I think this is the most recent title I've featured so far, and there's a good reason for this: the Young Avengers is one of the few bright spots on the bland canvas that is 21st century Marvel Comics (or indeed, 21st century superhero books as a whole). It captures the spirit of "my" Marvel Comics - anti-establishment heroes who strive to do the right thing, regardless of the personal consequences on them; heroes who don't just bludgeon their foes into unconsciousness, but use their brains to win battles instead; in short, heroes who children might actually aspire to be.
Plus, any comic book that uses Kang the Conquerer as the central antagonist, and makes him seem cool in the process, is doing well, in my estimation.
