    I'm done. What a disappointment. No monthly book will feature Janet. Of course.

    Does get points for She-Hulk being on the roster at least. The rest of the roster's alright. The big 3 of Cap/IM/Thor is a given, and Black Panther being on here will no doubt ride high on the success of the film. Carol is no surprise, and Ghost Rider and Doctor Strange seem like the odd ones out for me.

    I'm happy to see the Big3 together again. After that, the cast doesn't do much for me. The fact that this is the only Avengers title moving forward signifies a bit of streamlining to me.. which I think is good. ONE book though?

    It really does seem very drastic... I would think at least 2.

    Lineup looks pretty good, but why the hell do we have to have Avengers 1,000,000 included in the stories? Make a separate title for these losers if you have to, I'm really not interested.

    Same here. First time since Hickman.

    I like the roster. If I were going to do a tight lineup of the biggest names and best heroes, sorta "Justice League Big 7" style, this is the kind of roster I would pick. Except for the Rider, obviously. But you gotta have that odd man out.

    Plus Aaron has been killing it with Thor. I wasn't impressed with his Dr. Strange, and he's pushed the "Jane is a better Thor than Thor!" idea too hard lately, but overall I've enjoyed his work so this definitely gets a couple issues.

    It's a rather amusing snapshot of how much Marvel's character notoriety levels changed since 2005. Bendis pitched New Avengers as an Avengers book that would finally be a true Justice League counterpart because it ditched the B and C-listers in favor of characters like Wolverine and Spider-Man. Now we're at a point where many of the characters he dropped from the book when he took over (Black Panther, Scott Lang, Vision, Wasp, Scarlet Witch, Falcon and others) are much higher up in the food chain thanks to the movies.

    Yes to the Big3. It's nice to see T'Challa and Robbie in this. I might actually buy this since I'm a fan of at least five of the eight characters.
