dramaturgist 's review for:
Young Avengers, Volume 1: Style > Substance
by Kieron Gillen
Y'ALL THIS IS DEFINITELY ONE OF MARVEl'S BETTER COMICS, I LOVED IT SO MUCH AND IT WAS BETTER THAN EXPECTED!! reasons to read this series:
- diversity! lots and lots of it. the main characters (wiccan and hulkling) are both gay and in an adorable relationship, there's lots of poc characters and other queer characters
- it's funny! it made me laugh out loud many times. honestly, the best comics are the ones that make you laugh.
- the art is BEAUTIFUL. some of the character designs of these characters ,, i haven't liked them much. but these are all so well done! mckelvie did an awesome job.
- the plot... will grow on you. this is the first volume, so it seems a little stretched out at first, but everything makes sense. eventually. but kieron gillen is one of my favourite marvel writers, and i loved his arc in journey of mystery. (which you should also read.)
- kid loki!! i'd be lying if i said that one of the main reasons i picked up this book was not because of loki. i just,,, i love him so much. and kid loki is! amazing! he also has a love for bacon that i understand and can relate to.
tl;dr: if you're a fan of the marvel comics, definitely read this series! it's full of quips and action and good art. if you've just seen the movies, still give it a try! you might be a bit confused at times, but hey, google it up.
