Neither the cover nor the concept art are by Claire Roe so I wonder which design they went with.

I love the idea, personally. I'm glad Wasp is being used for this storyline. But it does suck that it's the first title ever starring Janet and Janet alone (and it's a one-shot to boot).
After the Superior Spider-Man and Infamous Iron Man, I've been wondering if any of the other heroes would get an alliterative villain-cosplaying-as-them turn. Tyrant Thor? (secretly Skurge) Wicked Wasp? (secretly Rita DeMara) Demonic Daredevil? (secretly Bleakheart!)
This won't be that, but it could be fun to see a villainous 'Wasp.'
It's happened before. In Champions, Nadia got mutated in Weirdworld and fought against the rest of the team (except Nova, who was also brainwashed).

In all the excitement about Janet starring in a book, I didn't even think about the creative team until just now. Excited to see that Jordie Bellaire is writing it; I really liked her writing in the BOOM! Buffy comics. I'm less familiar with Claire Roe, but I like what I see based on a quick skim of her Twitter.

I think it's nice to finally have a story focusing on Janet, after all this time. The cover shows several Avengers, so showing YJ along with the rest of the founding members doesn't necessarily means it's going to focus on that old story. Come to think of it, I wonder what Tigra is doing on that cover anyway.
The sollicit reads weird to me though, so maybe you're right about the focus of it. "... Janet is no stranger to mental illness; she spent years trying to redeem ex-husband Hank Pym despite his violent breakdowns." I don't think I have read the same comic books as those who wrote this cause they seem to be implying that Hank spent years and years being violent, and Janet spent all those years finding excuses for him. It makes me a bit skeptical about continuity here.
I'll hold my judgment for now because I'm really happy Jan gets a bit of spotlight, and I'm crossing my fingers at the thought that this could bring her back up front in publication. I would just hate to see her being propped up by sinking another character.

Currently looking for a pull list... Does near-mint West Coast Avengers count?

Actually Janet's title logo is exactly the same from the one-shot except yellow instead.
Huh? The logo on that page you just posted is completely different (and is what they SHOULD be using, but apparently aren't). The one on the solicited Darkhold: Wasp cover is the logo from Unstoppable Wasp.
