Note the double ship:

APR120597

DARK AVENGERS #175

$2.99

APR120599

DARK AVENGERS #176

$2.99

If Parker is still writing it. Though this was mentioned after Norman's defeat wasn't it? That those Dark Avengers would be given over to Walker and Cage? I guess Songbird will finally be an Avenger. A DARK Avenger. :roll:

Interesting.

Seems like the perfect "fuck you" to Norman from Cage. Hopefully the name association will spike the sales enough to clear it from the cancellation point.

Good theory there.

Bc just confirmed. It is dark avengers.

well they pretty much were "dark avengers" for the most part. Definitely hope some of the original thunderbolts are still involved and i hope Parker is still writing it.

Bleeding Cool does point out that with Thunderbolts turning into Dark Avengers it makes 12 titles with "avengers" in the title against 12 titles with X-men in the title in June.

Parker is confirmed.

Also agree and seems more likely that some of the old tbolts will be there. I'm guessing much 5 and songbird. Not sure on fixer based on current storyline though.

Though i almost wish Songbird would actually move to one of the other Avengers teams. As much as i love Karla and what she brings to the team dynamic i kind of hope they give her a rest for a bit.

Then July gets X-Treme.

Bummer, I like the Thunderbolts name. Dark Avengers... I just see as Norman's team.

My guess it is short term.

hmn.

Well a bunch of my reaction is just nostalgia. I really did like the Dark Avengers book during its run. However, Thunderbolts kept me with Marvel during the dark time when I almost stopped buying Marvel altogether.

Well I survived Fightbolts (though I skipped that) so hopefully this is better.

The difference between this switch compared to the Fightbolts switch.. the same creative team is involved with this switch.
