Things to know
Collecting rule: Read Heinberg/Cheung first, then the retained Gillen/McKelvie omnibus.
- The Heinberg omnibus is large because it includes Civil War, Secret Invasion, Dark Reign, and Siege branches.
- Young Avengers Presents #6 is also collected in Hawkeye by Fraction & Aja and should be read only once.
- Background from the wider Avengers events is helpful but optional.
