YOUNG AVENGERS RETURN!—sort-of…

[The Night Phantom]

From Newsarama, reporting on the “Mondo Marvel” panel at last weekend’s Baltimore Comic Con:

A fan asked about Young Avengers. Brevoort said that fans who want an ongoing series that picks up where the first volume left off are "going to have to continue to wait I'm afraid."

But he and Cebulski announced that there will be a five issue mini-series in January that will focus on the Young Avengers, with each issue done by a different writer and ocusing on a different one or two characters. The writers will be:

Ed Brubaker - Patriot in #1.
Brian Reed - Hulkling meeting Captain Mar-vell in #2.
Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa - Wiccan and Speed in #3.
Paul Cornell - The Vision in issue #4.
"We haven't said who's doing the fifth issue. So there will be more Young Avengers stuff on the way."

I’m not wowed by the concept or the writer line-up. I’m just going to wait and see.

I like to see Hulking meet Captain Mar-Vell.

Patriot by Burbaker could be a good read, the others don't jump out at me either

I've been jonesing for any YA, so I'll probably get all of these!

Why are they teasing so much with this? So many people are clamoring for this. With there being so many unhappy fans you think they would figure out that people want this and beat us to death with it. Instead we get only hints of coming scraps.
