Newsarama teases November Avenger titles!

1st of all this Secret Avengers variant is awesome and the issue seems hilarious aswell:

2nd ooh i really hope this means Bucky is Alive, oh and loving the cover aswell!

Lastly the new Avengers line-up revealed?:

Vision is back and oh my god Batman joins the Avengers?! Hell Kitchen's guardian on Avengers?! So cool!

Oh wait haha, i just noticed! Hawkeye's costume has been Ultimized.

EDIT: So nomore Rulk nor Thor on Avengers?

I feel mixed on this roster. I'm not surprised by the lack of Rulk on account that the Fear Itself tie-in to Avengers kinda said that Rulk is gone. I love that Ms. Marvel is on the Avengers instead of New Avengers. I'm not bothered by the lack of Hulk and Thor because they'll obviously be back in time when the Avengers movie comes out. And despite what some people may say, Spider-Man has earned his place on the Avengers.

As for the ones that I don't like, I'm not liking the current direction of Black Panther and I would rather have Daredevil on the team than Black Panther if they want an urban vigilante on the team. Still don't care for Spider-Woman and I still find it redundant to have Spider-Man and Spider-Woman on the same team even though they are barely related. Wolverine needs to go.

I don't know about Vision. I'm hoping it's the original Vision. It would be great to have him back.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

With Vision being back on the team, I hope the YAs get to keep theirs

 

[bored]

It makes perfect sense for Black Panther to be on the team. Yeah, he's filling an "urban vigilante" role right now, but he's a long-time Avenger. I'm also happy to see Vision and Ms. Marvel on the team. If not for Wolverine, this would seem like the most legit line-up Bendis has ever written.

Also, Hawkeye's going to go back to his classic outfit a few months after the movie comes out, at the latest. I guarantee you this.

 

[runawayboulder]

Man, f**k that Hawkeye costume! I hope and pray that that's the original Vision on the team. With him, Panther and Carol....I might come back aboard......5% chance. I just love how Logan is nice and smallish in the background!

 

[runawayboulder]

Oh, and Bucky isn't back. The solicit clearly states this is a 50's Winter Soldier/Widow story.

 

[Anubis]

yeah but the solicit says that the narrator reveal will be a shocker and that is whats leading people to think its buck.

 

[Themanofbat]

Who the heck is that flying guy with the gun?

 

[Iron_Stark]

Who the heck is that flying guy with the gun?

Marvel Boy/Noh Varr, if I'm not mistaken.





I hope the line up from the movie, (Cap, IM, Thor, Hulk, BW and Hawkeye) is the line up we get by the time the movie comes out. Maybe then I'd start buying the Avengers book again.

But that's a big maybe cause I'm pretty sure Bendis would still be writing it.

I'd rather have Marvel retire the Black Panther character for a little while.

 

[runawayboulder]

Panther's cool when he's on the Avengers though.

Dude, if anything, i'm willing to bet they changed his costume BECAUSE of the movie. If people respond well to it, this'll probably be Hawkeye's new permanent costume for a while. Call it sacrilege but I kinda dig it. I was never a big fan of his classic costume, especially the mask.

 

[Specter313]

Marvel Boy/Noh Varr, if I'm not mistaken.

Now going by the name Protector.

 

[Anubis]

Man, Genis needs to come back and take up the Captain Marvel mantle up again.

 

[moraldeficiency]

Something about that poster reminded me a lot of the Avengers cartoon. But that's really only a good thing.

 

[steintym]

I wouldn't mind if Noh Varr / Protector were left off the team. So far, he really hasn't done much for me, not really crazy about the character.

I also don't like the new Hawkeye costume, but I guess we should have seen it coming.

 

[runawayboulder]

Yeah, I miss Genis. He was supposed to be an Avenger (along with Songbird) in the future back when Busiek was handling things. It was a possible future from Avengers Forever but from what I recall they actually wanted to do it. It sucks that it never happened.

I'm sorry that outfit for Hawkeye is a load of crap. I understand they want to base the movie outfit on the Ultimate one so it works on film but this is lame. I'd rather see the brown Heroes Reborn outfit than that thing.

Keep the Ultimate line separate for the folks with no taste please. Don't subject the normal fans to that poison.

Oh, I know why they changed it. I'm just saying, once the movie's been out and had its period of hype, they'll go back to his old costume that well know and most of us love.

I can deal with the change, given that in mind. It's not like Hawkeye hasn't had awful costumes before (seriously, he rocked an honest-to-God miniskirt for a while). I'm more concerned with the fact that such a great line-up (plus Wolverine) is still being written by Bendis.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I'm not a fan of either of that roster's ladies, Hawkeye's costume sucks, and Wolverine is still a constant blemish on the team simply by being there. But other than that, that's not a bad roster. I'm guessing the Vision there is Vision Jr., which isn't as cool as the original Vision coming back, but it's still okay.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Shouldn't Avengers: The Children's Crusade be done by the time the new Avengers roster comes out? Perhaps the Scarlet Witch brings back the original Vision the way she brought back Hawkeye.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Maybe. That would be cool.

 

[bored]

That would require Bendis reading and respecting the continuity established by another writer.

 

[Drz]

New Avengers #16 teaser: Enter Daredevil!

 

[kguillou]

I would love to see an Avengers lineup akin to the one from the cartoon: Cap, Ironman, Thor, Hulk, Black Panther, Wasp, Antman and hawkeye. Maybe add in Ms Marvel for the ladies. Thats a badass lineup right there.

Don't get my hopes up.

 

[steintym]

I would love to see the Hulk back on the roster again and be an active member.
