UltimateKidNova:

The genesis of the book came from when Zeb was working on Amazing Spider-Man and kicked around the idea of bringing Marvel Team-Up back. Steve didn't go for it because he never liked those stories that didn't feel important to the main series. Avenging Spider-Man is Marvel Team-Up but where the stories have a major impact on Spider-Man and the Avengers.

Zeb says even though the Avengers will be a starting point for who Spider-Man teams up with, they will explore the broader Marvel Universe down the road. A lot of the fun is finding a third character who can interact with both Spidey and the Avenger in that issue.
