scans_dailyAlonso & Brevoort Make Theirs Marvel NOW! @ CBR
Basically a follow up to this post.
* "This is a world where people don't make quite the same distinctions between mutant super hero and scientifically endowed super hero or between them and a hero who is from another planet. The gap between theses three hero archetypes isn't going to be as big as it was before," Alonso explained. "That doesn't mean that there will be people out there who aren't inclined to hate mutants or destroy the world. It just means that super heroes as a community will feel different.
* "As a former X-Men group editor I learned firsthand how segregated the X-Men were from the rest of the Marvel Universe," Alonso said. "It wasn't a surprise to me to learn that 99% of their stories were about the X-Men confronting yet another threat to their existence. That makes for interesting stories, but what about the story when they go and save the world? Or where they stop a villain from blowing a building up? So we asked ourselves, how can the X-Men be integrated into this universe and what are the limitations of that integration?"
* "In essence, as we attempt to bridge the divide between the Avengers and the X-Men as entities within our publishing world, 'Uncanny Avengers' will be the primary bridging book, a place where the team is as likely to battle Apocalypse as the Red Skull, and where long-established X-characters will stand side-by-side with long-established Avengers characters, in a very public manner," Brevoort continued."Among the characters who'll make up the team are Captain America, Wolverine, Thor, the Scarlet Witch, Rogue and Havok, with a few other surprises waiting in the wings."
And BC's succinct post about new books/creator team-ups.

i can imagine rogue, wanda and alex could find a lot to chat about, though.

What the fuck does Thor need swords for

Date: 2012-07-05 05:02 pm (UTC)Considering that the rumor right now is that one of the Hulk books is going to be renamed "Hulk & The Agents of SMASH" in anticipation for the upcoming cartoon, I'm thinking that maybe SHIELD recruits Hulk, and since they would find Banner's intellect to be just as valuable, they create this restraint/symbiotic suit around Hulk that Banner, in Hulk's mind, can use to work together at the same time.

Date: 2012-07-05 09:25 pm (UTC)It doesn't sound like Marvel civilians will act any differently. It's just that in the superhero community and also editorial decisions, there won't be so much of "mutant heroes stick with fellow mutants in mutant teams to deal with mutant problems." Superheroes are superheroes, and they deal with threats to humans, mutants, the world, the universe, whatever, it makes no difference what their superpower origin is.

Date: 2012-07-05 09:28 pm (UTC)A large number of titles will be part of the Marvel NOW! initiative, but that doesn't mean that every book Marvel publishes will be restarted with a new #1 issue. "Anything that has a story hook tied into this initiative will be branded Marvel NOW!" Alonso explained. "So there will be a lot of new #1 issues including 'Thor' #1, an 'Iron Man' #1, and a 'Captain America' #1, but there might be some other titles, like 'Daredevil' for instance, which won't go through a creative change or have a new #1. Mark Waid is doing a fantastic job on that book and his run is still very new. So we have no interest in interrupting that book.
And this is the part that makes me allllll giddy:
'Avengers' is going to be shipping twice a month. So there'll be three Hickman-written Avengers comics coming out every 30 days -- two issues of 'Avengers' and one issue of 'New Avengers'
