Your Weekend Moment of Psychic Nosebleed Zen: Marvel Boy
June 29th, 2008
Here’s Vance Astrovik, then known as Marvel Boy, now known as Justice, showing that he’s got a problem with the psychic nosebleeds as well — not to mention a little psychic otorrhagia as well. (These panels are all from New Warriors #3 (first series), by Nicieza and Bagley.)
Justice has got to be one of the most milquetoast and boring of all superheroes. He’s the Chevy Cavalier of the super-hero set. Even Kurt Busiek couldn’t make him interesting.

That’s a shame, since he actually has a really cool origin story and tie to Marvel’s future heroes, the Guardians of the Galaxy.
Of course, the Guardians are sort of the Go-Bots to the DC’s Legion of Super-Heroes (Transformers).

Ouch. Justice is one of my favorite superheroes. I find him pretty complex – and while I never killed my father with my TK abilities – We share some childhood abuse issues that makes him a character that I certainly identify with more than say you know … Wolverine or Gambit.

Yes Busiek could make him interesting because he did
