The All-New, All-Different Marvel Now is born this Fall.
We know Invincible Iron Man (Tony Stark) will be front and center (at least in both promo art posters) in a brand new series by Brian Michael Bendis and David Marquez.
Based on the Free Comic Book Day issue, The All-New, All-Different Avengers will be a team composed of veterans, legacy heroes and rookies with what seems to focus on adventure and fun in a shift from the darker, epic, plot with plot Jonathan Hickman run.
Johnny Storm is joining the Uncanny Avengers, Ben Grimm is a Guardian of the Galaxy, Doctor Strange is armed with more than mystical powers, there will be a new Hulk and a new Wolverine.
Inhumans are everywhere but there’s no hint of a Fantastic Four or X-Men team book but there’s a new X-Men Editorial team in place.
That’s what we know. What do we want?
Here are our top All-New, All-Different Marvel Now wishes and dreams: Continue reading ALL-NEW, ALL-DIFFERENT MARVEL NOW Wishes & Dreams
