No, not these guys:
I mean, of course, these two, Captain America (Sam Wilson) and Thor (Jane Foster):
The cover, Marvel Comics confirmed, is for All-New, All-Different Avengers #4 as painted by Alex Ross. The pair share billing in the series, a new Avengers comic book that’s launching alongside a slew of other Marvel Comics #1s over the course of the next six months or so, establishing a new status quo for the Marvel Universe after the events of Secret Wars.
But on this new cover posted to twitter by Marvel.com editor Ben Morse, they’ve gotten a lot closer, sharing a mid-flight kiss.
His caption: “January 2016: Earth’s Mightiest Kiss.”
