Marvel Comics currently has a very violent team of Avengers, and while the likes of Elektra, Venom, and The Punisher have previously assembled alongside Conan the Barbarian in Savage Avengers, it's now the turn of the Unstoppable Juggernaut!
Cain Marko isn't a mutant, but his relationship with Professor X means that he's often fought against and alongside the X-Men. However, now that they're holed up on Krakoa, The Juggernaut has nowhere to call home and is no longer part of that team. An upcoming solo series will explore that, but he's also set to join the Savage Avengers alongside Black Knight.
"Conan leads a team of Savage Avengers against an Asgardian dragon in a quest for treasure," reads the solicit text for issue #14. "Get out your twenty-sided dice and roll to attack with Conan, Magik and new Savage recruits the Black Knight and Juggernaut."
With Magik also part of this iteration of the team, it's going to be interesting seeing how Cain interacts with her knowing he's no longer welcome on Krakoa. He's been an anti-hero for a while now, of course, and while most of us will have never expected to see him join The Avengers, he's definitely a good fit for Conan's team given his powerful, "savage" nature.
Savage Avengers #14 goes on sale this June. You can check out the action-packed cover below!
