Dark Avengers Returns This November

After the events of Siege, Norman Osborn was taken to an extreme high security maximum prison that was secret to the rest of the world. But now he's out of that prison and back in the real world with a new group of Dark Avengers.

New Avengers #18 will be the issue that shows off Osborn's new team, but what does he have planned for the world and it's heroes? Surely he's going to want some kind of revenge for the unfair treatment of being in prison without a trial.  Whatever is going on in Osborn's head, we'll find out this November.

The New Dark Avengers are pretty secretive for now, but it looks like Skaar is in the mix and possibly Bullseye or Barney Barton as the bow wielder, but I'm not too sure who the bald guy could be.

New Avengers Annual #1 Preview

The New Avengers Annual is coming up soon and it looks like Marvel has something pretty good planned for us as they introduce a new super power group called "the Revengers" that will be led by Simon Williams, a.k.a. Wonder Man. His newly formed team will go head to head with the New Avengers this September.

I'm glad they are finally addressing Wonder Man's dislike for the Avengers during the Heroic Age, and I'm excited to see what he'll bring to the table. And I'm also loving his team - Anti-Venom I love and I'm glad to see Atlas back since Thunderbolts was the last thing he was in (as far as I can remember at least) and having the original Goliath's son might bring some emotional baggage to the fight with the Avengers.

New Avengers Gains The Daredevil With Osborn Returning

After Daredevil's meltdown in Hell's Kitchen and his journey of to find himself within 4 issues, Matt Murdock will be making a return to New York as a bonafied New Avengers member. Along with Daredevil's return, Norman Osborn shows his face to the world after being improperly imprisoned due to his attack on Asgard.

You've got the return of a hero and the return of a villain; a perfect way to balance out each other. I am not too sure if this means this is the end of Black Panther being the Man Without Fear, I hope it isn't 'cause I am absolutely loving Black Panther's new change in Hell's Kitchen. I'm sure that Murdock will be too busy hanging with his new team and will continue leaving Panther do his own thing.

Another interesting thing is the whole Norman Osborn coming back in the New Avengers comic, since Spider-Man is a member of the New Avengers, how will he take the news of Osborn's return? Whatever will be going on, we will be able to find out in New Avengers #19.1.

I just realized though, New Avengers will be filled with a lot of street leveled heroes, something Bendis is excellent at.
