Avengers panel, and more: Comic Book Resources reports from the Avengers panel at Comic-Con, at which several announcements were made:
* Although CBR's front-page summary teases that Warren Ellis is now Marvel-exclusive, there's no mention of that in the article itself; I presume it's an accidental omission. Rumors that Ellis will take over Iron Man were confirmed, with Adi Granov stepping in as the series' regular artist.
* Another rumor was put to rest as Ed Brubaker and Steve Epting were named as the new creative team on Captain America beginning in November. Brubaker talks about his plans here.
* Alan Heinberg, a writer for Fox Television's The O.C., will launch a Young Avengers series with Marvel-exclusive artist Jimmy Cheung early next year. "It's not what you think," EIC Joe Quesada assured the audience. "It's nothing like you're thinking, it's one of the most inventive series we've come along in a long time ..."
* CBR also talks with John Romita Jr. about his 12-issue run on Wolverine with Mark Millar, which begins in October.
* The Pulse notes a new Marvel Team-Up series, by Robert Kirkman and Scott Kolins, will kick off in November.
