The much-awaited comic book "The All-New, All-Different Avengers" will feature newly popular female Marvel and Thor.

The comic will premiere this fall, reported the Verge.

Last October, Ms Marvel #1 went into its seventh reprinting, a rare milestone for a new comic that shows how much the character and writing resonates with readers.

Meanwhile, the first five issues of the new female-led Thor series outsold its predecessor by 30 per cent.

Announced last fall, the event promises to change the entire Marvel multi verse, with the main and alternate continuities being smashed together and rewritten. As a part of that process, 33 ongoing series will come to an end next month, making way for new series to launch later this year.
 

Marvel plans to announce who will join Ms Marvel and Thor on the new Avengers series on a week-by-week basis.
