There's going to be a Champions relaunch with Zub continuing to write, and Steve Cummings on pencils.

They say Champions will be the "Legion of Superheroes for Marvel" along with this picture which features some familiar faces.
Along with Red Locust and Patriot it looks like we'll also have a mutant with Prodigy.
And Sam is still without his helmet it seems.
I'm pretty sure that's the Victor Alvarez "Power Man." Not Prodigy.
That’s weird they added Powerman when they have Amadeus Cho still on the team. I mean I know Victors powers are more based in Chi but still it’s a bit weird. But hey nice to have him back since the New Avengers.

Words to live by.
You all are right I couldn't make it out properly, but I am definitely excited about this news.
I’m not a fan of the idea of the team being too big. 7/8 members should be the max.
I don't think a relaunch was needed, but I'm just glad the series is continuing in some form.
I'm undecided on the new additions. White Tiger would have been way cooler than Power Man.
Regardless if Sam truly will be powerless or they are hiding what he'll eventually become, im glad they didn't just shuffle him out the door.
Ugh...just because Luke Cage looks forgettable doesn't mean Victor has to as well. He needs a better costume. Count me among the people who feel the relaunch isn't needed. But if the book is going to be relaunched hopefully Marvel avoids Super Hero City USA in favor of Chicago or Seattle.

"The Marvel EIC Chair has a certain curse that goes along with it: it tends to drive people insane, and ultimately, out of the business altogether. It is the notorious last stop for many staffers, as once you've sat in The Big Chair, your pariah status is usually locked in." Christopher Priest
More characters are set to appear than just who was on the cover. Sounding more and more like it'll be a rotating ensemble arc to arc.

Im assuming you're referring to New York. The Champions go all over the place. Id argue they've been operating outside of New York more than in.
What are everybody's hopes for future members, now that we know we're getting a "legion"?
