Ahead of its May 17th release, Marvel Comics has released a new trailer for Avengers #1. The series relaunches its numbering with Jed MacKay and C.F. Villa, with team leader Captain Marvel and icons like Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Black Panther, Scarlet Witch, and Vision filling out the team.
“Putting her [Captain Marvel] in the big seat of the Avengers is a logical progression for the character, to my mind, and applying the challenges of leading a team like the Avengers to a character with the sensibilities of a brash fighter pilot has been a lot of fun,” MacKay told Polygon in an interview earlier today which also included an exclusive preview of the debut issue.
Check out the trailer below.

New York, NY— April 13, 2023 — Next month, superstar writer Jed MacKay and Marvel’s Stormbreakers artist C.F. Villa launch a new run of AVENGERS starring Captain Marvel, Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Black Panther, Scarlet Witch, and Vision. This team of some of Marvel’s greatest icons will assemble when they’re gifted with knowledge of THE TRIBULATION EVENTS, a series of grand-scale disasters that will spark upheaval throughout the known universe. Will this powerhouse team be able to triumph and learn the truth behind these incoming earth-shattering threats? And how does Kang’s ambitious quest for the “Missing Moment” tie into all this?
Fans can see the team’s unmatched strength in the all-new AVENGERS #1 TRAILER, featuring never-before-seen artwork of the new lineup flying into action against Terminus. Under the inspirational leadership of Carol Danvers, the AVENGERS are ready to confront anyone and anything that dare to endanger the planet, but the cosmic significance and insurmountable stakes of their new mission threaten to take a heavy toll on even the mightiest of super heroes.
“Putting her [Captain Marvel] in the big seat of the Avengers is a logical progression for the character, to my mind, and applying the challenges of leading a team like the Avengers to a character with the sensibilities of a brash fighter pilot has been a lot of fun,” MacKay told Polygon in an interview earlier today which also included an exclusive preview of the debut issue.
