It's going to be very interesting to see if the original Thor and Cap return in the comics when their respective movies come around. They seemed to have launched Hickman's Avengers with the movie version, but quickly went away from that once the excitement for the film started to die down.

CBR-M Cool: looks like I'll be getting Spider-Man 2099 All-New All-Different Avengers and trade waiting Ms Marvel...and maybe Karnak and A-Force I didn't see Squirrel Girl and Silver Surfer...or Miracle Man...? |

That list has 45 titles on it.. they've been saying they'll be 60. That means there are at least 10 (maybe more, depending on if Star Wars and the Disney stuff counts) that haven't been announced yet.
I suspect they're saving a few things for San Diego.

There's 45 October releases, the 60 might be including stuff that launches in November or the Star Wars and related stuff, but all 45 books that will be solicited for Oct have been announced (the preview catalog retailers are receiving arrives this week I believe and Marvel will want to include everything init so customers can order it.

Besides Howard the Duck, which looks to stay pretty much the same, the strongest possibilities are possibly Daredevil and Karnak as well |

Warren Ellis's Karnak, almost for sure. I usually steer clear of Ellis's MU stuff, but his Moon Knight series was first-rate and I think this could be a great fit: Karnak's "power set" (hate that term) has always been under-exploited and Ellis is just the writer to do justice to some of its potential. I'd love it if he brought in the rest of the classic Inhumans and got away from all this Inhuamns-as-mutants thing.
The rest will depend largely on the creative team. It would be great if some of my favourites, like Doctor Strange and the Black Panther, received the treatment I think they deserve, but the odds are against it. I'm not down with Aaron's writing at all so I'll be skipping the DS series as long as he's on it.
Omega the Unknown I'll read if and only if Mary Skrenes is the writer, which I doubt.

Karnak's "power set" (hate that term) has always been under-exploited and Ellis is just the writer to do justice to some of its potential. Karnak is a martial artist who can sense the weakest point of anything, right? I wonder if that extends to the emotional aspect. It would be fun to see him find exactly the right thing to say to shatter someone's self-esteem. |

It would be fun to see him find exactly the right thing to say to shatter someone's self-esteem. He has been able to find flaws in arguments and personalities, so that doesn't seem out of his range. He also seems to be incapable of not pointing out flaws if he sees them under some writers, so that could be fun. |

"Karnak, honey, does this dress make me look fat?' "No, sweetheart. The fact that you're fat makes you look fat. That dress just makes you look purple."* *Borrowed and slightly reworked. Original exchange is from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, episode 1, Season 4, "The Freshman". |

I really like this idea, and believe Ellis is good enough to throw in some surprising aspects of Karnaks abilities. Its a strange choice of leading man for sure but filled with potential. I'd love to see him and Shang-Chi throw down...or even Iron Fist |

Yeah, I imagine it's broad enough to be applicable to questions of psychology and strategy rather than being limited to physical objects, which is how it was originally conceived IIRC. |
