This fun book did have more style than substance!
Style:
Six interesting Young Avengers come together to combat an evil that Wiccan inadvertently summons into their world.
Some of the spread layouts were awesome! The two page layout of Noh-Varr and Kate escaping and then again of Noh-Varr coming to the rescue at the night club (with a numbered key!) were very creative.
Variant art and book cover were great.
When Loki breaks the fourth wall by handing out a flyer to the reader. The hero application is amusing and informative.
Wiccan’s and Hulking’s relationship.
MOTHER
(Lack of) Substance:
Marvel Boy has been yet again recast? This time a Kree alien named Noh-Varr, who suddenly is a good guy when he previously had been against the Young Avengers and Runaways during the Civil War epic. Kate’s cool with that?
The explanation of Speed’s whereabouts was extremely lame. In fact I thought Noh-Varr was Speed on first glance.
I can’t keep up with the Loki incarnations. This time he’s a young mischievous teen called Kid Loki.
I always wonder when a group shot is shown, why an author/illustrator picks the characters they do. When they go to the Avenger’s mansion they talk to Scarlet Witch (that makes sense as she is Wiccan’s kinda mom), Captain America, Havok, Rogue, Thor and Wolverine. Why them? Just curious.
The “parents” issue was convoluted and didn’t make a lot of sense.
Miss America seemed grumpy instead of mysterious and knowledgeable.
The inconsistencies between this story and other Young Avenger stories.
This was the start of an enjoyable but light Marvel series for the Young Avengers, that I feel would be appealing towards teen readers.

Yes, why them?
Always regard Havok, Rogue and especially Wolverine as X-Men, not Avengers

You’re right- most of the heroes shown were X-Men and should be at the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning!

OH Dear , didn’t know this existed and it’s a pure rip off of the amazing Young Justice … Marvel better stop with these DC copies now 😠 . I’m actually happy that this wasn’t successful , that’s just sad on my part . Nice review though as usual 🙌🙌

I thought this series was fun, but it’s far from a classic. It was a short series, I’m assuming it wasn’t popular enough to continue past three volumes.
