Doom’s Superior Avengers: Villains Turned Heroes in Marvel’s Bold New Saga!

Marvel Comics is introducing a bold new version of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes with Superior Avengers, a tie-in series to One World Under Doom. Written by Steve Foxe and illustrated by Luca Maresca, the six-issue series will launch in April and will feature artwork from acclaimed artist Kyle Hotz.

But these aren’t the Avengers fans are used to. This time, Doctor Doom has put together his own version of the team—one made up of some of Marvel’s most feared villains. The new Avengers lineup includes Abomination, Doctor Octopus, Ghost, Killmonger, Malekith, and Onslaught. These names have long been associated with chaos and destruction, but in Superior Avengers, they will fight for hope and peace.

The story takes place in a world where Doctor Doom is in control, and he needs an Avengers team to enforce his rule. Doom’s son, Kristoff Vernard, is given the task of assembling this unusual group of heroes. But why have these villains taken up the role of Avengers? What are they truly fighting for? Those questions will be at the heart of the series.

Writer Steve Foxe promises plenty of surprises, teasing that while these characters may seem familiar, their true motivations are more complex than they appear. “What motivates them and what they’re doing here—or what they’re running away from—is where things may get more complicated,” Foxe revealed.

Kyle Hotz, known for his distinct and gritty style, will illustrate key moments in the series that reveal the origins of Doom’s Avengers. He will also create unique variant covers for each issue, giving fans a closer look at these transformed villains.

Marvel editor Danny Khazem praised Hotz’s work, saying, “Kyle Hotz is one of the most unique artists and storytellers in the industry. When we were deciding who could handle these scenes, there was only one choice—you’ll start to see why once you read Issue #1!“

The first issue of Superior Avengers will hit comic stores on April 16, 2024. With a powerful creative team and an intriguing premise, this series is shaping up to be one of Marvel’s most exciting new stories.

Are these villains truly heroes now, or is there something more sinister at play? Fans will have to read Superior Avengers to find out!
