Avengers Assemble Covers Tease Final Chapters of Jason Aaron's Avengers Run

Writer Jason Aaron is nearing the end of his Avengers run, and new details on the upcoming crossover event"Avengers Assemble" reveal how he's raising the stakes for Earth's Mightiest Heroes. This week's New Comic Book Day included the release of Avengers Assemble Alpha #1 by Jason Aaron and Bryan Hitch. The one-shot is the opening salvo of Aaron's nearly five-year run on Avengers, which is wrapping up in his two titles, Avengers and Avengers Forever.

The covers and solicitation for March's Avengers #66 and Avengers Forever #15 put the spotlight on a diverse team of Earth's Mightiest Heroes, and two central characters: Robbie Reyes' Ghost Rider, and the new Starbrand.

Avengers Forever #15's cover by Aaron Kuder features Ghost Rider and the elderly Starbrand as the last heroes standing at Infinity's End. Both characters have played pivotal roles in Avengers and Avengers Forever, and Marvel teases that it will come down to both heroes having to figure out how to get their powers working again.

What Is Avengers Assemble?Tying together plot threads from throughout Aaron's run and first announced at San Diego Comic-Con, "Avengers Assemble" is 10-part showdown at the edge of reality between an army of Earth's Mightiest Heroes and the evilest forces in the multiverse. At Infinity's End stands Avengers Tower, which has fallen under assault by the ultimate forces of evil including the Multiversal Masters of Evil and Mephisto.

0comments"It feels good. It's definitely the right time to bring this all crashing together and finish some of the character arcs that I've been building for years now," Aaron told CBR."We talked about what a big, epic, war story this is. It's got a lot of different characters punching each other, and a lot of different versions of Avengers from throughout time and space.
