The poll is pretty black and white but I'd have to say I love it a lot more than I hate it. I've never really liked USAgent and would be happy if I never saw Iron Man anywhere other than on the big screen again, but otherwise, I love that it includes Vision (Who will hopefully develop into something more like his old self), Hank, Scarlet Witch, Hercules, and Jocasta. I'm okay with Hulk and Stature.

I like the idea of the Hulk having another shot at being an avenger and even more the proposition of having Hank redeem himself and grow and develop as a hero with a better standing in the MU (I think it's long overdue...). I too, hope the Vision will eventually become more like his old self, but I fail to see how this can happen as long as he remains more of a robotic creature (as opposed to being a synthezoid). Well, as long as he remais robotic I think two robots on the team is one robot too many. And speaking of redundancy, I think if you're gonna have the Hulk on the team then Hercules is kinda superfluous, all the more so since you have Iron Man as well... Like most people, I'm not a big fan of the USAgent; even if you want somebody on the team who rubs people the wrong way, there are other characters I would rather see occupying that niche. And Stature is kinda blah to me. But, BUT the writer IS NOT Brian Michael Bendis (Hallelujah!!!)

I don't like it. A lot of duplication of powers; I can't stand the Hulk; having Hulk on the team makes about as much sense as having Wanda on the team at this point, which is to say, none at all; U. S. Agent is useless; Hercules is not one of my favorites; and Stature... well, she needs to change her name to Goliath as soon as possible.
It might be interesting to see how Wanda reacts to the Vision/Stature romance, but then again, last time we saw Wanda she was an amnesiac headcase, plus I don't really want to read another love triangle with those two characters.
Hank Pym, Iron Man, Vision. Fine. Stature, okay I guess. Jocasta... maybe more interesting with Wasp dead, gives her some possible character stuff with Hank. The rest of the team, no.
Thumbs down.

Welcome to the AA board Bill!
I like this new line up better than the Avengers line ups we've had as late. I'm interested to see who will stay and who will go. I still wish we had the real Vision back, too. But I like Slott's work so I'll be reading it.
