The New New Avengers

Spidey is vying with Wolvie for most teams status ( I can hear him complaining,"...and Astonishing, Uncanny, and X-Force all count as one, furball!!!")

In the case of Astonishing and Uncanny that's absolutely true. Same characters.
 
Well, that puts the end to New being the new West Coast based team

Cage being on the team should've been a clue that wasn't happening. Thunderbolts are based in a prison in NY.
 
Yeah, I don't get the Spidey reveal, either. The only thing I can think of for this team is there a team that doesn't want to follow the main Avenger teams leads because maybe they still don't fully trust them, yet, and still want to remain separate. Maybe Spidey as a joint member is a way of keeping the two teams connected as a show of good faith on both sides.

I don't know, just throwing out ideas.

Trust issues between Cage and the likes of Bucky and Thor? That'd be odd. They're pretty much the exact kind of guys he would've been pals with around Civil War time.

I was thinking more Iron Man, actually. But, like I said, just kind of throwing out ideas.

Cage would be a world-class jerk if he couldn't forgive Tony after all the crap Tony's done to himself to protect the other heroes.

I think you can forgive someone but still not totally trust them. I don't know, I don't think it's completely and totally unfeasible for Cage to be weary of him after Civil War and all the stuff post-Civil War. If they did this, and Spidey was allowed to be part of both, it wouldn't be that there isn't completely distrust, just weariness.

Plus, Luke Cage never backs down. With a chain
 
Maybe the 2 teams will be connected, yet split up on different missions? As in 2 squads? Like, Cap, Thor, Iron Man and Spider Woman will battle Kang in space, while Spidey, Cage, Hawkeye and Wolverine will stay on planet and deal with the Hood? Like in Scooby Doo. "You guys go this way, and we'll go this way". That would be perfect for Bendis!! The first arc in New New and Avengers would be the same story, but told from 2 teams' different perspectives. I could totally see him trying to pull that off. That way, his 5 issue arc is stretched to 10 issues in 2 different books. Less work for Bendy, more $$ from us suckers, who are gonna buy both books anyway.

Marvel wins, fans lose. Which to Marvel = win/win :awesome:
 
New Avengers should be filled with guys that are on at least 3 books. :up:
 
They'd have to include Thor in New Avengers to sucker me in, which thankfully looks unlikely.
 
BRIANMBENDIS heed my words those who love to have comics funness. the team of NA is not the same roster as it was before. there will be some fabulous returning champions, as seen already, but there are big surprises in store!!
 
With Cap's Brooklyn hideout destroyed in NA, I wonder if they're all gonna move back into Avengers Tower?

Or Avengers Mansion. With the Dark Reign ending, how can they NOT rebuild the Mansion?
 
Infinite Avengers Mansion, damn it! It's the most awesomest HQ ever and it could totally use more people! :argh:

I'm sure I won't care about every last one. :awesome:

The same man who said this would be the biggest shakeup of the Avengers titles since dissembled :o
 
At this point the only way they could surprise me with the roster is if Batman was on the team. Who else is there that could possibly shock us?

Isn't it? A lot of the classic Avengers players are back and Bendis at least seems to be implying that it'll be a return to the Avengers' roots.

The Avengers roots dont include 3 or more teams, some of which have the same exact members. In a Heroic age, why would their need to be a secret avengers? Slots mighty team were what the avengers were.
 
Confused about the restarting of New Avengers. I thought NA was over, that's why we were having the New Avengers Finale.

So...I would surmise the franchise would turn out to be...

Avengers- the trinity plus Wolvy/Spidey, basically New Avengers at the beginning but with Thor and now tackling world class problems like Kang; Bendis doing his Bay impression

Secret Avengers- centered around SHIELD leader Steve Rogers (get it? Steve Rogers? SHIELD?) ...... centered around SHIELD leader Steve Rogers and his board of SHIELD deputy leaders (for example one of the profiles looked like Beast and one looked like War Machine, Hank could be his Science Leader and War Machine his...war leader) with Nohvarr as his personal bodyguard. This could be like a cross between the Knauff's excellent Iron Man: Director of SHIELD run and Bru's vintage Cap run.

New Avengers- Cage, Spidey, Iron Fist, Daredevil and a bunch of New York superheroes. Grounded and streetlevel. Bendis doing his Bendis impression.

Avengers Academy- rumored but I'd see why they would think it would fit the franchise. Love Gage/McKone if that's the writer/art team.

Young Avengers- maxi-series cause Heinberg is busy.
 
Shouldn't this thread be called the New New NEW Avengers?
 
How so? You have the New Avengers and now you have the Newer New Avengers.

I think the roster will make more sense when they drop all the secrets who is and isn't on the team. I think the first set was a "I am an avenger in general" and these next sets are "I am this kind of avenger". Basically they just doing the x-men for of the avengers.Astonishing, Uncanny, New Mutants, and Legacy...all the same damn team but with a different title(and don't you dare go all different roster on me).
