Marvel Reveals New Avengers Team From Old Man Logan Timeline

The Marvel Universe as depicted in Old Man Logan may be a pretty awful place, but at least it still has the Avengers. Marvel gave fans their first look at this dystopian version of Earth's Mightiest Heroes with the announcement of a new comic book miniseries titled Avengers of the Wastelands.
