What I liked about the Young Avengers was their initial connection to Super Hero legacies. I tried to pick future recruits based on previous Avengers members, instead of just sticking random teen heroes like Hope or Toro on the team. Some of these are more of a stretch than others
Wasp (mother-son)
He's the only non-616 character on this list.
Crystal (both are Inhumans and elementals)
Swordsman (Weapons masters)
Namor, the Submariner (actual sidekick!)
Hercules (Olympians)
Machine Man (both are machines)
Black Panther
Black Panther
Black Widow (Spys) or Hulk (possible daughter)
Thor (Asgardians)
She Hulk (gamma powers/ green hair)
Tigra (Tigra was his mentor)
Living Lightning (similar powers, plus both are gay)
Beast (both have physical mutations)
Thing (appearance) or Beast (mutantness)
Ares (Father-Son)
Too bad he's dead.
Wolverine (clone)
Obviously.
Captain Britain (Alt-Reality Younger Version)
Hopefully he survives Avengers Arena. Doubtful though.
(UPDATE: He Dead.)
Luke Cage/ Iron Fist (successor)
Hulk (Alt Reality Daughter)
Captain Marvel (successor)
