In stores this week- WEST COAST AVENGERS #1

I was a big fan of the Hawkeye-anchored West Coast Avengers back in the day, so I readily admit to being excited by the diverse and double-Hawkeye led  line-up Marvel's got on the new book.
Here's the sales pitch:
A NEW ERA DAWNS…AVENGERS ASSEMBLE! HAWKEYE (KATE BISHOP). HAWKEYE (CLINT BARTON). A guy named FUSE. Never have they ever been called “the big three” of…anything. And now here they are, reunited for, okay, well, it’s only the second time ever. Thank god they also brought AMERICA CHAVEZ, GWENPOOL and KID OMEGA. Wait. What? That’s right, it’s the new West Coast Avengers, son. And you better hope they can figure out how to save the world because BIG things are headed for the West Coast.







America Chavez is another character to watch.  Few new characters at the Big Two manage to have a shelf-life, but Chavez is built to last, I think.  Having her on West Coast Avengers is a good look.  In just five pages, they have got me on board.

We'll all get a chance to see if this book lives up to my giddy new expectations.  West Coast Avengers #1  drops August 22nd.
