I'd rather see her in the same book as Carol - Ultra Girl is an old protégé of hers (back when Carol was still Ms. Marvel), and Carol's been revealed to be half-Kree herself since Suzy last appeared. Adding her to Carol's supporting cast would also give Hazmat someone her own age to interact with. It would also be interesting to see what Kamala makes of her, as she's a more standardised legacy than Kamala herself is (having the same powers).

TO KNOW HER IS TO FEAR HER: JESSICA DREW THE SPIDER-WOMAN
BE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE NEW 2024 SPIDER-WOMAN SERIES by STEVE FOXE!!!
MISSING:
Synch's Aura
Northstar and Aurora's shiny hair
Spider-Woman’s cowl costume
Orange and blue are a nice combo.
Gotta say....I'm not thrilled with the roster.
Steve and Quicksilver are great, I expected both on this team since Wanda and Sam are on the main Avengers.
Rogue is wonderful, always loved that character.
Deadpool? Why?
Psylocke is....fine, I suppose? I feel like there were better options but I got nothing against her.
And I've been out of the X-Men orbit for a long while; I don't even know who the spiky chick is, or the guy with the green helmet.
But after seeing the core Avengers roster, full of major characters with deep histories, I was hoping to see more of the same here and I feel like we didn't quite get that. With the other group doing a fair impression of the Justice League's "Big 7" I figured this book would have characters like Jean Gray, Colossus, Wasp, Ant-Man, etc.
Was really hoping to be reading both this and the main Avengers title, but I think I'm probably gonna pass on this one.

I think the logic was that she's part-Kree and should be wearing their emblem? But if you think about it, she's a Kree hero who doesn't use a Marvel name like Carol and the Vells did. She's a lot like DC's Power Girl in that respect - a Kryptonian hero who doesn't wear the Superman S usually (though she does on her current costume) and doesn't use a Super name. As such, she probably shouldn't wear the Hala star.
Spiky chick is Penance, Monet St Croix, who has also used the codename M.
Green helmet guy is Captain Krakoa. Last time he appeared it was actually Cyclops in disguise, he took a new identity briefly after being witnessed being killed, to hide the existence of the resurrection protocols. He ditched the disguise when the Protocols became public knowledge recently.
Also, if you're out of the loop, I guess you also don't know that Psylocke isn't Betsy Braddock any more. Betsy got her English body back and is now Captain Britain, and Psylocke is now Kwannon, the Japanese lady whose body she'd previously been using.
Duggan used to write Deadpool's solo and also used him in his previous Uncanny Avengers run.

No, she can switch back and forth like Arch(Angel) can.
I wonder if Firestar was considered for this book at all, though I think she's still on the main X-Men team? It's a good idea, though I would like to also see more mutants that haven't really been part of the avengers before.

For me, the Uncanny Avengers was always a team consisting of classic Avengers and X-Men characters, of the 60s-early 90s eras.
A team of seasoned veterans of both franchise teams.
