That's a wrap on all of the West Coast Avengers appearances between the end of the original limited series and the start of the first ongoing.

You made an effort to shine a light on the team before the new series began.

There's a 10-month gap between the end of the original WCA limited series and the start of the monthly book.

During that time, the WCA would appear in five different books (11 issues total) to establish their place in the Marvel universe.

Starting next week, we'll be looking at those appearances.
