It’s a good time to be an Avengers fan!
This May we can look forward to a double dose of new Avenger books with some great creative teams behind them. Marvel recently showed off two similar ad campaigns for two not so similar books.
Last week came the announcement that Brian Michael Bendis and John Romita Jr. are teaming up to relaunch the classic Avengers book with issue #1 and this week word surfaced about the second Avengers series called Secret Avengers. The superstar creative team of Ed Brubaker and Mike Deodato will be bringing that story to life.
So far the classic Avengers series has five confirmed members on its roster — Hawkeye, Captain America, Spider-Woman, Thor, and Iron Man. (Bendis confirmed on Twitter that this is not the complete roster.)
Both titles launch in May.
It looks like Black Panther and War Machine might be two of the Secret Avengers but I have no idea about the others. Who do you think the Secret Avengers in the teasers are? Check out the covers here below.

This looks awesome. I would guess the female is scarlet witch. The one flying i think is vision, not War Machine. Doesn’t War Machine have the guns attached to his back? Black Panther is a good guess too. For the fourth guess, I’m gonna throw Dr. Strange out there, not expecting it to stick though.
I’m still surprised there’s no Spiderman. That’s like not having Green Lantern as a Justice League member! You can but you shouldn’t.

I agree, the woman is probable the Scarlet Witch. As for the others-
“I focus on the solution, not the problem” – buccaneer boots and wings(?) Nighthawk.
“I excel through adversity” – Not War Machine – too streamlined. Looks like he’s wearing bracers – maybe Namor?
“I Seek redemption” – large cloak with a cowl – The Hood
