YOUTH follows the turbulent lives of two teenage boys that run away from their small minded town in hopes of making it to California. Frank and River, two queer teens that fall for one another leave their troubled homes behind and drive untl they run out of gas. They soon come across other misfit teens, who welcome them into their group. The fun continues for this new gang of friends, as raging hormones are mixed with liquor and drugs. Soon tempers are flying and before they know it, they are being pursued by the cops. The madness continues, just when they think they have escaped with their lives - a cosmic blast changes these teens' lives forever!<\/span><\/p>\nWell every good superhero story has to start somewhere, usually the individuals are formed out of some kind of tragedy and that is exactly what has happened to this group of misfits. Speaking of, there are many similarities between this story and that of the UK sitcom Misfits. Both groups of wayward teens were struck with unusual powers, neither of which knew how best to use them and instead went instead for personal gain. In the later half of this volume, we see the horrifying consequences when one such superpowered individual gets hammered and starts throwing punches at civilians.<\/span><\/p>\n![\"youthvol1_1\"](\"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/youthvol1_1-674x1024.jpg\")

This series is just filled with countless twists and turns, there is never a calm moment. Its as though you got the cast of the TV show Misfits and put them in charge of establishing the X-Men - but first they have to fund it all through any means necessary. These teens are more like anti-heroes and are much more akin to the likes of Deadpool's personality. Look out for yourself and only those in your immediate circle. This is far from the end of YOUTH, as there is already a Season Two being published, which I will also be reviewing.<\/span><\/p>\nYOUTH was co created by author Curt Pires and illustrator Alex Diotto. Curt has had a very successful career as of late, as five out of his eight creator owned properties are now in development for TV and film, including YOUTH which has been licensed for Amazon Prime Video. The artwork is quite striking in a way that kind of reminds me of the rough sketches that are used for a storyboard during filming so everyone has an idea of how it will be shot. Some of the panels are quite crude at times, especially when it comes to facial expressions but it still manages to get the point & emotions across to the reader. This series doesn't need to rely on pretty drawings and perfect outlines, the story is more than enough to carry this through. Where it excels is in the scenarios it depicts, the chaos, car chases, drug filled parties and the horny teens making out. It is honestly a wild ride for a comic and its no surprise that it has been picked up for a live action series.<\/span><\/p>\n![\"youthvol1_2\"](\"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/youthvol1_2-674x1024.jpg\")

YOUTH is a modern coming of age series that follows a bunch of misfit teens that have been forgotten both by society and their families. We follow their lives as they go from parties, to drugs, alcohol and car chases.

Adam and Madison find themselves on the run, after they are left fighting for their lives against Madisons\u2019 mothers\u2019 \u2018scumbag boyfriend\u2019. As they make their escape, knowing they would be locked up if the authorities were ever to find them. Their car is suddenly struck by a flying purple comet. Just like before, upon touching this ominous object the teens are gifted with immense powers. From super strength to invulnerability, however its not long before a wannabe Nick Fury tracks them down. Can our original gang of super powered YOUTHs from Volume 1 save the day, or are they all destined to be incinerated?<\/span><\/p>\nSeason Two kicks off with a new set of characters, as we meet a trio of outcast teens from troubled backgrounds. Following on with the similar trend of broken families, drug use, abandonment and hormonal teens, season two of YOUTHs follows a very similar trend to what we saw in Volume 1. All of which is taking place not long after Volume 1 ended. It\u2019s certainly full of action, violence, sex driven teens and bullying. The most intriguing character of them all however, has to be our very own knock-off Nick Fury.<\/span><\/p>\n![\"youthseason2_1\"](\"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/youthseason2_1-674x1024.jpg\")

This high ranking, special forces agent is on the constant prowl of tracking down these super-powered teens. Given just a short amount of time, he even acquired weapons that were capable of taking down these anti-hero Youths. Not only that, but he even bragged about taking down Gods. Who does the guy think he is and where is his spin off series? Apart from this guy, we have to return to our original duo of Frank and River. If you want to see more of these two, then you are just going to have to read the very last issue. There are far too many spoilers, to even mention what happens there.<\/span><\/p>\nAs it stands, YOUTH was a pretty interesting series. It had taken similar elements and plots from the likes of Marvel and Misfits. However it certainly was a lot more violent and bloody than what I was expecting, it would also make a good TV series. Which luckily for us, it is currently in the works with backing from Amazon Prime Video. Given enough advertising and promotion, this could be the next big thing for people that have enjoyed The Boys and Umbrella Academy. However I could easily see this comic series expanding, but as it stands I think this is the last we will see of them until the TV series hits screens.<\/span><\/p>\n![\"youthseason2_2\"](\"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/youthseason2_2-674x1024.jpg\")

YOUTH was co created by author Curt Pires and illustrator Alex Diotto. Curt has had a very successful career as of late, as five out of his eight creator owned properties are now in development for TV and film, including YOUTH which has been licensed for Amazon Prime Video. The artwork is quite striking in a way that kind of reminds me of the rough sketches that are used for a storyboard during filming so everyone has an idea of how it will be shot. Some of the panels are quite crude at times, especially when it comes to facial expressions but it still manages to get the point & emotions across to the reader. This series doesn\u2019t need to rely on pretty drawings and perfect outlines, the story is more than enough to carry this through. Where it excels is in the scenarios it depicts, the chaos, car chases, drug filled parties, horny teens making out and exploiting heads!
