Superhero comics were conceived by two teenagers. Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster were young men when they created Superman, with the newly born superhero genre quickly becoming a favorite amongst the children of the ‘30s and ‘40s. With the Silver Age beginning in 1959, superheroes made their comeback, and the authors of said comics knew perfectly how to market to kids.Since then, comics have strangely fallen out of favor with the younger crowd. Despite still following the adventures of kid characters like Spider-Man and Superman, the audience starts at older teens, primarily targeting adults as a result of the speculator market. Most teenagers don’t even read superhero stories as much as they used to, a tragic truth that may coincide with the lack of kids who enjoy reading. However, there are plenty of superhero tales out there that kids can love, from Marvel, DC, and beyond.A brief, eight-issue series, Thor: The Mighty Avenger followed the origin of the God of Thunder after his banishment from Asgard. The series sought to retell his early days as a young man, having him build up relationships with characters like Ant-Man, Captain America, and Namor, all the while battling giant dragons and saving damsels. The series was the perfect gateway drug into not just Thor, but the Silver Age of Marvel, all with a modern coat of paint.
