    HEROES REBORN: YOUNG SQUADRON #1
    JIM ZUB (W) • STEVEN CUMMINGS (A) • COVER BY KARL KERSCHL
    The Squadron Supreme of America have taken root in the hearts and minds of all, but none more so than a trio of youthful champions who call themselves the Young Squadron!
    Kid Spectrum (Sam Alexander), Girl Power (Kamala Khan) and the all-new Falcon (Miles Morales) are here to fight for true, justice and the American flag...or are they?
    Beneath the flashy facade of colorful adventure, something grim is stirring and Deadpool is determined to bring it to light.
    In Heroes Reborn, Marvel's legacy heroes find different mentors than those they have now, each a member of the Squadron Supreme of America that rises up to fill the vacuum created by the lack of Avengers. Instead of Peter Parker taking Miles Morales under his wing as Spider-Man, Miles trains under the Falcon's literal wings and takes over the mantle after Nighthawks' original partner dies. Kamala Khan doesn't look up to Captain Marvel but becomes the super-warrior Girl Power after obtaining an artifact from Utopia, the homeland of Power Princess. And rather than donning his father's Nova helmet, the cosmically-gifted hero Sam Alexander follows in Doctor Spectrum's example as Kid Spectrum. Together, they are the Young Squadron, out to prove their value as heroes, but Deadpool seeks to show them a harsher reality than the one they believe.

    So the Teen Trinity basically become sidekicks?

    Nova as the sidekick for the GL analogue makes sense.

    I get where they're going with Kamala and Power Princess but "Girl Power" doesn't work as well as "Power Girl." Sounds like she's also an expy of the Wonder Girls.

    Miles has barely interacted with Sam Wilson and somehow he ends up becoming The Falcon instead of Sam's actual protege's. Interesting that he's still a hero, unlike Peter. Is Sam dead?

    The costumes are nice and it's good to see Zub writing these kids again.

    Curious. So does no Avengers mean nobody who has ever been an Avenger? Because Miles no longer being Spider-Man would seemingly indicate Peter Parker wasn't the original Spider-Man in this continuity either.

    No, he’s Nighthawk’s protege. It’s just he’s taken the name Falcon in this reality. It’s more Miles having to do with Nighthawk, than having Miles to do with Sam Wilson.

    This reality has the Squadron Supreme be the main heroes.

    Maybe Sam still was the OG Falcon in this world or maybe Sam is Nighthawk some how..

    Yeah the press release mentions that the original Falcon (presumably Sam Wilson) was Nighthawk's partner and died and Miles takes up the mantle.

    Ah. So Nova don't exist in this new reality ? It's a One-shot ? And more important...

    Why ? Why this proposition ? They're not enough comics ?

    They're still giving Kamala a tie to the Inhumans, of a sort. Since Earth-712's Zarda and the rest of the Utopians are that reality's Inhumans but without Terrigenesis, if the HR Zarda is also of the Kree-experimented Utopians Kamala's powers are therefore Inhuman/Utopian derived.

    So is Deadpool going to straight up be the Deathstroke analog in this scenario?

    They're probably also just giving each kid a closer link to their respective Squadron mentor.

    It seems like Peter was never Spider-Man.

    I get that, just that it feels weird for Miles to be Falcon given how little he's associated with Sam Wilson.

    So he's Tim Drake?

    I wonder if the writers were conscious of that.

    There’s something funny about the Falcon mantle being DC equivalent to Robin

    Jim Zub was clearly inspired by the NTT when writing his Champions run, so that tracks.
