Marvel: McNiven on Uncanny Avengers! Coipel on Guardians of the Galaxy?

McNiven was announced to be teaming up with Rick Remender, at SDCC '13, on Uncanny Avengers from this November, bringing his clean cut, action loving style to the heart of Remender's 'Ragnarok Now'. There really have been some great creative teams on several books since Marvel NOW! Uncanny Avengers began with Cassaday on art and currently has the fabulous Acuna, can not work out how to get the accent 'n' for the life of me, on art duties, not forgetting Coipel on issue 5. Remender really has been getting the top pedigree for his title. Being a huge fan of McNiven's work, Civil War, Old Man Logan and Guardians of the Galaxy, I can not wait to see him join Uncanny Avengers, one of my favourite Marvel titles at present.

Talking about top art talent the previously mentioned Coipel will be joining Guardians of the Galaxy, a previous McNiven title, as a fill in for a few issues, announced today during Alonso's weekly spot with Comic Book Resources, Coipel will be joining Brian Michael Bendis to help out on the title due to Sara Pichelli, the new regular artist on Guardians, unfortunately being taken ill with flu over the past few weeks, but thats all we got from Alonso as by that point he felt he had said to much already. Guardians is yet another book with a fantastic creative team behind it since launch with McNiven, Pichelli and Francavilla working on the title with Bendis. With these two announcements I can feel safe knowing that two of my favourite titles coming from Marvel will be keeping up there high artistic talent since the launch of these titles.
