Marvel's Secret Wars Cartoon Will Premiere June 17 On Disney XD

First announced at last year's San Diego Comic Con, Marvel's Avengers animated series will be retitled Avengers: Secret Wars for its fourth season, and that new season kicks off next month, according to a press release. Constant relaunching of series under different titles and a never-ending cycle of blockbuster events has worked so well for comic book sales, Marvel is hoping to apply the same concept to its animated universe. Additionally, the Wars can hardly be considered Secret when they're being promoted heavily in Disney XD media releases.

In any case, to build hype for the premiere, Disney will debut six daily animated shorts on its on demand platforms beginning June 2, which will familiarize viewers with new characters Captain Marvel, Black Panther, Ms. Marvel, Ant-Man, Wasp, and Vision with a flashback story explaining their powers. Here's the series description:

Picking up right after the events of season three "Ultron Revolution," the fourth season finds Tony Stark trapped in another dimension. While the Avengers muster all of their knowledge and strength to try and find a way to bring him back, they are attacked by a new Cabal of villains who scatter the mighty heroes across space and time. With the help of the Black Panther's new team, including Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, Ant-Man, Wasp and Vision, the Avengers must reunite in time to save the universe.

And the summaries for the first two episodes, which will air together on June 17:
