Marvel’s Mightiest Women Assemble!

In May, an all new era begins with Marvel’s Secret Wars. Now, Marvel has given a first look at A-Force #1, backed by the creative team G. Willow Wilson (Ms. Marvel), Marguerite Bennett (Angela: Asgard’s Assassin, James Patterson’s Max Ride: First Flight) and Jorge Molina (X-Men).

As the Secret Wars begin, the Avengers as you know them are no more – and a new team will lead the way. In a secluded corner of Battleworld lies Arcadia, an island nation fiercely protected by a team of Avengers the likes of which has never been seen before. So who are these Avengers? Series co-writer G. Willow Wilson weighed in.

“She-Hulk, Dazzler, Medusa, Nico Minoru and other fan favorites will take charge. We’ve purposefully assembled a team composed of different characters from disparate parts of the Marvel U, with very different power sets, identities and ideologies.”

And there came a day unlike any other, when Earth’s Mightiest Heroines found themselves united against a common threat. Fighting to protect the small sliver of their world that’s left, they stand tall, shoulder-to-shoulder, ready to take on the horde. Ushering in a new day with a rallying cry heard across Battleworld – “A Force, Assemble!”
