Formation of the New Avengers Assemble
In the aftermath of the ‘Blood Hunt’ saga, a fresh Avengers team is formed under the guidance of the veteran, Steve Rogers. Assembling a team that combines seasoned heroes with new blood, Rogers establishes a secondary squad based closer to Earth, taking up residence in the original Avengers mansion as they train and cohabitate, preparing to save the world from imminent dangers.
The team’s ranks include stalwarts such as Captain America, Wasp, Hawkeye (Clint Barton), Hercules, She-Hulk, Photon, and rising stars like Night-Thrasher, Lightning, Wonder Man, Shang-Chi, and Lightspeed from Power Pack. Issue #1 kicks off with a scenario where Steve, Wasp, Photon, and Shang-Chi must thwart the sinister plans of the Red Skull’s progeny, all while Hawkeye plays host to a team poker game.
“Now is the perfect time for unity!” exclaims Steve Orlando. “Avengers Assemble is a rally cry to bring together a lineup of Avengers’s most celebrated icons. The series promises a return to classic comics storytelling, with each issue jam-packed with a full, explosive story within twenty tight-knit pages.”
