Marvel revealed the upcoming event slate for its publishing line at its New York Comic Con Next Big Thing panel. Borrowing a visual style from its cinematic counterpart, the comic publisher provided names, logos, dates and additional information about 6 upcoming storylines. These events will spin out of stories currently being published by Marvel, including A.X.E: Judgment Day, The Amazing Spider-Man, Avengers and the various Captain America titles.
Along with the roadmap for the 616 universe, Marvel has also provided short synopsis for each entry, which can be read below:
AVENGERS ASSEMBLE
Visionary writer Jason Aaron brings his nearly five year run on Avengers to an incredible end. Joined by artists Bryan Hitch, Javier Garrón, and Aaron Kuder, Aaron will tie together his work on Avengers, Avengers Forever, and the Avengers of 1,000,000 in a multiverse-spanning saga that sees the Avengers go to war against an unprecedented army of villains and prove why they’re the Mightiest Heroes of All Earths!
DARK WEB
The two spurned clones of the Marvel Universe, Madelyne Pryor and Ben Reilly, team up as Goblin Queen and Chasm to unleash their revenge in this Spider-Man and X-Men crossover that pays off decades of comic book storytelling!

SINS OF SINISTER
Mister Sinister’s devious machinations yield the darkest Marvel Comics future to date in this universe-melting X-Men event.
