Marvel Fans Believe the New Avengers Team Has Already Made Its Debut

Marvel enthusiasts are buzzing with theories that the next Avengers team might have already made its debut.

While many of the original Avengers remain active, discussions have shifted towards potential new formations like the Secret Avengers or Dark Avengers.

These speculations were fueled by the introduction of various heroes over the past years.

A pivotal point in these discussions is the upcoming release of ‘Thunderbolts*’ next year, which groups several antiheroes and villains, reminiscent of DC’s Suicide Squad.

Theory: Forget the Dark Avengers, is ‘Thunderbolts*’ really setting up the Secret Avengers?

There’s a twist though: the film’s title ends with an asterisk, sparking speculation about a possible name change by the movie’s conclusion to something akin to ‘[Something] Avengers.’

Fans on Reddit are diving deep into this theory. HeadScissorGang suggested, ‘that * is definitely because they wanted to make a “[Something] Avengers” movie without damaging what the word “Avengers” means to the average moviegoer.’

BuffaloNo9011 agreed, highlighting the distinct narrative differences between the teams and praising Kevin Feige’s knack for misdirection.

The ensemble’s star power, coupled with a compelling storyline, could successfully integrate them into the MCU as a new type of Avengers team.

This move could also lessen the burden on the next ‘official’ Avengers team set to face Doctor Doom in ‘Avengers: DOOMSDAY’ and ‘Avengers: Secret Wars.’

Cosmic-Horror-Cat on Reddit aligns with the notion, predicting the Thunderbolts* might evolve into the Dark Avengers with hidden sinister motives.

We’ll just have to wait until next year to see how these theories pan out.
