CBR: Marvel Reveals Two Secret Avengers

Though my first guess was wrong about the character who turned out to be Beast, I'm still really excited to see him on this team. I feel like he's been a bit underutilized on the X-Men, and I always really liked the idea of him as an Avenger. This pick seems to indicate that the term "Secret" in the title doesn't indicate a "black ops" assassin team, given Beast's disapproval of the X-team equivalent, X-Force. Also, these teasers reveal that some of the details have been removed from the silhouettes to make their identities harder to guess. Nevertheless, I stand by most of my guesses from my previous posts, but I would like to talk a little more about the one character I couldn't pin down.

"I excel through adversity."
I still can't narrow this one down, but I do have a few more guesses. Captain Marvel (Noh-Varr) is still at the top of my list, though I express an increased degree of skepticism now that there's supposed to be a former Dark Avenger appearing in the new New Avengers line up. I'd also like to add Nova to my list of guesses, as the quote is definitely fitting for someone who's lived through Annihilation. That said, I expect this won't actually be the case. Honestly, the Avengers seem a little beneath him at this point - defending one corner of a single world isn't really much to write home about when you're regularly saving the galaxy. Not to mention it will make very little sense if he's hanging around Earth in Secret Avengers but is halfway around the Milky Way in his solo book or Realm of Kings. I know it's not new for characters to play double duty in multiple books, but the distances involved here seem to go beyond standard allowances of cognitive dissonance. Finally, now that Beast has been confirmed, I'd like to add Wonder Man to my list. We haven't seen him in a while, but he and Beast have a lot of history and make an amusing pair. I'm not sure he "excels through adversity," though he did die and come back to life once upon a time, so that's at least something in his favor. Time will tell, I suppose, I expect two more characters to be revealed tomorrow.
