first solicited I thought 'Nice concept, creating a Marvel universe version of Hogwarts with Doc Strange in the Dumbledore role but it's a shame Humberto Ramos is drawing it'. JOYGASM! Seriously, I can't remember the last time I had this much fun reading a comicbook.
