What's Averno?
I've been hearing about it everywhere, but I still haven't figured out what it is. I remembered a lot of CBers were crazy about it, so can someone please give me the basic rundown?
It's a group of stories, musicals, etc. from Marvel about witches. I'm not sure if it is age-appropriate for Chatterbox or not, but since there's been other mention of it, I'm posting this.

Hello! I know a ton about Averno (I'm actually pretty active in the Averno fandom), so I can answer this!
Averno is a transmedia franchise, encompassing musicals, webcomics, podcasts, short films, etc. It is not actually from Marvel, but it is commonly described as like the Marvel universe, but with musicals (and more) about gay witches. All of the stories take place in and around the fictional small town of Averno, Virginia, and they're tied together by common themes and locations, not any particular characters-- though some characters are in multiple pieces of media.
I'm not going to overload you with All The Details, but if you have more questions, feel free to ask me!
Averno itself is not inherently inappropriate at all. Some of the media does mention heavy topics, so proceed with caution, especially if you're on the younger end. But the whole point of Averno is that it's inclusive and welcoming, so there should be something for everyone.
Thank you, Kitten, for this explanation.
