I LOVE IT! THIS IS THE NEXT BIG THING! A SLEEPER HIT GUARANTEED! A FUTURE MCU MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope the series would remain Avengers-free and this be their own thing!
“Another new wrinkle: Half the team goes to school. They’ve got hours of operation, and if they get stuck in Zimbabwe, somebody’s going to have to write the absentee slips.” I'll be buying it for the first few issues just to see if I'm wrong but I don't see how you can run an Avengers level team like that. I might have to head canon it as Avengers Academy Volume Two just to enjoy it...
Glad they are using Supreme Power Nighthawk. Easily the best version of that character. Hopefully we see him team up with Black Panther at some point.
Pull List:
Marvel Comics: Venom, X-Men, Black Panther, Captain America, Eternals, Warhammer 40000.
DC Comics: The Last God

I think out of all the new announcements so far this is the one I'm most excited about. Squadron Supreme/Supreme Power characters and Thundra are a few of my faves. Throwing in a character from the New Universe is pretty damn cool too. I hope this series does well.
I guess Thundra is more of a Big Barda analogue for the team. Both are very tall and can't fly and hot headed.
Nighthawk from "Supreme Power,"
SOLD!!

oh damn nighthawk never thought I see him again.
In my head the 616 Squadron Supreme were the original Night Thrasher in Nighthawk/Batman's part, Thundra as PowerPrincess/WW, Songbird as DoctorSpectrum/GL, Quicksilver as Whizzer/Flash, Namor(natch') as Amphibian/Aquaman and... Radioactive Man as Hyperion/Supes. A bit of an anti-hero Squadron. Just daydreaming.
But I will definitely still pick this up. I've always loved JLA/Superman pastiches and have pretty much always enjoyed Robinson's work, I'll even forgive him for Cry For Justice.
