Young Avengers, Volume 1: Style > Substance by Kieron Gillen

4.0

---

I think this was the first Marvel I ever began, when I didn't even know who Kate Bishop was or that "kree" wasn't a sound. Now I came back to it and fully enjoyed it: It is so good. It ticks all the Representation Matters boxes (lgtb, women, race), the art is exceptional and the script is great, funny and well written. It does something very difficult sometimes when you have a lot of characters in a single volume, which you are -kinda- introducing for the first time: they don't get lost in you, each and everyone have well rounded full personalities you instantly connect with. What a joy! Perhaps a little too teenager-y for me, but I mean... it's "young" avengers, it's what it is.
