Like with Hawkeye, Scarlet Witch, Wonder Man, Wasp, Pym, Quicksilver, etc?Even outliers like Crystal or Sersi?So it’s just the headliners plus Cap, Tony, Thor and Carol thrown in there.
Maybe they can tap whatever writers aren't in the grave already for a nostalgia mini.
>>155577092Unless the final issue of Armageddon is a bloodbath, I can't see why what's happened so far would result in most of the team present in the event dropping out and there being a lineup explicitly presented as "the survivors" like this.But this New Avengers Nostalgia lineup sucks, nobody wanted Miracleman in the Marvel Universe, or the OP OC to become the new Miracleman.Thor's own title may have taken him out of the picture for the moment, but throw us a bone and give us another Avengers book with Cap, Tony, Wanda, Vision, Hawkeye, Hank and Jan.>>155577137For whatever reason Avengers doesn't seem to get those nostalgia minis, maybe it's an editorial thing.
>>155577092Can't you go back and read the old comics?Also, Colton's symbol is a pair of asscheeks.
I for one like the New Avengers lineup.At least, I really liked when Cage was the heart of the team. It was a unique perspective.
We need new talent inhouse.
>Black Knight doesn't get to be an Avenger anymore>And he has to share his title with his shitty OC daughter
>>155577092i dont even care who is on the team as long as the book is GOOD. it hasnt been good since 2004 new avengers
Yeah dude never ever again, not like these things are cyclical
>>155577212>Unless the final issue of Armageddon is a bloodbath, I can't see why what's happened so far would result in most of the team present in the event dropping out and there being a lineup explicitly presented as "the survivors" like this.According to the Avengers preview something is going to happen to Tony that helps to push the whole "No Powers" movementI don't think he dies because his solo is still goingBucky might die since he sided with Colton on the whole No Nukes thing
>>155577092In 10 years when zoomers are all in their 30s they will absolutely do a classic avengers roster just to get the moviefags in for nostalgia.
>>155577607>classic avengers>moviefagsare you kidding me with this shit?
>>155577570>Bucky might die since he sided with Colton on the whole No Nukes thingYou might want to look at what happened in #4.
#2 cover from Carolthread>The biggest launch of the year continues! Spider-Man must act quickly when his past once again puts Aunt May in jeopardy! Demons flood New York City, and the Avengers have to defeat them. What are Mephisto’s ultimate goals? And who is this mysterious young woman with the prophetic book? Only the Adjudicator knows!
>>155577797STOPHELLMERTIME
>>155577797>when his past once again puts Aunt May in jeopardy
>>155577493Nigga, we've not had a proper classic Avengers roster since the Austen run. Even the Hickman run was just the movie roster plus Carol.
Is there a reason they aren't using the mm logo on his suit?
>>155577092Never because you guys will hate that because this entire board runs on pessimistic 40+ year olds who’ve given up on everything
>>155577570>Bucky might dieAnon, I...
>>155578905Shhhh no spoilers
>>155577570>the whole "No Powers" movementthe what now? I have been intentionally avoiding recent stuff. Are they seriously trying to make a third civil war happen. How are they going to reconcile this kind of “movement” with how ridiculously overpowered most heroes are now? Is it just going to be several years of heroes awkwardly trying not to use their superpowers for the sake of Equality™?
>>155577092The previous run was sort of a classic Avengers lineup, everyone had been a member since at least 1979 and Scarlet Witch and Vision were there.But nothing happened, there was almost no character work, it was just big threats and big fights.In theory you can have a "classic Avengers" run with almost nobody important. That's more or less how Al Ewing made his name. But ever since (of all things) the All-New All-Different Avengers they've mostly had characters with their own books, which makes it impossible to write a real Avengers book instead of a JLA type of thing.
>>155578958The Avengers #1 preview makes allusions to how Armageddon is going to endLuke can't be seen with Spider-Man because his political opponent is running on an anti-Superhero platformPeter mentions something about an Anti-Powers pushAnd a pretty major subplot in Armageddon is that the Avengers and Fantastic Four were interfering with Rulk's actions in Latverian and Symkaria without UN approval. The UN Secretary specifically told them not to get involvedAnd then Rulk blows up like a nuke while fighting the guy who flew around stealing everyone's nukes
>>155579085Does Chip not know that Luke knows Peter's secret identity?
>>155577092>street level heroes plus two flying brick that look like genderswap version of each otherdon't feel like there is great cohesion there
>>155579598Carol got drastically nerfed actually, the only powerhouse on the team is Colton.
It's not that I don't get that sometimes teams need a headliner but it's pretty sad we can't get really weird lineups anymore. But I guess writers can front load the heavy characters and then say how successful they were because they had Spider-man and Wolverine on their cover.
>>155579021it was a neat mythic story. I don't know, it basically felt like Marvel doing a good DC story.
>>155579021It was but it was also the most boring a classic lineup could have been. Wanda being back was cool I guess but the rest (barring Storm who sucks) are the same Avengers characters we've been cycling in and out of since ANAD. Two or three of that lineup, plus two of the overlooked classics from OP's list, plus two outliers would have been a lot more interesting
>>155577212>For whatever reason Avengers doesn't seem to get those nostalgia minis, maybe it's an editorial thing.There was one a few years ago: Avengers War Across Time, by Paul Levitz and art by Alan Davis. It was decent, but the ending felt rushed.
>>155579787>but it's pretty sad we can't get really weird lineups anymore.Who would buy a book like that? All you hear is people whining when their favourite characters aren’t on the book
>>155577092Get rid of Carol and MM and add Danny and that team is goddamn near perfect
>>155581039So you want Defenders instead of Avengers?
>>155581039Carol is the one that was a regular Avenger before Bendis (Spider-Man was a reservist, but obviously was too busy 99.9% of the time). If you remove her, then it becomes strange.
>>155581100>For some reason, Starlight returns and calls herself Red Guardian again.
>>155581100You mean Heroes For Hire?
>>155580979>Who would buy a book like that?Lot of people. It's been historically proven that weird teams can do well. Actually read comics you casual.
>>155577797>Aunt May in trouble>Avengers fighting demons>JRPG villain with a "The Adjective" name
>>155581100I want a goddamn street level team with characters I like and not a bunch of shitty shoehorns>>155581114>If you remove her, then it becomes strange.If by "strange" you mean possibly good then yes
>>155581200If you call it Avengers they are going to fight time-travelers and immortal robots with daddy issues and grotesque other-dimensional things and a massive-sized army of evil and such. Not very suitable for streeting.
>>155581039>Get rid of Carol>removing the one good part of the bookAnon what the fuck
>>155577092I wonder if they'll ever acknowledge Ant-Man founded the Avengers or if we're just going to pretend it was Cap/Fury/Carol forever?
>>155581373It doesn't matter. The Avengers disbanded and reformed with different people like a dozen times at least.
>>155581265>Carol>Good
