Just in time for Independence Day Marvel unveiled: U.S. AVENGERS from writer Al Ewing and artist Paco Medina. This is one of the new books in the upcoming Marvel NOW! initiative.

The lineup will include: Cannonball, Squirrel Girl, Red Hulk, a new Iron Patriot and Captain America (a grown up Danielle Cage from the future) and Roberto Da Costa, the former New Mutant who bought A.I.M.

Marvel faced the fans at the Avengers Now panel at San Diego Comic Con following last week’s triple shot of announcements with big changes for the big three Avengers.

 

Sam Wilson will become the All-New Captain America #1 by Rick Remender and Stuart Immonen. A woman will wield the hammer in a brand new Thor #1 by Jason Aaron and Russell Dauterman. Tony Stark will get a change of armor and attitude in Superior Iron Man #1 by Tom Taylor and Yildiray Cinar.

 

Rick Remender said Wilson will “earn the mantle” in Captain America #25. A new Nomad (Ian, the son of Armin Zola from Dimension Z) will be new sidekick and Steve Rogers, now in his 90’s and without the Super Soldier Serum, will be an advisor.
