Today we’re talking to pop-culture critic and writer, Anthony Oliveira (he/him), about one of his favorite Marvel super-teams; The Young Avengers! As a fan of the series who would later go on to actually WRITE FOR IT, Anthony gives us incredible insights on queer representation in the Marvel universe, dealing with heroic but problematic authority figures, and what these scrappy young heroes may look like in the MCU. Plus, we talk about the responsibility and opportunity of creating work for your younger self.
