The original 2013 release was a 22-page PDF (CBZ/CBR variants appeared later). File size: approximately 187 MB (uncompressed for print-quality text).
Written by and illustrated by Mark Brooks , the story focuses on Sam Alexander (Nova) as he struggles with a homework assignment: "What is a hero?". Seeking answers, Sam visits the Avengers' headquarters to interview Earth's Mightiest Heroes.
The issue serves as a "bridge" or introductory piece for younger readers, tying into the era of the Avengers Assemble Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H.
