Kate Bishop

Joining Echo and the Young Avengers for Helicarrier guard duty will be the sharpshooter Kate Bishop. As we mentioned in last week's blog, America Chavez, Ms. Marvel, and (the unbeatable) Squirrel Girl create a tenacious 5-person War Defense team that is sure to make Nick Fury proud during Alliance War. Now, let's dig into Kate Bishop's role and the updates coming to her teammates.

Kate Bishop grew up in a wealthy Manhattan family to a father who was a powerful publishing magnate.
