oh fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu** yes.
So an annual in December... and a War of the Realms tie-in?
[quote]Will there have some special project for The Champions (annual, crossover) in 2019 ?
Here’s a secret for you - There will be a Champions Annual in December 2018 and a crossover with an event part way through 2019![/quote]
And there's potential roster changes coming...
[quote]Does Marvel can ask you to change the casting of the Champions, or are you the only one to decide ? Have got your a list of potentials candidates to join the team ?
So far I’ve been the one to decide who is on the team, though editorial has made suggestions and some characters I’ve asked about have been tied up in other things.
Yes, there are characters I’m interested in having on the team in the future. Keep reading and you’ll see…[/quote]
I wonder who? And does this mean the event they're tying into will prompt a departure or two?

Oh, wow. I'm trying to think of how the Champions could possibly tie into War of the Realms.....and I can't even think of any other event being built up rn.

One, Hercules gets involved and calls Amadeus in. Two, a repowered Jane asks her old Avengers teammates for assistance - i.e. Kamala, Miles, Sam, and Nadia. Or three, Midgard invaded, all heroes get involved.
I don't understand why getting an annual is a big deal, last weeks issue felt like one.

Really the most positive surprise is Zub is also writing it, which it makes more likely the annual will actually be important and worth reading (compared to most annual's these days).
It'll probably be the repercussions from Weirdworld, as I'm guessing it'll be released after #27. Perhaps involving Sam getting new powers?
Thank goodness for digital, as these direct market numbers don't look good.

Digital, and volumes since I bet it is easier for kids to get their parents to get them one big thing than multiple trips for a small.

I haven't bought a physical copy in years, that's why I know these aren't fully referencing accurate numbers. I buy all my content digitally.

Probably due to the general prestige a title carries for lasting long enough and being considered "worth it" enough to have an Annual.
Here's the solicits for issue #27 and the annual
