    Recently we saw the new line-up of the Avengers. Yesterday we saw Luke Cage proclaiming to be a "New" Avenger when we all thought he was going to be leading the Thunderbolts (perhaps he'll do both). Today, Marvel has revealed another "New" Avenger. This guy was already slated to be on the regular Avengers along Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and the others. 

    No Caption Provided

    He's taking "responsibility for his actions"? Does this include being on the regular Avengers as well as this New Avengers team? The New Avengers book will be out in June by Brian Michael Bendis and Stuart Immonen.
     
    We'll have to wait to see what this means. When you think about it, we didn't see these kind of promos for Spider-Man or Wolverine, who are supposed to be on the regular Avengers, based on a cover image released. Perhaps we all jumped the gun in assuming they'd be on the regular Avengers. If we're going with the thinking that the "New" Avengers will be less in the spotlight than the regular Avengers (but not as covert as the Secret Avengers), it makes sense that Spidey and Wolverine wouldn't be on the premiere team, given their reputations.

    maybe the avengers will be the consisting Thunderbolt-Avengers and the new Avengers the original Line-up, seeing Luke cage in it makes sense to me since he is the leader of the new thunderbolts.

    This gives me a headache.   
    I actually love Bendis, for the most part, but why end the title just to bring it back a few months later? Are they starting the numbering over too? Agh.  
    Hopefully whatever explanation they give for it will be satisfactory... I guess we'll see...

    I'm thinking the 'Avengers' are the full time Avenger types like Cap and Hawkeye while the New Avengers are the ones who are more part time. People who have other jobs or responsibilities so they don't live in a mansion together or anything but gather to help each other out.

    Maybe the lineup is not based soley on who's on the cover... 
     
    I think the Avengers lineup is: 
    Captain America (Bucky) 
    Iron Man 
    Thor 
    Spider-Woman 
    Hawkeye
     
     
    and the New Avenger lineup so far is: 
    Luke Cage and Spider-Man 
     
    for all we know Spider-Man and Wolverine are guest appearing on Avengers #1 and that's it!

    Ugh, you got to be kidding me.  What happened to having just one Avenger's book like Marvel promised?  I've despised Dark Reign, Siege has been a pile of garbage, but I was actually getting excited for Heroic Age.  A big part of that was having 5 of Marvel's biggest characters all on the same team.  Having Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, Wolverine, and Spider-Man all on the same team sounded amazing.  But it's looking more and more like the same bullshit Marvel's been feeding us with all these teams.

    so basically they're just canceling Mighty Avengers and restarting New Avengers...along with Avengers and Secret Avengers.  That's so lame.  Mighty Avengers was the best Avenger title.  Here's hoping for an "I am a Mighty Avenger" teaser with USAgent.

    They never promised one avenger book and it wouldn't make any sense for them to do so.

    It doesn't say Luke will be leading, in fact with him running the Thunderbolts program I can see that being the reason he's not the New Avengers leader. As for Spider-Man he's not a leader type, been a loner too long. Can work with a team but not lead one effectively. 
     
    Is there anyone else hoping that if Clint has any say he'll make Songbird and Mach-4 (though I think its 5 now) Avengers?

    i thought the whole point of the heroic age was to take the avengers down to one team but since then 4 teams of avengers have been announced, the avengers, the secret avengers, avengers academy and now new avengers, so basically theyre gonna just keep doing the same thing and im willing to bet the next "new" avenger will be wolverine

    Yeah not the biggest fan of Stature in a grown up team but other Young Avengers stuck in obscurity. I guess she was just there to give Vision a reason to be on the team.

    why did they release this now as a " reveal " after theyve already shown him on
    both covers of Avengers #1, and he was named in the team roster in several
    interviews. i'm not for or against Herioc Age, in fact for the most part there doesnt 
    seem to be much change, just the next linear part of progression, ill have to see when 
    i get to that road, but this whole advertising campaign Marvel is doing with the " Guess if 
    you can?" thing, where the reveal end up not being a big deal anyways is lame.

    @sora_thekey: your speculation makes the most logical sense......i mean when that image came out with the trio, spider-man, and wolverine, it was said that they were part of the Avengers team, but didn't say which Avengers team, primary or new.

    This reminds me of when DC rebooted JLA in the eighties. Who would be in it, and who wouldn't be... Eventually they got Captain Marvel, Batman, Black Canary, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, Elongated Man, Booster Gold, Blue Beetle and the bunch...

    Okay, I'm really not so worried, I love the current New Avengers book (just wish they would be fighting people other then The Hood every arc...) but like I said about the Luke Cage promo, I want to hear Bendis' reason for having this Avengers team along side the other two, maybe this is like West Coast Avengers?

    Too many avengers teams! What is the point of Avengers: Earth's mightiest heroes........and another team of heroes, slightly less mighty.....and er, another team of avengers that are a secret.....and er...uh...ummm......another team of avengers who are young and learning to be mighty??!?!?  
     
    One avengers team is enough. Think of another name for these teams/books. Avengers: Auxilary, Avengers: International, The Cosmic Avengers, etc...

     
    A little creativity goes a long way. I hate that they are ending New Avengers...just to restart New Avengers?  Just keep the series going OR find a new name for the team!  Gah!!

    @Web_Spinner: 
    One team... Avengers. No more, no less, I agree..Why bring all them popular characters in one team, half of them usually are solo players. It's ridiculous to think that'll actually work.
