The New Team Assembles in 5 AVENGERS: SECRET WARS Shorts

Earlier this week, Disney XD debuted the first of six new animated shorts for Avengers: Secret Wars, the continuation of the series that began with Avengers Assemble. As part of the new season, there’s a brand new team that’s been put together by Black Panther to save the original Avengers from the Leader and his new cabal.

Today, Disney XD released the five remaining animated shorts, which continue directly from the Ms. Marvel short. In the previous short, Ms. Marvel’s enthusiasm for taking her place among Earth’s mightiest heroes was shaken once she saw the new team in action. In the remaining installments, Ms. Marvel shares her thoughts on each of her teammates as Captain America urges her not to give up on her dream.

For the first short, Black Panther takes on Ulysses Klaw and his band of Vibranium smugglers as they discover that bullets don’t work very well against the King of Wakanda.

In the second short, Ms. Marvel throws the spotlight on her personal hero, Captain Marvel. As noted by her young admirer, Captain Marvel’s adventures aren’t confined to Earth, as she confronts a group of alien criminals.


The third short turns the focus to Ant-Man and the Wasp, both of whom take their cues from their MCU incarnations. This story follows the pair as they attempt to save one of their ants from a fall down a storm drain. But getting out of that isn’t easy, even for them.

Next, the Vision tries to demonstrate his humanity by helping two trapped miners. And although Vision seems to sincerely believe that he’s as human as anyone else, the miners’ reaction to him proves otherwise.

Finally, the focus comes back to Ms. Marvel, as she relates her origin and the incident that made her decide to become a hero.

Avengers: Secret Wars will premiere on Disney XD with two back-to-back episodes on Saturday, July 17, at 11:30 a.m. ET.
