Issue Description

The CIVIL WAR is over, and from now on, THIS is the new face of the MARVEL UNIVERSE—THE INITIATIVE! Whose side were you on? Well, if you were pro-registration, then there’s one hell of a price to pay. You’re in the army now. Every last one of you. Fall in with YELLOWJACKET, WAR MACHINE, SHE-HULK, JUSTICE, and THE GAUNTLET as they train the heroes of tomorrow for the super-powered conflicts of today! Marvel’s army of super heroes has just become a super hero army! Also featuring THE MIGHTY AVENGERS and a new generation of Marvels.

The registration act has passed now all heroes must be trained in order to wear the cape and cowl. A new bus load of recruits come to Stamford, Connecticut to start that training. The big question is do they really know what they signed up for?

Volume Description

Avengers: The Initiative Volume 1

The Initiative, a plan to train and police super heroes across America. Each state will have their own team. The series was launched after the Civil War crossover and started initially as a 6 issue mini-series but was upgraded to an ongoing series due to large pre-ordering numbers of the series. The series is about the students that have enrolled to the 50 States Initiative after the Superhuman Registration Act had been passed by the US Congress. The series lasted until issue 35, but was somewhat continued in Avengers Academy, with many of the teachers of this series returning.
