One of Stephen King’s most remarkable gifts as a writer has long been his ability to capture the experience of childhood and create realistic young characters – from the Losers Club in IT, Jack Sawyer in The Talisman, to the protagonists in “The Body” (the inspiration for Rob Reiner’s Stand By Me).
As such, it would be amazing to see him take on a Young Avengers arc – making this an entry different than all of the others pitched in this article because it’s less about a specific character and more a team concept.
King clearly has an affinity for writing stories about super powered kids, having previously introduced us to Carrie’s Carrie White, Firestarter’s Andy McGee, The Shining’s Danny Torrance, Doctor Sleep’s Abra Stone, and The Institute’s Luke Ellis, and it would be amazing to see him tackle that kind of legacy paired with the incredible legacy of heroes in the Marvel Universe.
