Reading time: 1 minute
Marvel was teasing something big was coming on The Colbert Report tonight, but fans had no idea that there was different news set to break even earlier. Say hello your brand new team of up-and-coming Avengers with Marvel's Avengers NOW! team. After Jonathan Hickman's Avengers run was slated to come to an end, we expected some big changes for the franchise, but this group of second stringers taking over the team adds a whole new perspective to the comic series. In addition to the all new Superior Iron Man comic that was announced, we also received confirmation that Sam Wilson is going to take over the Captain America mantle in All-New Captain America. The new line-up includes the following new heroes;
Medusa from the Inhumans, Avenger and X-Men Scarlet Witch, The Superior Iron Man, the new Thor, Angela (confirming Angela is not Thor), Doctor Strange, Ant-Man, Inferno from the Inhuman title, the new Deathlok, and Bucky Barnes.
Superior Iron Man is written by Tom Taylor, and drawn by Yildiray Cinar. All-New Captain America is written by Rick Remender, and drawn by Stuart Immonen. The aforementioned title ships in the fall. Avengers NOW! is launching in 2015. Superior Iron Man has no release date attached.
Entertainment Weekly broke the story this evening.
