Can you feel the Kree force on the stunning cover for Secret Avengers #27? Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel and the Protector are beautifully rendered by Alan Davis.
Captain Marvel appears to be bursting from a cosmic aura. Is he erupting from the Phoenix entity? Could the original Mar-Vell be returning from the dead? The Phoenix would certainly have the power to resurrect the late Kree warrior.
Could this be the unexpected result of a mission in Secret Avengers #26? That preview cover showed Ms. Marvel and a task force of Avengers heading to space to possibly confront the Phoenix before the entity reaches Earth.

Even with powerhouses like Thor, Hulk and Iron Man you need some heroes that can be your stealth operatives. Earth’s Mightiest heroes have expert archer Hawkeye and superspy Black Widow. Avengers Assemble by Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley is a new series to get you primed for Marvel’s The Avengers on the big screen.
Clint and Natasha are extraordinary people but they don’t have the powers of Cap, Iron Man, Thor or Hulk. Marvel.com revealed new preview art plus Bagley revealed how he’s making sure the non-powered Avengers never get lost in the background.
“Hawkeye is the cocky buccaneer of the team—always has a smile on his face and is ready at a moment’s notice to write a check his butt can’t cash,” says Mark Bagley. “Natasha has earned her place on the team and [writer] Brian [Michael Bendis] will treat her thusly. She certainly isn’t going to be the ‘chick’ character.”

“This new Age of Apocalypse book does the impossible – it revolutionizes an old concept without a reboot,” explains Senior Editor Nick Lowe. “If you’ve been reading Uncanny X-Force, you know where this is coming from and you’re already in. If you’re an Age of Apocalypse junkie, this builds on the alternate universe’s mythology is fascinating and troubling ways. And if you aren’t either and just want a ground-breaking, easy-entry book that will challenge everything you know about the X-Men, there hasn’t been a better jumping on point.”

The Phoenix Force is coming to Earth. Steve Rogers believes it will destroy the world so he’s taking action. Cyclops thinks the entity could save mutantkind. I love Cyclops but he is the new Magneto. Even Erik recognizes how Scott has evolved in his struggle to save the mutant race.

As you read the preview pages I also get the impression that Scott should watch out for Namor. The Submariner’s alliance with the X-Men and love for Emma Frost could be shaken by his long friendship with Captain America.
