West Coast Avengers is the name of several comic book titles featuring the team the West Coast Avengers and published by Marvel Comics, beginning with the original West Coast Avengers comic book series which debuted in 1984.

Publication history

The West Coast Avengers first appear in a four-issue limited series published from September to December 1984. The series was written by Roger Stern and drawn by Bob Hall and Brett Breeding. This was followed by a 102-issue series of the same name that ran from October 1985 to January 1994. The series was initially written by Steve Englehart and drawn by Al Milgrom and Joe Sinnott. It was the first spin-off series for the Avengers. From issue #42 to 57, the title was written and illustrated by John Byrne. The series was renamed Avengers West Coast on the cover of issue #47 (Aug. 1989) and in the indicia in issue #48 (Sept. 1989). Writers Roy and Dann Thomas and artist Paul Ryan became the new creative team with issue #60 and Dave Ross replaced Ryan with issue #71. The second series was accompanied by eight annuals published from 1986 to 1993.

In 2018, a new incarnation of the West Coast Avengers appeared in a third volume of West Coast Avengers as part of the "Fresh Start". This series was cancelled as of issue #10 cover dated June 2019.
