While I'm not a fan of a secret history suddenly being revealed and inserted into regular continuity, the idea of this team of 'Avengers' forming in 1959 was a fun part of the recent 'New Avengers' storyline. Nick Fury essentially gathered a team of mercenaries who could barely stand each other to fight against a Nazi threat. Having characters like Sabretooth and Kraven the Hunter together felt like a forced idea but Brian Michael Bendis made the idea work. Now Howard Chaykin, the artist on the previous story, is back handling both art and writing duties.
