All-New, All-Different Avengers #1 arrives this week.

Iron Man, Captain America and Thor are the big three icons joined by Vision and young heroes Ms. Marvel, Nova and Miles Morales/Spider-Man.

Mark Waid, Adam Kubert and Mahmud Asrar are the creative team behind’s Marvel’s biggest team.

Loki brought the original version of the Avengers together. Waid explains how the new heroes “assemble” and the villain behind the first arc:

“Our first story is, as near as (Tom) Brevoort and I can remember, the first time since 1963 that someone’s actually done an Avengers origin story; because when we pick up after Secret Wars, there is no formal “Avengers” team for the first time ever. No one’s carrying the legacy; no one’s technically an Avenger. It’s a villain we’ve seen in the pages of NOVA that brings our seven heroes together; a newer menace, but one we’ll see again. And, of course, there are other villains waiting in the wings, as sharp-eyed readers of the Free Comic Book Day Avengers issue know.” Waid told Marvel.com.
