Starting this November, Jason Aaron will conclude his incredible work on the Avengers mythos in the pages of Avengers Assemble. For nearly five years, the writer has penned an epic Avengers story across over 60 issues of Avengers as well as titles like this one and Avengers of 1,000,000 BC. Now, he’ll wrap things up in style in one epic crossover.
Avengers Assemble will kick off with November's Avengers Assemble: Alpha one-shot before crossing over between issues of Avengers and Avengers Forever beginning in December. Aaron will be joined by a trio of astounding comic talents including artist Bryan Hitch as well as regular artists Javier Garrón and Aaron Kuder.
From throughout time and the far corners of the Multiverse, the Mightiest Heroes of All the Earths are assembling as never before for a battle beyond all imagining. A war that will take us from the prehistoric beginnings of an Earth under assault by the greatest villains who’ve ever lived to the watchtower that stands at the dark heart of the all and the always, where an army of unprecedented evil now rises.
In Avengers #63, it all kicks off with the showdown fans have been waiting for - The Battle of 1,000,000 BC! The Avengers stand face-to-face with their prehistoric counterparts, but if the two groups cannot work together, they have no hope of defeating Doom Supreme and his marauding band of Multiversal Masters of Evil, who have come to erase all of Marvel history as we know it.
"Four years of Avengers stories. Threads from really every major series I've worked on throughout my last decade and a half at Marvel, from Ghost Rider to Thor. It all leads to this. The biggest Avengers story I could possibly imagine," Aaron says. "Featuring a cavalcade of characters from across creation."
"And I'm so deeply thrilled and honored that it all kicks off with an oversized Alpha issue that's being drawn by the legendary Bryan Hitch, who I'm getting to work with here for the very first time. Avengers Assemble. Say the words like a prayer. It's the only thing that can save you."
