The artwork, obviously, but I feel that the writing still isn't doing anything to make Squirrel Girl more than a running-joke (only two issues in and she's facing Galactus, likely so that the writers can do that horrible "beat-em-from-off-panel" gag and make a story out of it).
She is Kamala Khan... The Magnificent Ms. Marvel!
I don't hate Squirrel Girl but I just don't see myself ever buying a solo book of hers, sorry but that's how I feel. For her fans, I hope you enjoy it though.
Having said that if she's ever in a team book that I read and becomes a member of the team I'd have no problem with that, just can't see myself ever buying a solo ongoing unfortunately.
Really hope they don't change the Maximoff Twins' origins.
Good Marvel characters- Bring Them Back!!!

"This is me being reasonable"
I do like Samnee's art on the cover to Fantastic Four. X-Men Giant-Size sounds like an interesting (if odd) collection. But Spider-Gwen is such a weird ongoing title. It's like they took the pitch name and the name trending across the internet and were like "yep, that's the series title."

MU GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY #1 (Yes, an adapted "kids" book because it will likely be better than the main series featuring these characters.)
GUARDIANS TEAM-UP # 2 (depending on the writer)
NEW AVENGERS #30 (cant get over how sweet and "right" it is that Cap Britain is strongly featuring in this series, this incursion story was always right up his alley.)
AVENGERS #41
STAR WARS #2
DARTH VADER #1 & 2
Wolverines #5-8 (Soule has been killing it so far and is doing Wolvie some justice. Wondering what his Sinister will be like. Big shoes to fill after Gillen's excellent UXM run with the character.)
THANOS VS. HULK #3 (WAAAARR Starlin!)

SPIDER-MAN 2099 #9 (Pretty crazy stuff!)
Really want to love the Black Vortex books but the creative teams have really blowing it on the basic books.
Maybe/HOPEFULLY Humphries will surprise me...perhaps this "War Buddy" of Quill's that their teasing will be some one from the Annihilation era team?
I notice Mantis is featured on the cover of GotG #24, she would qualify...although they'll probably just kill her off and later regret it when/if she's featured in the movie sequel. Also, they REALLY need to darken Star Lord's hair BADLY! It always looks wrong. The animated series, the movie, the DnA GotG comics all have it brown or a much darker dirty blonde/ALMOST brown. The comics with the Platinum blonde Star lord looks SO out of place, he looks more like DC's Grifter or Constantine.
Not sure about Darth Vader yet but will probably end up passing on it. Also, the weeklies are a no go for me. I struggled to keep up with two DC Weeklies at $2.99 so I'm going to pass on the two Marvel ones at $3.99.

Wonder if Moon Knight will continue past issue 12? If so, I wouldn't mind seeing a new team step in. I might pick up 12 depending on the preview, if I do, that'll be four issues total since the relaunch.
Otherwise, nothing.
