Agreed about Moore and Immonen, but not Whedon. Weadon's run wasn't as good as Vaghun's run was, but he still got the characters much better then most other writers that tried to tackle the kids, he developed them, and introduced a new one with a great deal of potential. The main problem I had with his run is it tried to do too much at one time, and therefore a lot of the character development was either badly rushed (Victor falling for another girl would have been a fine story line, if only it had room to breath) or happened off screen (I would have liked to see Chase go to the past to see Gert, you know?).
No, as far as I'm concerned, it was Moore that made them into a generic Teen superhero book - except he forgot the drama part and it became a bland generic Teen superhero book.
The Molly one shot, by the way, was written by Chris Yost, who also did the Secret Invasion special guest-starring two of the Young Avengers. And yes, I thought he would have been great on the books as well.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
