Has anyone been keeping up with the Original Sin issues of "Avengers" also by Hickman? If not, you are missing out on some great extra story. The parallel story lines of both "Avengers" and "New Avengers" (and the "New Avengers Annual") have been gold. Definitely one of my favorite stories at the moment.
Love this series, it deserves all the support it can get. Easily my favourite Marvel title alongside All-New X·Factor, Fantastic Four and Elektra. In fact, Hickman's issues are probably the first time I've ever really followed the Avengers. Ecstatic that Doom will be coming on board (sadly at the loss of Namor) and +1 from me on looking forward to Time Runs Out. Glad to hear there'll be more art from Schiti as well.
that's certainly possible.
now i wonder why they did'nt get doom on board as early as issue #6 (7?)
on the same note, namor could also use that snub to offer doom a chance to work with him ?
how far are we from #24 ? i can't wait!
i hope not..i can't see either Val or Nathaniel fit in the illuminati
Issue #24 is tentatively scheduled for September 24th but Marvel doesn't have anything on their site's schedule yet.
Doom and Valeria are probably still going to be hanging out doing some road trips together. I don't expect her or Reed's dad to be members of the Illuminati but I think there might be an outside chance of a guest appearance, particularly if Val is still living with Doom in Latveria.
After Reed and Doctor Strange told Doom to stay out of it I wonder what Doom's independent research has come up with. Maybe they will regret keeping him out of things. Namor is going to be a tough act to follow. He certainly made his mark on the team, for better or worse.
We are the Dora Milaje. We are the daughters of the 18 tribes of Wakanda. We are the teeth of the Panther God. Out of 10,000 years of sweat and bloodshed and battle are we born. We are the women of this ancient land. Deadliest of the species. And our time has come!
While Namor is joining the villainous Cabal while I think Doom will join the Illuminati. As others have mentioned, I am interested to know if Doom has learned anything from the Incursion in Latveria.

Don't forget guys, during Infinity (or maybe the Prelude), I think issue 10, Reed and Tony consult with someone to help them. We still don't know who that was. It was probably Doom, since he knows of the Incursions.
Is Hickman's Avengers important to New Avengers? Do they bounce off each other, or are they only loosely connected? I want to start reading New Avengers again(dropped at #13), but I'm not sure if I should also read Avengers to get the full story.
