Marvel recently revealed an new series titled Avengers Assemble, where a team comprised of Wasp, Hawkeye, Hercules, She-Hulk, Photon, Night Thrasher, Lightning, Wonder Man, Shang-Chi, and Lightspeed will go on globe-trotting, single-issue missions that focus on fast-paced adventure. Written by Steve Orlando and drawn by artists including Cory Smith, Scot Eaton, Marcelo Ferreira and Valentina Pinti, the series will apparently bring back the Avengers' matching jackets from the 90s, giving the team a unified look that is seemingly previewed by Jennifer's new wardrobe.

She-Hulk is a longtime Avenger in good standing, bringing Hulk-strength to the team without her cousin Bruce Banner's unpredictable rage. The AVENG.E.R.S. are intended to recreate classic Avengers adventures with much-loved team who aren't part of the main team, which is currently dedicated to addressing the cosmic 'Tribulation Events' with Kang the Conqueror as an unlikely consultant against his rival Myrddin. However, the world doesn't stand still for any one villain, and it makes sense to have a powerhouse emergency team on call. She-Hulk's new look is a great new twist on her most iconic look, seemingly preparing her to once again fight alongside Earth's Mightiest Heroes.

Sensational She-Hulk #9 is coming June 19 from Marvel Comics, with Avengers Assemble #1 coming September 11.
