Marvel Comics has new information about West Coast Avengersfirst presented at SDCC 2024. The new series was written by Gerry Duggan, the art was done by Danny Kim, and the first issue is scheduled to hit comic book stores on November 27th.
“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 it’s 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 in the city that’s been my home for so long. Wait until you see what Danny Kim cooks up. Find redemption in the City of Angels in November.”
