List of New Avengers members
None
None
The New Avengers is a team originally formed due to a mass breakout at the super villain prison, the Raft. The team then became a splinter group of Avengers that chose not to comply with federal superhuman registration, as opposed to the government-sanctioned team gathered in The Mighty Avengers, which itself was supplanted by a different government-sanctioned team in the series Dark Avengers. The team was reformed in June 2010 as part of the "Heroic Age" storyline.
