New Avengers

Marvel’s New Avengers (2010–2013) reunited a street-level and mystical core team—featuring Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Spider-Man, and Doctor Strange—under the steady pen of Brian Michael Bendis. With a rotating artistic team that included Stuart Immonen and Mike Deodato, this 35-issue run balanced superhero action with Bendis’s signature character-driven dialogue, exploring what it means to be an Avenger in a post–Civil War landscape. It stands as a key chapter in Marvel’s modern era, bridging cosmic threats and personal stakes with a grounded, ensemble feel.
