As empires from across the cosmos clash for supremacy, Hulkling and Wiccan (Wanda Maximoff\u2019s son, Billy) find themselves in need of assistance \u2014 that help potentially coming from none other than the Young Avengers.<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"608\" height=\"926\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Imperial - Marvel\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/screenshot-2025-11-01-at-8-30-21-am.png\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/screenshot-2025-11-01-at-8-30-21-am.png\"\/><br \/>\n        Courtesy of Marvel Comics<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"611\" height=\"940\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Imperial - Marvel\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/screenshot-2025-11-01-at-8-30-36-am.png\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/screenshot-2025-11-01-at-8-30-36-am.png\"\/><br \/>\n        Courtesy of Marvel Comics<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n                                        <strong>Writer<\/strong>: Jonathan Hickman\n                        <\/li>\n<li>\n                                        <strong>Artists<\/strong>: Iban Coello, Federico Vicentini, Federico Blee\n                        <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The thread spans from Imperial #3 to Imperial #4, after Wiccan is injured and Hulkling is no longer in power, and Wiccan uses his star-emblazened communicator to summon help from America Chavez, who shows up as he\u2019s bleeding out from a Skrull attack. By now, the ties that bind should begin leading your imagination to the very obvious and aforementioned: it seems only a matter of time now before the Young Avengers are together again in the Imperial series.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cRight behind you, America.\u201d &#8211; Wiccan<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The reunion of Wiccan, Hulkling and Chavez serves as the possible genesis event for the group\u2019s return, and one that could certainly usher in the appearance of other members of the superhero faction. At one point, it was a group that boasted a collection that included not only Wiccan, Hulkling and Chavez, but also Iron Lad, Kid Loki, Noh-Varr and Speed (whom Billy knows quite well); and the list doesn\u2019t stop there, with Hawkeye, Patriot, Prodigy, Stature and Vision on it as well.<\/p>\n<p>                        The MCU&#8217;s Been Quietly Building Toward Young Avengers<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"825\" height=\"413\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"the MCU's America Chavez, as depicted in Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness 2021\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/america-chavez-1.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/america-chavez-1.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n        America Chavez, as depicted in the MCU&#8217;s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in front of a cosmic background<\/p>\n<p>In other words, that\u2019s some serious firepower that could be headed to the Imperial series, but for good reason. The events that have transpired, and the aggressiveness of the Skrulls in their attempt to win the war, but it\u2019s been awhile since the Young Avengers all stepped onto the same battlefield together \u2014 their last appearance having been in 2013\u2019s Young Avengers series (Kieron Gillen, Jamie McKelvie) \u2014 more than a decade apart before being hinted at strongly in Imperial #4.<\/p>\n<p>And for anyone following the MCU, they\u2019ve seen Wiccan\u2019s reveal on Agatha: All Along after what transpired at Westview during Disney+\u2019s WandaVision (where Speed was hinted), America Chavez made her explosive debut as co-star alongside Dr. Strange and opposite Scarlet Witch in Dr Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and then there\u2019s the fact Kate Bishop has been making appearances since her first in the Hawkeye television series back in 2021; and most recently in Marvel Zombies.<\/p>\n<p>Things are lining up perfectly for the reintroduction of the Young Avengers and not simply on pull lists everywhere but also, maybe, on a screen near you, and it should serve as a nice dose of mouthwash to rinse the sour cinematic taste of The New Mutants from everyone&#8217;s palate. <\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"480\" height=\"720\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"03180383_poster_w780.jpg\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/03180383_poster_w780.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/03180383_poster_w780.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<dl>\n<p><dt>\n                                            <strong>Release Date<\/strong>\n                                        <\/dt>\n<dd>\n<p>\t\t\t\t2025 &#8211; 2025-00-00<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<p><dt>\n                                            <strong>Network<\/strong>\n                                        <\/dt>\n<dd>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDisney+<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<p><dt>\n                                            <strong>Showrunner<\/strong>\n                                        <\/dt>\n<dd>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKevin Feige<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<ul class=\"cast-tab-list\">\n<li class=\"cast-tab full-width\">\n                                                                                <img width=\"100\" height=\"130\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"instar52828007.jpg\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/instar52828007.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/instar52828007.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>David Harbour<\/p>\n<p>\n                                                    Alexei Shostakov \/ Red Guardian (voice)\n                                                <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"cast-tab full-width\">\n                                                                                <img width=\"100\" height=\"130\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"instar53780100.jpg\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/instar53780100.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/instar53780100.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Simu Liu<\/p>\n<p>\n                                                    Shang-Chi (voice)\n                                                <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>\n                                                                                                            <a href=\"https:\/\/disneyplus.bn5x.net\/c\/2233363\/564546\/9358?subId1=UUcbrUeUpU0&amp;subId2=ecbr&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.disneyplus.com%2Fbrowse%2Fentity-d274138a-7c29-4ddf-9ea2-2f9d3c1a24a0&amp;ourl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.disneyplus.com%2Fplay%2F9bc53e1d-6227-4b1f-9fee-a9ca8d536c52\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow sponsored\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n                                                                                                                                                                                    <img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"disney-plus.jpg\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/disney-plus.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/disney-plus.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                                                        <\/a>\n                                                                                                    <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A sad day for Marvel fans intersects with a good one.
