The Avengers are going "all-out" in a new series, All-Out Avengers, coming soon from Marvel.
Marvel announced a new All-Out Avengers ongoing series featuring Earth's Mightiest Heroes. The publisher also released a poster for the series with artwork by Greg Land, Jay Leisten and Frank D'Armata. One portion of the poster shows Captain America running through an exploding building. Another portion shows She-Hulk/Jennifer Walters battling a hairy-looking villain who remains mostly out of view.
Marvel didn't release any other details about the new series at this time. More information will come out of the Fan Expo Philadelphia's Pint O' C.B. panel at 1 p.m. on April 10. A release date for the new series has not yet been announced.
The All-Out Avengers announcement comes shortly after Marvel unveiled plans for a new Avengers 1,000,000 B.C. one-shot from Jason Aaron and Kev Walker, with cover art by Ed McGuinness and Alex Horley. The issue, which releases in July, will dive into the Earth's Mightiest Heroes' prehistoric roster, which includes Lady Phoenix, Odin, Ghost Rider, Iron Fist, Agamotto, Black Panther and Starbrand. Avengers 1,000,000 B.C. #1 will also elaborate on Thor's mysterious connection to the Phoenix Force following the revelation that Lady Phoenix is actually the Asgardian God of Thunder's mother.
Marvel's current Avengers run will soon see the superheroes head to war with the X-Men and Eternals in the upcoming Judgment Day crossover event. Coming from Kieron Gillen, Valerio Schiti and Marte Garcia, Judgment Day sees the Avengers try to prevent "a potentially apocalyptic war" while "the Eternals brazenly target the mutant nation of Karkoa." Releasing in July, the build-up for Judgment Day will take place in Free Comic Book Day: Avengers/X-Men, Eternals, Immortal X-Men, X-Men and Avengers.
"I looked at everything in Eternals and Immortal X-Men and everything else all the X and Avengers writers have done and thought... yeah, this is an event," Gillen previously said of Judgment Day. "In fact, an event is the only way to do justice to this. The Beach Boys' Brian Wilson described the music he was reaching for as Teenage Symphonies to God. I think that's what the best Marvel Events aspire to be, and it's what we're aspiring to here. I want the scale. I want the heartbreak. I want a book that wears its heart on its sleeve even as it puts a fist in your face. I want something Wagnerian in its volume as emotional as God Only Knows.”
