I'd like to take issue with the article's stance that no new sidekicks have been introduced recently, unless they're jokes or parodies. Wonder Girl, Speedy, Superboy, Impulse/ Kid Flash, and I thought there was a new Aquagirl or something in the Aquaman books. Hell, even Deathstroke has a kid sidekick now.



I think the article stated that no new teen sidekicks have been created unless they filled in for an previously created sidekick position. A point that you just pretty much reenforced.

And as far as Captain America not having a sidekick since Bucky, I have two words for that: Bull-fucking-shit. He surrounds himself with more ham-n-eggers than anybody. Falcon, D-Man, Nomad, Diamondback, Battlestar. Granted, most of these haven't exactly been teenagers, but I think my point is still valid.



No, they're not teenagers. They were grown men, which pretty much has no bearing against an arguement of how ridiculous the concept of a teen sidekick is in this day and age.

It tends to put you immediately at a disadvantage and IMO is a sign of true weakness.
