In which we finally publish the voice messages we've gotten through Anchor and answer some questions we got on social media. Thanks to everyone who submitted a question or comment!

Episode 17: Mailbag!

From Bucky Barnes to Wally West, there's a lot of superheroes who got into the game at an early age. In this episode, we explore some of the youngest superheroes in the business, including solo acts and teams of teenage characters.

We talk about the first adventure of the finest family in the superhero business! Look forward to next week as well, where we discuss the recent sequel.

We're Whitney and Will, and we're here to yell about superheroes. New episodes Mondays. Contact: yellingaboutsuperheroes@gmail.com
