I'm surprised by this announcement as anybody, but it appears that Brian Michael Bendis is not going to back down with the series just yet!
As reported in Marvel and Newsarama, the NEW AVENGERS are returning with a relaunch of issue #1 as part of the Heroic Age. However, it will not be released alongside the other new titles, AVENGERS and SECRET AVENGERS, and will have its debut instead on June this year. As you can see from the teaser above, the first inductee and probably the de facto leader of the group will be none other than Luke Cage, who's no stranger to leadership since he led the underground, unregistered New Avengers team after the events of Civil War. Cage, who's "Never Backed Down From A Fight", will also be appearing in Thunderbolts in a leader capacity as well, so it should be interesting to see him juggle his time between the two teams. It's nice that another team makes their presence known... but that means it's 3 Avengers titles on the horizon already!
New Avengers will be written by Brian Michael Bendis and drawn by Stuart Immonen. More info in Newsarama via the link.
