5. Young Avengers - Kieron Gillen and James McKelvie
With titles like
New Avengers,
Secret Avengers and
Uncanny Avengers being at the front of everyone's minds when it comes to Avengers titles, one that seems to slip under a lot of peoples radars is Kieron Gillen's
Young Avengers. This series collects some of the most interesting of the younger characters in the Marvel Universe in one series that offers a lot of laugh out loud humor, but isn't short of drama either; as is to be expected with any coming-of-age story. McKelvie's also proves to be more astonishing with every issue, bringing to life this surreal but gorgeous world packed with adventure and excitement. Whether or not
Young Avengers grabs you like I did may depend on your age, but Gillen's witty writing will no doubt have you falling in love with these characters within the first couple of issues no matter what.
