New Warriors
The New Warriors is a fictional superhero team appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. They traditionally consisted of teenage and young adult heroes, and were often seen to serve as a junior counterpart to The Avengers in much the same way that the New Mutants/X-Force did with the X-Men. They made a cameo appearance in ''The Mighty Thor'' #411 (December 1989) and made their full debut in ''The Mighty Thor'' #412. Over the years, the New Warriors, in their various incarnations, have been featured in five different volumes.

Over time, the team was joined by Silhouette, Rage, Hindsight Lad, Bandit, Timeslip, Dagger, Dark ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
