About this deal

At first, with the Avengers in ruins, a new team named The New Avengers is created: Iron Man, Captain America, Luke Cage, Wolverine, Ronin (aka Echo), Spider-Man, Spider-Woman, and Sentry. It was also the title of the main Avengers series written by Bendis—with art by David Finch, then by Steve McNiven, Leinil Francis Yu, Billy Tan, and Stuart Immonen as the years went by. Avengers #262-263 are collected in The Once and Future Kang (#262, Namor the Sub-Mariner joins the Avengers) All of these are also collected in New Avengers by Brian Michael Bendis: The Complete Collection Vol. 1. I thought this book was pretty good, to me it was kind of confusing to follow a lot of information was giving and I did not really know each character very well so for me it was a little confusing but I did enjoy the story a lot and I thought it was a pretty good book. Before taking a more detailed look at Brian Michael Bendis’s run on the Avengers/New Avengers (and more), following is other collections collecting his run: The New Avengers Modern Era Epic Collection

Bendis’s other projects include the Harvey, Eisner, and Eagle Award-nominated Powers (with Michael Avon Oeming) originally from Image Comics, now published by Marvel's new creator-owned imprint Icon Comics, and the Hollywood tell-all Fortune and Glory from Oni Press, both of which received an "A" from Entertainment Weekly. Collects Avengers #278-285 and Avengers Annual #16; Marvel Graphic Novel #27: Emperor Doom; X-Men vs. Avengers #1-4; and West Coast Avengers Annual #2. On a side note, Dark Avengers was published before the Marvel Cinematic Universe properly took off: it'd be interesting to see how much those movies have changed the idea of the default Avengers line-up. The Sentry in particular now feels like an artefact of the time.) The Avengers have to choose a roster out of the 39 heroes that answered Thor's call to arms. Throughout the issue, the Avengers manage to whittle the roster down to 7 members and 2 reserves. A lot of great character moments here. Collects New Avengers (2004) #11-25, Giant-Size Spider-Woman #1, New Avengers Annual (2006) #1, New Avengers: Illuminati (2006) One-Shot, Civil War: The Confession and more.Collects New Avengers: Illuminati One-Shot, Fantastic Four (1997) #536-537, Amazing Spider-Man (1999) #529-531.

After Secret Wars, the Marvel Universe was rebooted, a combination of the 616 Universe and 1610 Ultimate Universe. A new Avengers title (vol. 6) – aka All-New, All-Different Avengers– was launched in 2015. It was written by Mark Waid, with artwork by Mahmud Asrar and Adam Kubert. This time, Iron Man forms a new team of Avengers with the Vision, Nova (Sam Alexander), Ms. Marvel, Spider-Man (Miles Morales), Captain America (Sam Wilson), and Thor (Jane Foster). Also, Al Ewing started to write New Avengers. Collects Avengers (1963) #378-388, Marvel Double Feature: Avengers/Giant-Man (1994) #379-382, Vision (1994) #1-4, Captain America (1968) #440-441.

After Roy Thomas left, Steve Englehart started his run with #135. He wrote most of the issues up until #152. Wow, this may well be THE best Avengers run, period, and I'm willing to say that when I'm only one volume in. Crazy I missed this when it was originally coming out, as it was during my period away from comics when I became disillusioned with them and the '90s formula (which is funny, because these days, I love that nostalgic trash!) If only I knew classic superhero material of this quality was going on while I was brooding in my bedroom listening to nu-metal albums. I can only imagine what my anticipation would have been, waiting for every new issue.

In 1997, Busiek began a stint as writer of Avengers alongside artist George Pérez. Pérez departed from the series in 2000, but Busiek continued as writer for two more years, collaborating with artists Alan Davis, Kieron Dwyer and others. Busiek's tenure culminated with the "Kang Dynasty" storyline. In 2003, Busiek re-teamed with Perez to create the JLA/Avengers limited series.
