Review: A good start but some rocky execution

Teen Superhero is the origin story for a new superhero universe. Though somewhat unpolished it finds its feet halfway through and keeps the intensity till the end.My only real complaint is stylistic--the first person diary model. It's not a bad technique but it falls short here. Too often the main character, Axel, goes on existential rabbit trails that detract from action and flow.Also I felt that some of the powers were either weirdly put together or not thought out fully but never edited to fix them. For example a Magneto like character who can also control minds but suggestion early on but not later?Other then that this was a solid story on par with big corporate hero series like Tiger & Bunny. Great ideas, good story telling, just needs some editing.
