Also revealed at the show, was a S.H.I.E.L.D comic book series by none-other-than Mark Waid himself. The author has had his share of announcements this weekend with the Princess Leia title that we shared with you yesterday. The first issue features the rare debut of some fresh interiors by Carlos Pacheco himself. Comics Alliance wrote up the story and shared that the series is going to be full of done-in-one stories that tell a complete tale in the span of one issue. The team of artists is also going to be rotating in-and-out with Pacheco only doing the first comic's interiors. The Mike Deodato cover features the Avengers, The Thing, Spider-Man, Storm, and some added the cast members from the Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. television show. The promotional image for the series includes Fitz, Fitz' Monkey, Melinda May, and Skye.

Also revealed at the con was the surprise abrupt to ending to the Cyclops creative team of Russell Dauterman and Greg Rucka. The team is departing the series as of Issue #5. Joining the new book is John Layman and Javier Garon. Rucka apparently got too busy with other novel projects, and Dauterman was just announced as the new Thor artist. Bleeding Cool ran this comment from Marvel senior Editor Nick Lowe;

Really sad that Greg had to step off, but his novel schedule was getting really intense – we’ll see him back in the X-world really soon.
