Young Avengers Presents: Stature #5 (2008)

6 days ago 10

I like that these “Young Avengers Presents” issues aren’t just origin stories or character introductions.  Each issue has tried to move the characters forward.  

This issue finds Stature having a mental breakdown after a battle with Growing Man nearly killed her stepfather, who was caught in the crossfire.

Her team helps her work through her complicated feelings about her stepfather, her estrangement from her mother, and the loss of her (not really) dead father, and her own insecurities so that in the end she is able to reconcile with her mother.

We don’t often get issues that are so psychologically deep. Nice job.
