Product Description:
In Sidekicks, in the wake of Avengers Disassembled, a mysterious new group of teen super heroes appears. But who are they? Where did they come from? And what right do they have to call themselves the Young Avengers? And in Family Matters, the newly reconfigured Young Avengers prepare to make their public debut - but first they have to face a threat more powerful than Kang the Conqueror, more dangerous than Mr. Hyde and more cunning than the Masters of Evil: their parents. For these brand-new super heroes, fighting super villains is child's play compared to maintaining their alter egos! Plus: The Young Avengers meet a familiar-looking teenage super human who just may be key to their uncovering the truth about Wiccan's parentage and secret origin. Meanwhile, Hulkling's quest to discover the exact nature of his tie to the Avengers is interrupted when the Young Avengers finds themselves at war with one of the oldest and most powerful alien races in the Marvel Universe. And finally, discover the secret history of the Young Avengers when Jessica Jones and Kat Farrell investigate the kids' origins for a special issue of The Pulse. Who were they and what were their lives like before they met Iron Lad? And what is the future of the team without him? Collecting Young Avengers #1-12 and Young Avengers Special.

Re-read both volumes of Allan Heinberg's "Young Avengers" this afternoon. It's been a long time since I was so emotionally affected by comics. Most comics published today rely very heavily on cynicism (yes, Mark Millar - I'm talking to you!) but the romanticism, soap opera and respect for continuity that used to characterize the House of Ideas are sorely missed. Not so this series. Heinberg's from TV - he wrote The Naked Truth, Sex And The City, Gilmore Girls and The O.C. He shares an office with ... Read More

This is an incredibly enjoyable series of stories about an excellent cast of characters, but I'm going to focus on giving information on this particular collection and its contents:
The book contains issues #1-12 of Young Avengers, plus Young Avengers Special Edition #1, in which Jessica Jones interviews the members of the team (this story is even placed in the right chronological order, between issue #8 and issue #9). These thirteen issues comprise the whole "first season" of Young ... Read More

I just read Alan Heinberg's Young Avengers for, oh, I'd say the millionth time. I have to tell you it gets better and richer and with every reading.
The great thing about YA is how brilliantly Heinberg confounds your expectations as to what this book is going to be. When you first hear about the characters he introduces, they don't sound too promising. Hulkling? Iron Lad? A young Vision? It has the potential to be the worst kind of derivative drivel.
But Heinberg ... Read More

If you queer and your here and your geekier than your sheer, Buy this book. This is the first 12 issues of Allen Heinberg's Young Avengers and its done brilliantly. Buy this now, you wont regret it. And it has the best new faces and characters Marvel has to offer in a long LONG time.

The idea for Young Avengers alone could have been a complete disaster. Veteran television writer Allan Heinberg however injects so much imagination and innovation into Young Avengers though, that the final result is something that is surprisingly spectacular, and Heinberg's love of Marvel lore is apparent here as well. In the wake of Brian Michael Bendis' Avengers Disassembled arc, a mysterious team of young superhumans, dubbed the Young Avengers by the media, make their presence felt. There is ... Read More
