*Groans*

I really want to check out the upcoming Young Avengers series but I really hope they don't kick me in the shins by having Kate Bishop getting it on with Noh-Varr. She was meant for Eli :(

(can I have one OTP that doesn't get trampled, retconned, broken or otherwise disposed of ?)

So after a little research...

As much as I like Gillen and McKelvie and absolutely love the Young Avengers, I think I might have to avoid the relaunch. The thought of Kate Bishop/Hawkeye having a one night stand with Noh-Varr is kind of a heavy blow right now.

I can't figure out why this fictional pairing would matter to me so much. I'm really too old for this OTP shit but it's still breaking my heart over here. Children's Crusade stung enough as it is but this feels like a nutshot. I think I need to just go lie down and watch cartoons or something...

R.I.P. Patriot and Hawkeye / Eli and Kate
