The search for the truth yields more reversals and revelations than the team can handle! And finally, discover the secret history of the Young Avengers when Jessica Jones and Kat Farrell investigate the kids' origins for a special issue of THE PULSE. Who were they and what were their lives like before they met Iron Lad? And what is the future of the team without him? Collects YOUNG AVENGERS #7-12 and the YOUNG AVENGERS SPECIAL. 184 PGS./Rated T+.
