I'm going to link it for now, rather than post the image in case you ignored the spoilers warning in the title.

I'm pretty "meh" on the cast. No one I really care about, or even like to read.

Oh well.

DMAC

Is Cho drawing it or just on covers?

deadonthestreet

He is drawing the entire comic.

DarkPrimus

Why doesn't Tony Stark just hang up a sign that says "No non-pricks allowed!"

I mean, seriously.

SA

Hank Pym is going to die in Civil War 4

I am calling it now. Even though I called it earlier.

Apparently [spoiler:c69068136a]Sentry[/spoiler:c69068136a] is on the team as well, according to the internets.

if Sentry's on that team, Thor better be on the other one.

I wish they'd gotten rid of Spider-Woman.

I really don't care for her at all.

If it is, I liked his armored look from his mini-series about a thousand times more. He had that cool unadorned breastplate and a big sweeping red cape and stuff. Now he just looks like some kind of bondage gimp.

The Muffin Man

Ms. Marvel, Iron Man and MAYBE Wonder Man.

Otherwise, fuck that team.

Furu

Go Go Super Pro-Reg Dick Team?

I'm not sure if anyone's going to read anything with Tony Stark after Civil War ends.

I've had a huge boner for Ares since the mini-series, so I may be picking it up.

Hmm. Maybe that was the plan, then. Balance out characters that suck and no one likes any more with ones people want to read about or miss.

Brilliant.

The Muffin Man

Poor Ares probably has no idea what went on.

"So, when'll Spider-man and Captain America be joining us?"
"Uhh..."

Bucketman

Wait...I'm very confused, who thats chick who has the cloths that look like Sentry's?

Edit: Yes, black Widow, beacause thats never backfired.

That's Ms. Marvel.

Man, Black Widow has some rock-hard pecs.

Mai-Kero

Hank Pym looks like machine man.

That's Wonderman, isn't it?

Hank isn't on there. That's Wonder Man. People are already speculating that Hank dies in CW4 due to his non-appearence.

Bogart

That's an pretty powerful team, especially if [spoiler:f23a505af7]Sentry[/spoiler:f23a505af7] really is on the team. Although I guess if [spoiler:f23a505af7]Thor isn't on the team he's going to join the cast of New Avengers, thus making it able to beat this Mighty bunch with one hand tied behind its back.[/spoiler:f23a505af7]

Also, [spoiler:f23a505af7]does the fact that these guys are all wrapped up in the flag make it pretty certain that the pro-reg guys are going to win Civil War? Or did we already know that?[/spoiler:f23a505af7]

I'm pretty sure that Ares could kick the God-loving snot out of Thor.

Thor = God of Thunder
Ares = God of War
Since fighting is akin to "war" one would think fighting Ares would go something like this.
*two nerds sit down to play chess*
"Hi I'm Albert"
"Hi I'm Bill, God of Chess."
"Oh shi..."

Bogart

God of War he may be, but I doubt Marvel are going to give up their 'Thor + Hammer > Everybody Else' policy.

SA

The Sentry is the only (non-cosmic) hero I see giving Thor a run for his money.

Maybe Hulk.

Conditional_Axe

I like that lineup, but I'm not enthusiastic about it.

I think Ares will play well there.

Also, up until now when he's been strutting around in the Yellowjacket outfit again, Pym's been pretty well retired, and concentrating more on his science, hasn't he?

If he's here, I see him in the same role he had with the WCAs, the guy who sits in the lab all the time.

Yeah, after Disassembled he went off and took a sabbatical with the Wasp, returning only when he got the opportunity to build a prison for Captain America. Nice one, Hank.

And occasionally attempts suicide.

Man, thanks for posting this. I've been holding off on subscribing to NA because I wanted to know who'd be on which team after the CW is over. Now that I know, looks like I can put that subscription in.

This book has a chance of being good, but I'm so biased against them already because of the CW. Ares and Ms. Marvel are the only ones I give a shit about right now, and possibly The Sentry if he's on the team. Overall, though, these guys lose my interest if I have to choose between them and the New Avengers.

Any bets on the Secret Avengers just becoming the New Avengers, with the addition of a few new members? This would be a good thing.

Conditional_Axe

I think a fun twist would be, especially after we see Cap's attempt to recruit Hank, that he's the one who switches sides. To have him and Jan on different teams would be kind of cool.

He also helped Spidey find his aunt in MK Spider-Man.

Not sure if that was post disassembled, though.

What was he doing in HoM? Anybody know?

I will be pretty surprised if he doesn't get killed in CW4

edit: Ms. Marvel is a huge bitch.

I have a fuzzy memory of him talking to Beast in a lab, being ticked off that he didn't matter so much since he wasn't a mutant. I'm pretty sure it was him anyway.

Yeah, that seems right. He was trying to sequence the mutant genome at Stark Industries, got told off for being "anit-mutant" because he was trying to find the scientific reason for mutation (X-gene), and then I stopped bothering to read the series.

Conditional_Axe

he was a mole for the human resistance.

Briareos

Characters schmaracters, I will be buying this series for Cho's art. Frank Cho and his big-bottomed, big-chested women.

SA

Black Widow is looking pretty manly right there... She's supposed to have big knockers. :?

Conditional_Axe

she had an operation.

she goes by Nate, now.

The Laughing Man

I don't think [spoiler:f017ba8c64]Sentry[/spoiler:f017ba8c64] would be on the team considering that [spoiler:f017ba8c64]he's working for Nick Fury right now[/spoiler:f017ba8c64]

[spoiler:f017ba8c64]For all we know the pro-reg people will lose and this new Avengers team is like Freedom Force, these guys all messed up during the Civil War arch in some way and now the government, or Nick Fury who I think will take back SHIELD when this is all said and done, is making them attone for it by fighting crime. If the Sentry is on the team, I can only see him there in a control capacity because he kicked the shit out of Iron Man in a recent issue of Iron Man.[/spoiler:f017ba8c64]

I could be worng, but Bendis (who is writing both Avengers' books) I think said in a recent Wizard Magizne interview that Ares would beat Thor in a fight. That's not to say that Marvel won't bring the editorial smackdown on any arcs that have Thor losing a fight to anyone but Hulk, but on the other hand, I guess they usually let Bendis do his own thing, so who knows?

Wait, what? When was that revealed?
