Marvel Comics’ next big event will see the Avengers have to take on Red Hulk.
Marvel has announced that a new five-issue event series titled Avengers: Armageddon will officially launch this June. Following the events of One World Under Doom, Captain America and Wolverine: Weapons of Armageddon, the event will kick off a new era for the Avengers and the entire Marvel Universe.
A description of the event reads, “Avengers: Armageddon leads to a transformative shakeup of the team—the likes of which haven’t been felt since Avengers: Disassembled. The saga begins in Latveria where Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, A.K.A. Red Hulk, claims Doom’s homeland for himself, igniting a global conflict. When the Avengers assemble against him, explosive escalations will force them to unleash a power that changes how the world views their mightiest heroes forever. This pivotal chapter will lead directly into a new era of Avengers starting later this year.
