And here’s the official synopsis/ solicit for the book

THE UNSTOPPABLE JUSTIN JIN! Just before his mysterious death, Justin’s father sent a package to his estranged son containing a fragment of a crimson gem..the gem of Cyttorak! How did it end up in this family’s hands? What does Cyttorak want with a sweet baker’s boy from Vancouver? And can Doctor Strange help Justin sort out these magical shenanigans before he turns into the instrument of Cyttorak’s rage?!

So apparently Kid Juggernaut first debuted in a Marvel Voices Infinity Comic and is actually Justin Jin. The book was written by Emily Kim with artists Minkyu Jung and Peter Nguyen. He is also apparently the “grandson of the original Juggernaut” and was given a small shard of the Cyttorak Gem, the same gem that powers up the current Juggernaut Cain Marko who is also working with Cyclops in his Alaskan team of X-Men.

In addition to his explosive origin story detailing how the Juggernaut’s power impacted his family line, Justin can be found alongside fellow heroes-in-training in the hit Avengers Academy: Marvel’s Voices “Infinity Comic” on Marvel Unlimited, written by his co-creator Anthony Oliveira, and will be featured in the current run of New Champions – a promising start for one of Marvel’s latest rising stars.
