Anyway, Here's Wonder Man

It’s funny that Avengers membership is such a mark of distinction in 2018. It makes sense. With the Infinity War raging in theaters, Stark, Rogers et al. are the unrivaled premiere bunch of supers. But 'twasn’t ever thus.

Consider the Avengers’ roster from back when I was a dedicated reader of the title. It included Captain Marvel (Monica Rambeau), She-Hulk, Wonder Man, Tigra, Reed and Sue Richards, The Sub-Mariner, Black Knight, Doctor fucking Druid? What a weird-ass lineup this seems today, in the era of the all-star MCU Avengers.

But that’s the Avengers’ secret, Cap. They were always weird-ass lineups. Take a look at some of the names on this dishonor roll: Wikipedia’s list of Avengers Members

And that’s what makes it a little weird to promise “Avengers character” titles in this comics assortment. We run the risk of raising expectations among fans of the film characters. Because who wouldn’t be a fan of the film characters? The film characters are the cream of comicdom’s crop. Their names are literally on marquees worldwide; they’d better be Marvel’s marquee names.

But for all we know, these bundles are bereft of Hulk and Thor, and instead contain solo titles featuring such D-list Avengers alumni as Living Lightning! The Two-Gun Kid! The Swordsman! And (maybe the lamest onetime Avenger ever,) Demolition Man! Yes, Demolition Man. He’s… pretty strong! But he has a heart condition, so he should really take it easy. Brace yourself for moderately intense action scenes punctuated by regular breaks!

It makes one wonder how groups like the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Defenders ever got their reputations for being “oddball” second-tier teams, given how truly odd Marvel’s headliner hero squad almost always was. (Obviously I’m talking about the Defenders in print, not on the screen. Netflix’s Hulkless, Doc-Strangeless team was “The Defenders” the same way that band with Buckethead and the drummer from Primus was “Guns ‘N’ Roses”.)

It doesn’t matter. None of this matters. We’re selling a big stack of funny-book punch-'em-up stories for cheap. Take them on road trips! Give them to your kids! Rip them up and do a fun decoupage project! Stash them at your fishing cabin for rainy-day reading and chilly-morning kindling!

We can’t guarantee they’ll all be towering artistic triumphs of the medium. But we can promise they’re all from the big publishers (Marvel and D.C.). And at least eight issues in each bundle will feature “Avengers”.

Just remember, as you consider what that last promise is worth, that “Triathlon,” a.k.a “3-D Man” was once an Avenger too. Excelsior!
