Here's a look at New Avengers #22 from writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Mike Deodato, in stores February 29.

The final battle between the New Avengers and the Dark Avengers. And not everyone makes it out alive!

And poor Wolverine is stuck in the middle. Who to hit? Decisions, decisions.

The New Avengers face off against the Dark Avengers in New Avengers #20, in stores January 11.

'Revengers resemble!'

As rallying crys go it's pretty weak, but so is the name 'Revengers,' and any team with D-Man on the roster.

The really amazing thing about this is, I have every confidence that Brian Michael Bendis will turn this team of D-listers into a force to be reckoned with, because that's just how he rolls. Any guy who voluntarily writes like a dozen titles a month is a guy who likes a challenge, and turning this team into a threat to the likes of Luke Cage, Wolverine, Spider-Man, and The freakin' THING - is a challenge.

Wonder Man is, apparently, pissed at the Avengers for reforming - he sees them as a threat to the world, and he's got pretty much Bendis's entire tenure on the title as a legitimate argument in his favor. Now, how that concern for the world makes him go all evil, and drives him to recruit a bunch of unemployed nutcases in spandex, that's yet to be explained. As is D-Man's involvement - longtime Captain America fans know that D-Man is a hardcore Cap loyalist, and I have to think it would take a lot to convince him to turn on a team that was formed under Cap's auspices, but then again, maybe he's got a mad-on for this particular group of Avengers since being passed over for Squirrel Girl as the Cage baby's nanny.

The Avengers vs. Revengers battle takes place in the upcoming New Avengers Annual #1, and it reunites Bendis with Secret War artist Gabriele Dell’Otto in what promises to be a battle for the ages. Not kidding. My sense about this one is, Bendis wants you to think it's a big goof.

So that he can blow your mind with like, one of the best books of the year.

This is all just educated guesswork, from a fan of Bendis from way back in his Sam & Twitch days. We'll see how it plays out when the Revengers take their wacky line-up and goofy name to the front door of Avengers Mansion on September 7.
