According to the publisher's latest teaser for the 'Heroic Age' title, its first story arc will feature the villain Kang the Conqueror.
The book's solicitation reads: "There came a day! A day unlike any other... where two of Marvel's top creators teamed up for the very first time to create a bombastic new monthly Marvel comic that not only ushers in the 'Heroic Age' of Marvel Comics but unleashes onto the world the most blockbuster Avengers team ever!
"Who will answer the call? And will they assemble just in time... because Kang the Conqueror is here from the future. And wait till you find out why!"
Written by Brian Bendis and drawn by John Romita Jr, the first issue carries a backup feature titled 'The Oral History of the Avengers, Part One'.
Avengers #1 arrives in stores on May 19.
