We do a Young Avengers double-take by reading the first five issues of the 2012 run by Keiron Gillen and Jamie McKelvy. In this comic, a hodge-podge group of heroes bands together to fend off an attack from an interdimensional monster. That one of them summoned. Because of melodrama. Even so, some of these characters are great and the amazing artwork by McKelvie makes this title a joy to read. For more information on past or future shows, visit www.AtomicPoweredSuperCast.com!

In the wake of the disbanding of the Avengers, a group of young kids comes together to try and fill there shoes. Only problem: one of them is actually a mortal enemy of the Avengers. We talk about the writer’s cojones, the emergence of Kate Bishop, and why Marvel doesn’t have sidekicks. For more information on past or future shows, visit www.AtomicPoweredSuperCast.com!
