In, Infinity Heist, we watch as a bunch of B-List super villains try to prove that they deserve to be A-Listers by pulling off one of the greatest heists of all time. Stealing Iron Man's armor. But with a few team complications in the way, will the team forever be known as a bunch of wannabe's? Or will they actually be able to prove their way to the top?
Story Summary
In issue number 3 of Infinity: Heist we pick with the team of B-Listers right as they have broken into Avengers Tower and learn that they're not alone and some super heroes were left on duty while the rest of them went into space to fight Thanos' army. After noticing the few hereos left, the villain team stays quiet and finds the hall of armor. After breaking into the vault, Spymaster begins transporting the suits to the anonymous buyer. As he is transporting the suits the rest of the team asks how they are getting to where the buyer is, Spymaster replies by transporting only himself so that he can get all the money for himself. After a quick run in with the heroes left on duty, the rest of the team is able to transport themselves with the help of Titanium Man to the buyers location. The book then ends with us learning that the buyer is actually the person who has been pretending to be Titanium Man, Captain Atlas.
Review of the Book
Upon hearing about this mini series I knew that it was just another ploy to get readers money. After reading the first issue, I completely agreed but after reading issue 2 and 3 I can say I've actually enjoyed this short series. For a super villain heist book it's a lot of fun and it's really fun to see how just like in the hero world, villains aspire to be on the A-List versus the "B-List." This book has been something different than what some people might have anticipated and I think this book deserves a little bit more credit then it's been getting. It's just a fun book. The art is this books is good but again, nothing amazing. It's just good art that fits into the Marvel Universe. It really doesn't do anything to further a long the story of Infinity, but I think the writers knew it wasn't going to while going into this book, so it's just an overall enjoyable read, especially if you like heist books, or villain books.
Pros, Cons, & Rating
Pros: Fun story, interesting characters, good art
Cons: Money ploy, taking to long to finish, the writing could be better at times
Rating: 7/10. Good book and fun while reading it
