Rumored. Just a rumor so far, but... it does all kinda fit together. And the solicit for Axis #6 definitely seems to point to a team of ex villains, since we already know that the Axis team is good guys gone bad.
AVENGERS & X-MEN: AXIS #6 (OF 9)
• The Axis of Evil have won, who is left to stop them?
• Rogue and Nightcrawler vs Mystique!
• Thor vs Loki!
• Magneto and Quicksilver vs The Scarlet Witch!
• This is it, the face of the new world disorder--The Astonishing Avengers are formed!
I would read the HELL out of a book of reformed Loki, Magneto, Mystique, Quicksilver and who knows who else (I would bet money on inverted Sabretooth being involved, even though he wasn't mentioned in the solicit) saving the world in their own unique and probably often morally questionable ways. It's... kinda right up my alley. So if it's not that, I shall be VERY SAD. I am sure that the initial formation of the team will rely on their inverted status, and some of the initial members may fall away after they come to their senses. But there's enough of them there that are either already solidly reformed, like Quicksilver, or are already on a redemption path to make up a team after the inversion effect is gone. We need a couple other non-mutant members though, so it's not just the Brotherhood plus Loki. And yeah, I know some people will bitch about Remender, and I will grant that he can miss as often as he hits, and I've found Uncanny Avengers... a bit shaky. (I haven't hated it, but it's not clicking the same way X-Force did.) But I did love Uncanny X-Force and will keep my fingers crossed that all he needs is some different characters to bring out his A game. And maybe being paired with Ribic again, too.
