    Default Young Avengers #1 *Preview*

    Legacy isn't a dirty word... but it's an irrelevant one. It's not important what our parents did. It matters what WE do. Someone has to save the world. You're someone. Do the math. The critically acclaimed team of Gillen/McKelvie/Wilson (with added Norton Sauce) decide to reinvent the teen superhero comic for the 21st century, uniting Wiccan, Hulkling and Hawkeye with Loki, Marvel Boy and Ms. America. No pressure. Young Avengers is as NOW! as the air in your lungs, and twice as vital. It's the book that knows Hyperbole is the BEST! THING! EVER!

    Wow, Jamie McKelvie is a Bollywood geek? Loving the "Sholay" poster on Noh-Varr's wall. Also, I am guessing he is swaying to "Be My Baby" by The Ronettes. Awesome sauce.

    No, he had to ask on twitter back in October. But other people are fond of Bollywood, and suggested Sholay.

    ah, and so another one of my anticipated marvel Now! titles arrives yet again!

    It has that refreshing new direction smell to it doesn't it?

    This should be a blast. I got a really good feeling about this.

    Anything where the preview is of a guy dancing in his undies to 60s music is a must buy for me.
    What is this, Horseville? Because I'm surrounded by naysayers.

    Oh. Still, Noh-Varr seems like a blast so far and I am digging everything between him and Kate. It is really surprising, I was looking forward to this because of Miss America Chavez and Kid Loki but now it looks like I will fall completely in love with Kate + Noh-Varr.

    Did you read the old YA material? I'm guessing you have not because you'd have loved Kate already if you had.
    The monster saved them all. And in their fear, they betrayed him. As they always have. As they always will.

    According to Hickman, the writers have to write their own solicits -- or at least he has to write the ones for New Avengers.

    Nope. Until last month I actually thought Kate was Asian. That's how little I knew about her.

    Very much looking forward to this. Have been missing Gillen's Loki dreadfully.

    Heh, I was thinking Gillen and Co. are serving some Noh-Varr eye candy.
