Avengers Academy Is Very Underrated and Marvel Should Do Something With The Kids Whether They Get Adpated In The MCU or Have An Animated Series Based Off Them

Other than Reptil (who found popularity with younger fans), X-23 (who is criticized for being a “Baby Wolverine”), and White Tiger (who has enough fans for Marvel to keep using her). The rest of the students such as Finesse, Hazmat, Mettle (my least favorite, his appearance is a bit unsettling, he looks like a Red Skull bot that got in an accident), Thunderstrike, and Veil.

They’re cool, yes, I know, Thunderstrike is a spoiled brat and I guess Finesse can be annoying at times. But they’re enjoyable and I believe Finesse could have autism, she’ll be great to appeal to fans who have autism, developmental disabilities, and even mental disabilities because they have a superhero like themselves they can relate to.

They need more attention, putting them in the MCU might be hard because kids don’t stay kids forever, soon the actors will grow up and Marvel will have to scramble to find more actors to replace the aged ones or just let the characters grow up with the actors. Or to combat the aging, just make an animated series about them.

They would be very fun to adapt to put in the MCU or in a cartoon!

This was a criminally underrated comic run. I could see a superhero academy show, with the comic book series twist, being a good show to watch.

Also, you should read the partial sequel Avengers Arena, you may enjoy it

True, and if they go that route, maybe they can age them down to elementary school-aged children since Reptil already appeals to kids. But it’s done in a way where adults can even enjoy the show, just superpowered kids doing kid things but learning how to be the superheroes of tomorrow.

And yes, maybe I’ll check it out if I can find it. (I mostly read the comics online)

IIRC DC is doing this, unless it's been scrapped.

Odds are yes, with WB scrapping $2B in projects

Worse is that after they scrapped it, the characters for the most part disappeared. There were at least 3 characters that should have gone on to sort of be promoted to bigger books.

True, it’s sad when Marvel throws perfectly good heroes away.
