Jeremy Renner Teases the Formation of the West Coast Avengers in the MCU
One of the biggest questions leading up to the events of Avengers: Doomsday is the status of Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye.
A constant presence in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), Hawkeye has suited up for every previous Avengers adventure.

Now, it looks like Renner is getting ready for his next adventure.
Here Come the West Coast Avengers?
Just hours after VisionQuest mentioned Hawkeye in its first episode, Renner took to Instagram and shared a collection of West Coast Avengers comics.

For those who don’t know, Vision formed the West Coast Avengers during the Secret Wars arc when most of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes were pulled away to Battleworld.

Over the years, the team has included Hawkeye, Vision, Scarlet Witch, Wonder Man, Tigra, Mockingbird, Firebird, U.S. Agent, and War Machine among its members.
Why It Makes Sense
The decision to create the West Coast Avengers is interesting for numerous reasons.
For starters, the comic series laid the groundwork for the romance between Vision and Scarlet Witch, as well as the creation, death, and revival of their children.

Additionally, creating a West Coast Avengers would give a new group of heroes a chance to shine.
Based on the current MCU roster, Hawkeye, Shang-Chi, Kate Bishop, Wonder Man, Moon Knight, U.S. Agent, and Vision would all be natural fits.
For Hawkeye in particular, the West Coast Avengers would provide a chance to mentor the next generation.
While it remains to be seen whether the West Coast Avengers will actually assemble, things seem to be heading that way.

Perhaps we will know more by the time VisionQuest comes to an end.
