Infinity is the event Jonathan Hickman has been building up to since he relaunched Avengers and New Avengers. Check out this Infinity #1 variant cover by Marko Djurdjevic!

It will be the cosmic rematch of the new century as Earth’s Mightiest Heroes (and all the Marvel heroes) take on Thanos (also known as the big purple bad guy as the end of The Avengers movie.)
