    Default Avengers Inc. by Al Ewing and Leonard Kirk!!!

    Wowee

    aveninc2023001_cov.jpg

    Her name is Janet Van Dyne. She’s a hero. She’s a celebrity. She’s hunting a killer. His name is Victor Shade. He’s a villain. He’s an enigma. He just got killed. And together, they’re out to solve every mystery in the Marvel Universe...starting with their own.

    "AVENGERS INC. takes the beating, buzzing heart of the original Avengers, teams her up with an undead mystery man with an identity so secret even he doesn't know it, and sends them both out to solve the most amazing, fantastic and uncanny whodunnits the Marvel Universe has to offer!” Ewing explained. “It's kind of a classic 'will-they-won't-they' crime-solving partnership—or it would be if the 'will-they' in question was 'save the world from...' Well, that'd be telling. See you in September!"

    "I am unsure what can be said of AVENGERS INC. without spoiling anything for the readers. I can say this is a fun and intriguing take on some familiar characters that leans more into detective skills over super strength, wit rather than eye beams and cunning instead of small, genetically mutated, furry creatures," Kirk added. "Al is doing a bang up job with this and I am having a load of fun. I hope the audience does too."

    Out September!

    Marvel's announcement:

    "Babe, wake up, Al Ewing's Secret Avengers just dropped."

    That Acuna cover! The premise! The vibes! Kirk on Art! I'm excited. Day 1 buy for sure

    (I give it 15 issues max)

    As I said in the Wasp thread:

    Since it's Al Ewing, I'm kind of hoping that this Victor Shade will have something to do with the Anti-Vision from the Gatherers. He was last seen in the 90s Vision mini, still in the 616, and never used again.

    The description does call him a villain, so it probably is Anti-Vision. Maybe that's why Vision no longer uses the Victor Shade alias.

    FINALLY! Something that isn't a rehash. Great creative team! Not all that interested in the characters, but I would try this just to support something fresh, and the creators.
    Namor the Sub-Mariner, Marvel's oldest character, will have been published for 85 years in 2024. So where's my GOOD Namor anniversary ongoing, Marvel?

    That cover reminds me of the UK series called The Avengers.

    Four ongoings for Ewing, that's a bit much (Venom, X-Men Red and the upcoming Immortal Thor & Avengers INC.) ; does that mean Red will end soon ?

    Yes. It definitely is. ALL X books end by Christmas, ready for a relaunch in January.

    Though Ewing has done four books at the same time before - Ultimates2, Royals, Rocket, and U.S.Avengers.

    Cool concept. I'm inclined to agree that it's probably Anti-Vision left over from the Gatherers. Can't wait.
    Wanna make somethin' of it?
