Viv needs a costume, she sticks out.

Ramos is a 90's artist. And 90's art was no better or worse than what we have now - it's a mix of good and bad like every decade ever.

Young Cyclops, Ms. Marvel, Viv, Cho, and Miles?

When's Ghost Rider?

Poor Sam.
My thoughts exactly but I guess since no one else lives in LA anymore he's stuck.
Seriously, DD was his one chance at a crossover.

Based on the full interview, this team looks like it will be doing some non-traditional super hero stuff by being activists and socially minded, so having her without a costume makes sense. Plus she's new to the hero game, so she may not have a persona yet other than "Vision's kid".

I don't hate him, I just don't care about him either.
I also don't particularly care about Rider. As a New Warriors classic reader, I remember the absolute crap the character was for years. Nova first appeared in 1976.
He didn't get a worthwhile storyline until 2005. 27 years. 27 YEARS!
Just because you like Annihilation Nova doesn't mean you can ignore all this:
Trassssssssssh. Sure he got better eventually, but you can't throw shade at Kid Nova and ignore the long time sadness that was Richard Rider. How can you be the most boring character on a team with black Batman with a skateboard, cheap Spider-Man, lady Namor, and Justice. JUSTICE!
well Tom Brevoort is calling Cyclops "Kid Hitler", so, there is some character assassination going on
Lashley
Why does he wear the mask!?
It's because he's hated in the Marvel universe, thanks to older Scott Summers being deemed a terrorist.
That's why he's likening him to Hitler.

Ok yes New Warriors volume 2 was trash but Volume 1 was pretty good for the most part especially when you consider how awful comics in general where during that era.
Forever Yesterday which was a Nova centric arc where they restored his classic costume was particularly good
Admittedly I've only seen his work on ASM and wasn't a fan there, but maybe his style will be more in keeping here working with less mature heroes.

Putting three people who are currently on the real Avengers team on the Young Avengers team seems like kind of a demotion.
Like when they put Kitty Pryde on the New Mutants after she had been on the X-Men for years and she called Professor X a Jerk.

I was kind of digging Ramos on Extraordinary.

The man managed to make me like comic Coulson in two pages, so I don't doubt he'll be able to bring lost sheep back to the Church of Cyclops.
The muscle shirt was hot shit for me at the time. That last one was garbo, but I loved dicks run. And if waid is about to give young Scott some more shine, I'm all in for that too. Easily the best of the o5
Fuck no. Young Jean is terrible.
We'll probably need to wait until Civil War II concludes to find out. But I'm assuming that Marvel Now 2.0 will include a new Avengers lineup.

Ooh, when was that? I thought only Ales Kot could do a good comic Coulson.
There's been art released of them burning their Avengers ID cards.

Cool, it's the All-Heterosexual Young Avengers.
Sam and Miles I don't know, but they sure love to put Ms. Marvel front and centre when any book needs a super group background. I love her book and character, but sometimes it really feels like they're trying too hard to make her happen. Like when she was sitting on the front row, centre, during Sam Wilson's speech for Rhodes. You'd think she was his next of kin with such treatment when she never even met him.

Young Jean would ruin this team like she ruins every other team

First issue of Waid's SHIELD, the opening pages show Coulson enduring torture and not breaking... by reciting the names of all the X-Men. In the order they joined the team. I loved that detail.

Are they all floating?
the one in the same class as most of these characters

All-New, All-Different is likely getting a reboot of some sort, like Ewing's New Avengers is becoming USAvengers. The question is will Waid be writing the new flagship book? I'd throw it at Ewing to be honest.
Given Waid writing this, I'm surprised that new Wasp isn't on this team as well.

Speaking of which do people want Wiccan,Hulking, and Kate Young Avengers? That seems like a demotion too.

Robbie is like a young adult compared to these kids.

I'm thinking she will be, they're just holding her back. Too perfect a fit and she's on their side in the Divided We Stand pic.

I hope Ramos stays on this so he never touches Spider-Man again. Giuseppe Camuncoli does the same super-kinetic style but miles better than him.
so then make him a mentor then. its not like theres a huge gap in ages. and no way is amadeus freshman age. id question scott too
hes a background character given attention. people forget he exists all the time or simply dont care, and he doesnt have anyone in the superhero world as a mentor, which he really needs
another reason for Cullen to show up.
Ah, okay. I didn't realise that they were about to mix things up again.
Young Jean could always show up and out someone.
