Marvel Comics has released two more variant covers for The Avengers #1 showing the brand new team of heroes assembling and the recently redeemed Scarlet Witch powering up. Check them out after the jump…
Announced last month, a new era for Earth’s Mightiest Heroes is very nearly upon us! Written by Jed MacKay and drawn by Marvel’s Stormbreaker artist C.F. Villa, The Avengers #1 will arrive this May, ushering an age ripe with grand-scale adventure and cosmic mystery just in time for the team’s milestone 60th anniversary.
We shared Daniel Acuña’s amazing variant cover earlier this week, but now have two more to share with you.
The first is by Kael Ngu and shows the entire team in action. Captain Marvel. Iron Man. Thor. Black Panther. Captain America. Scarlet Witch. Vision. Ngu’s cover captures the incredible might of these seven legendary Avengers as they assemble for one of the greatest challenges in the team’s 60-year history.
This group of icons will need every ounce of their power and more for what’s coming as they become major players in Kang’s final conquest and tackle bold, high-stakes missions that only Earth’s Mightiest Heroes can hope to handle.
The next cover showcases Derrick Chew’s breathtaking version of the Scarlet Witch.
Redeemed and more confident in her abilities than ever before, Wanda will be rejoining the Avengers in the new run, lending her unmatched magic prowess to the team’s daunting new missions. In addition to reuniting with old friends, Wanda will also be working alongside her ex-husband Vision for the first time in years. Will sparks fly or will old wounds resurface?
MacKay and Villa’s The Avengers run will kick off with a saga that sees the team embrace a new divine purpose after they’re gifted with knowledge of The Tribulation Events, a series of grand-scale disasters that will spark upheaval throughout the known universe.
We got our first glimpse at MacKay’s overarching plan in December’s year-ending one-shot, Timeless, where readers followed Kang in his hunt for the unobtainable “Missing Moment.” Now, a dangerous game is afoot and the prize is greater than anything imaginable.
Will the Avengers be able to triumph in the face of the Tribulation Events and learn the connection behind these earth-shattering threats and Kang’s quest? Or will they be reduced to mere pawns in an extraordinary scheme beyond their comprehension?
