I'm a little curious, with all the Avenger talk, which titles people plan on reading. I don't remember all the creative teams, and planned line-ups, so maybe some-one can give me a hand:

Avengers
writer: Bendis
artist: JRJR


lineup:
Cap
Iron Man
Thor
Hawkeye
Spider-woman

Secret Avengers
writer: Brubaker
artist: Deodato

lineup:
???
Speculate Away...

New New Avengers
writer: Bendis
artist: Immonen

lineup:
Luke Cage
Jewel(?)
Spider-Man
Wolverine
Thing

Avengers Initiative
writer: ???
artist: ???

lineup:
???

I'll be getting them all for now. The only unknown is the Initiative (if that's still going to be a title). Unless the creative team or concept really stinks, I'll at least give it a whirl.
 
hold up, Spiderman is on TWO lineups?
 
I'll get them all, still trying to decide if I want to actually spend money on New, even though I do like the idea of Jessica and Thing on New.
 
Right now i'm only interested in Secret Avengers. Tho JrjR on a Avengers title does sound promising. It's just that i really wanna know the full lineups first.
 
I would be iffy on Secret, but it has a great creative line-up with Brubaker and Deodato.
 
1. Secret Avengers is a must especially if Steve Rogers is there.
2. Avengers I'll try mostly for JRJR and the Big Three (even if it's Bucky)
3. Avengers Academy/Initiative I'll get if Slott's on it.
4. New New Avengers I'll walk right past every four weeks.
 
Avengers: Definite buy for at least an arc. Yes, it's Bendis, but he said he's trying to do something different from his New Avengers take, so I'll give him a chance. Plus, I absolutely love JR Jr.'s art and, y'know, Thor.

Secret Avengers: Maybe. Love Brubaker, not a fan of Deodato, but the most important thing is what the team's all about. If it's an X-Force-esque black ops division of the Avengers, I will probably not buy it because I don't think that's what the Avengers should be about.

Avengers Academy: Maybe. Depends entirely on the creative team and who at least a few of the key players are, although I'd be willing to buy it even if I'm not necessarily attached to any of the characters as long as the creative team is really good. Gage writing would do the trick, since he's been kicking ass on Avengers: The Initiative so far.

New Avengers: Definite no-buy. I like Immonen, but it's Bendis writing a bunch of characters I couldn't care less about (excluding the Thing, but I can read him in Hickman's excellent Fantastic Four). The title implies that it's going to be more of the same of Bendis' post-Disassembled New Avengers stuff, which I never liked. Absolutely no incentive to pick it up, so I won't.
 
Avengers and Secret Avengers: for sure.

New Avengers: not sure yet, even though the Thing is on the team.
 
In the voting Avengers and SA are already leaving the other 2 in the dust.
 
Kind of funny that Avengers Academy is ahead of New Avengers and we haven't even heard anything about the former yet. :funny:

:lmao: What does that tell you?

It's only 1 vote, but I'm sure it'll be more. We should do another vote, New New Avengers against something we all know will never come out.:cwink:
 
buying secret avengers due to creative team. Not buying Avengers due to JrJr. Absolutely hate his artwork.

Undecided on the others (though Thing has me interested, I hope they give him something other than blue speedo with a 4 for him to wear).
 
Why? The main visual associated with the Thing is his rocky orange ass. Put him in a bunch of clothing and he's just a big dude. Gotta show off the orange.
 
I hated when Invisible Woman and Mr Fantastic joined the Avengers and still wore their FF costumes
 
Thank God it was for only 5 or 6 issues, that went downhill fast. Especially went Cap sulked in a corner because Reed saved the day against Super-Nova and didn't run his plan by Steve. To be fair, Avengers was being pulled in 3 different directions by a bunch of writer/editors at that time.
 
I have a feeling Secret Avengers will contain a lot of Secret Warriors so I'll def check it out. The only one I'm not buying is New

I'm not saying put him in a full body stocking or something. I'm saying let the man wear some pants (like the movie Thing had), maybe even some pants that aren't blue, and take off the friggin "4" symbol when he's working with the avengers.

Sorry, that should have said Hawkeye on Avengers.

They actually said Spider-Man & Wolverine were on the main Avengers, too. JRJR said he was doing a regular title with Spidey in it and there was a picture of them together, Spidey swinging from Thor's hammer.

Well, since I'm a fan of Webhead, looks like I'll be getting Avengers & New Avengers.
 
I've loved everything Bru has done since joining Marvel so Secret Avengers has me intrigued.Depending on the Roster(Which I'm sure Steve will be on.) and the price it's the only one I'm interested in.
 
I'll buy Secret Avengers because of the creative team.

Probably not any of the others.
 
Quesada said today there are more Avengers announcements coming, including where Slott is heading. Sounds like Avengers Academy with Gage. If that's true I'll be there definitely.

I just don't think Slott should be co-writing a book with anyone. I'm sure you can make the same argument about Gage. But Slott deserves another high profile writing gig not co-writing an Avengers book that'll be considered the 3rd or 4th book down the totem.

What? Wolverine can wear his X but Ben can't wear his 4?



:thing: :thing: :thing:
 
Wolverine needs to stop wearing the X, it makes no sense anymore. Just go back to the big red belt buckle.
