A mysterious group of young heroes have appeared in the wake of great tragedy. Who are these teenaged do-gooders and what right do they have to call themselves the Young Avengers?!
Young Avengers issue #1 introduces us to the titular team. It does so in a roundabout manner with Daily Bugle telling us their deeds, seeing Jessica Jones, Iron Man & Captain America... Before we actually see the team on page.
This was my 1st ever Marvel comics & I got by through context clues. I can call myself a MCU fan & I do know the lore somewhat so atleast I'm not a total noob lol. I read this in one go!
For now, the team has Iron Lad, Patriot, Hulking & Asgardian (gonna become Wiccan) as we see their low-key disastrous attempt at being superheroes. They truly are such teens with their banters 😂. We haven't seen much glimpse of their personalities but it's obvious Lad got weight of future & Patriot is serious. I liked to see Kate Bishop too!
I started this as I was curious about how Wic & Hulking start their romance, but it's obvious Iron Lad's Kang Storyline is a main focus. As we didn't get that in the movies, I am curious how it goes in the comics! Especially as this ended up with our older guys confronting Lad & his reveal 👀.
I do heavily prefer the art-style of the japanese mangas that started me on comic journey BUT I'll stay here for the story.
I wasn't sure I would like this newer comic, sort of reminded me of the X-Babies or some other gimic to sell books, but when I finally read it I felt bad that I had not done it until now, This group is for real and I really like the characters and the direction the book started to take with the connection of Kang and Iron Lad being from a far distant future. I think I am hooked already. This was a good read.
It's always so hard to read marvel and DC books because of the flip flopping you have to do between the other comics I'm so glad I finally found all of these though Some of my favorite superheroes. And it's always a good read
Look at me branching out. I quite liked this issue. I think it did a great job at introducing these characters whilst also keeping them wrapped up in mystery. There’s also a great twist at the end that got me excited to read more.
HOLY SH-OHMY I WANT MORE. I don't want to rush the series, though, because it's SO awesome. I want it to last forever. It's just SO, SO GOOD. I can feel it will only get better.
