A new book for our podcast, and we are coming in at the end of the story. This is the second volume of the Young Avengers, and it is a hoot. A fun and intelligent romp with a fascinating group of characters. And then, some members of Power Pack show up. Ok. let's try and untangle this
So, what is going on here? A bad decision was made thanks to some nefarious maneuvers by kid Loki. That resulted in an entity name Mother to swoop in and start to make the lives of the Young Avengers miserable. Now lovers are questioning relationships, adults are being jerks, and the kids are not all right.
Let us focus in on the bone head that is Noh-Varr. Dude is seeing Kate Bishop. He should be honored that she is giving him the time of day and not using his stupid head for target practice. This guy has the nerve to have a wondering eye.
We are just going to pretend that it is Noh-Varr's face that America Chavez is punching.....ahhhhhh
And then there is Loki, the cause of this and many other messes. What is his story? Why is he a kid? Why is he being all nice and stuff? why does he have to be like that? Does he just need a hug? Why is he always blowing up?
This time, he just blew himself up into a more mature looking adult Of course we know that he only looks the part, and that he does not act mature. That would be too much to ask for.
After all of the changing and posturing, it always ends up that Loki will just be Loki. The more things change, the more they stay the same. I could write more of these altruisms, but I think I am done for now.
What wonders await us next month? Stay tuned dear listeners.....

Now we are in the thick of it all. New betrayals, broken love, angst, agony, achny....It is all here and it is all teen drama all the time. But will they succeed, will they untangle the knots Loki has tied, ill their playlists be appreciated? Who knows.
Fashion is really important, especially when you are going to try to kill someone. Trust me about this. I have had to do this ritual multiple times....at least in my head.
When you prep for murder, you must make sure to brag and show off as well. Some people would have you believe that you should go for quiet and stealthy when you are about to bring the murder. Those people are wrong. Dial up the color and speakers and make a show.
You should also bring friends when you go a killing. First off, they will help you bury the bodies. Always a plus. Additionally, they bring other skills to the table, and usually there is someone that has a deck of cards. A good way to kill time while waiting to....kill.
Now, there is a limit to the number of people that you should bring with you on this excursion. Four to five is a good number. Multiple dozens are too much. First of all, a tour bus is very obvious when you are driving around. Trust me.
It is up to you and your mob about how loud you want to be when you go taking on the innocent. Yelling and throwing flashy lights around is a choice, and could be good camo when you are at an EDM concert.
Let's face it, you are not going to go murdering. You are probably going to go fighting. In that case, have fun, but make sure you are stylin.

It's the final BATTLE. Dee dee dee deeeeee.......Ok. you get the joke. We are in the thick of it as the Young Avengers take on Mother and her cohort of evil Ex's. We have drama, we have chaos, we have god powers. We do not have cake, and that makes me sad. But we do have an emotional speech by Alex Power so.....thumbs up!
Before we begin, you should have a seat and get comfortable. I would suggest a comfortable chair, like a lazy boy or a bean bag chair. Maybe your favorite seat in your car or bus as you are listening to the podcast. Maybe a pole, if that is your thing. Do not sit on someone's boyfriend....unless that is their thing.
Now that you are comfortable, I need you to look into my eyes. Are you looking, good. You will listen to me, you will obey me, you will follow my orders. You must tell all your friends about this podcast. You will promote our podcast. Obey me.
Do not worry about feeling alone. There are many, many people under my control. So many people. some are green, some have wings. some are giant heads with metal spider legs. I control them all.
My control is so complete that I control all pages and all images. BWHAHAHAHAHA!!! I control all....look at me!!!
Wait. Why is everyone fighting. I just said that I was in charge. Why is everyone so mad and angry. It is like you all are annoyed that I took over your minds. Jeez.
Fine. Let's change the tone and try a little bit of love and peace. Let's go and look at the young couple and their cute teenage romance. Ahhh....romance.
Ok. Enough of that junk. I just want violence. So, let's go and head for the uprights.
oooooh.....That hurts.

Time to put on that party dress, and the comfortable yet stylish loafers. Make the hair look nice and slather on the anti-perspirant. We are going dancing and partying and we are going to ring in the new year with some style. It is the final two issues of this series. Feels like we just arrived.
There ain't no party, like a Young Avengers Party, cause a Young Avengers Party don't stop.....
Of course, you need to dress up for a party. When I dress up, I wear clothes. This seems to make most people happy. Plus, while I am very warm most of the time, I find that being naked outdoors makes me cold.
You can dress as a super hero. You should always dress for the party you want to be at, not the party that you are at. This is why Jeff usually dresses like a princess.
Now you are dressed, and so you go to the party, and you get a drink. And then someone makes you drop your drink. That's it....party over...fight start. But that is just me.
Of course, before you fight, you should take off any clothing that will interfere with your fight. If you are wearing a mask for a masquerade, you probably need to remove it. Unless you look fly. Then keep it on.
Finally, no party is complete without a kiss. At least that is what I have been told. I have never been invited to those parties. I just go to fight parties. I am not allowed to go to parties anymore.
Next issue, we will get the conclusion for the series. Are....you....READY!!!!!
