Young Avengers, Volume 1: Style > Substance by Kieron Gillen
4.0
Cheesy at times, and heartbreaking at others, the Young Avengers reboot is a series that I've now eagerly begun. I love every character - while some have not been as developed as others (Kate, Noh-Varr), there's no sense that they don't fit in with the rest of the crew, that they band of misfits are puzzle pieces.
The humor was good, and the relationships between the characters felt natural (mainly Billy + Teddy, Kate + Noh-Varr). The characters work off of each other easily, and no one feels like a prop.
I liked that this beginning arc had them fighting against their parents - the very persons whom teenagers struggle to obey. A slightly heavy-handed metaphor, but nonetheless interesting to see carried out.
There were also some unexpectedly complex moments, such asBilly's attempted suicide, and Loki's self-conflict .
