The West Coast Avengers first appear in a four-issue limited series published from September to December 1984.[1] The series was written by Roger Stern and drawn by Bob Hall and Brett Breeding.[2] This was followed by a 102-issue series of the same name that ran from October 1985 to January 1994.[3] 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.[4] 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".[5][6] This series was cancelled as of issue #10 cover dated June 2019.[7][8]
