A classic team of Avengers returns with new members, a new status quo, and a new mission...but can they survive the trials and tribulations that await them? As the West Coast Avengers try to stay afloat after their encounter with Flag-Smasher, a new group of ruffians has come to disrupt them — and it’s the Avengers! Are they there for Ultron? Or do they have a bigger issue with Iron Man’s new team? Meanwhile, Killerwatt pours fuel on the fire! As the first reformed villain in a work-release program built by Tony Stark for the West Coast Avengers, he made a promising start as Blue Bolt — but he still needs some work to soften those rough edges. What better way to gain the public’s trust than by taking on a revered Avengers-legacy name like Wonder Man? Only one problem: Simon Williams, the real Wonder Man, is still alive and kickin’! COLLECTING: West Coast Avengers (2024) 6-10 Gerry Duggan has become one of Marvel’s most influential writers, having first made an impression at the House of Ideas with a lengthy and always surprising Deadpool run alongside his frequent writing partner, Brian Posehn. Among Duggan’s solo credits are Nova, Hulk and multiple tie-ins to the Secret Wars event. He added Deadpool to the revamped roster of Uncanny Avengers and brought his unique blend of action and humor to All-New Guardians of the Galaxy, leading up to the cosmic event series Infinity Wars. Marauders and Cable established him as a vital part of the storytelling team for the Dawn of X era, a role he has cemented further by launching the blockbuster new X-Men title. Duggan’s earlier collaboration with artist Phil Noto — The Infinite Horizon, a reimagining of Homer’s The Odyssey in a dystopian future — earned an Eisner Award nomination for Best New Series.
