USA Today previewed the upcoming return to an optimistic status quo in the Marvel Universe in May.
According to Marvel editor in chief Joe Quesada, "Heroes will be heroes again. They've gone through hell and they're back to being good guys — a throwback to the early days of the Marvel Universe, with more of a swashbuckling feel."
Leading the way will be a relaunched Avengers title, reuniting Iron Man, Captain America and Thor. Series writer, Brian Michael Bendis promises that "The 'brand new day' of the Heroic Age presents a tonal shift to optimism, a world filled with hope but quite hellish villains. The heroes realize it's a blue-sky world worth protecting."
And according to Quesada, this return to the heroic age has nothing to do with Marvel's sale to Disney. "There is no sanitizing of the Marvel books at all. Our philosophy here is to just keep telling good stories."
