Announced at the San Diego Comic-Con, WEST COAST AVENGERS are back this November in a new ongoing series from Marvel Superstar Gerry Duggan and acclaimed artist Danny Kim!
This iconic take on Earth’s Mightiest Heroes will hit the ground running in time for the title’s 40th anniversary. Following Duggan’s appearance on INVINCIBLE IRON MAN, the series begins with Tony Stark assembling a new team consisting of War Machine, Jessica Drew, aka Spider-Woman, Firestar, who Duggan redefined in the pages of X-MEN, and a mysteriously redeemed Ultron! Today, fans can see this bold new cast in various covers for the debut issue, including work by Jeehyung Lee, Gerardo Sandoval, and series artist Danny Kim.
Ultron returns… redeemed? Iron Man and War Machine have assembled a new Avengers team – one that includes villains looking for redemption. Their case in point? Ultron – who seems to be going the right way against all odds… at least for now. But does the success of one guarantee the success of all? Spider-Woman and Firestar have their doubts. And can Ultron really be redeemed from his past by any heroic act?
“I’ve been thinking about redemption this year and we’ll see who can be redeemed on the West Coast,” Duggan teased. “It’s a fun action story, but also an Ultron story – and one of my biggest Marvel swings yet.”
“I’ve previously had the pleasure of writing a pretty great Ultron horror story with Pym’s face on it, and this is a very different story featuring one of my favorite Marvel characters in one of my favorite legacy titles set in the city that’s been my home for so long,” he continued. “Wait until you see what Danny Kim cooks up. Find redemption in the City of Angels in November.”
