Y'know, I haven't been a fan of Bendis on the Avengers books lately, but I wouldn't mind taking a stab at a Bendis-based cosmic book. I think it'd be really interesting to see how such a grounded, realistic author would handle something like the Cosmic books.
BUT ONLY ONE PLEASE.

Hell I'd take this over X-Men related lol. Though I love cosmic stuff but am not a fan of most of Bendis' recent 616 stuff, I'd give it a look at least.

To be honest I just want someone to continue using the cosmic characters. I love Rocket, Gamora and co.
Apparently the Guardians of the Galaxy movie will be about the modern incarnation so I guess Marvel will be bigging this team up as much as possible.

Yeah I'm SO excited about the movie! And anything that involves Nova, Quasar, Warlock, Gamora, Moondragon, Rocket, etc., I am so down for. But if Bendis ruins these titles, I will be fuuurious. I agree with Grief, ONLY ONE PLEASE!

I am a Bendis fan -I have been really critical of his stuff lately but only because I feel like he's rehashing the same stories over and over now in Avengers and isn't really bringing it like he was at a few years ago.
I'm also a huge fan of Marvel cosmic. So I think a fresh take from Bendis on one of my favorite corners of the Marvel U would be awesome for both him and the line.

That's my biggest problem with Bendis as of late. I read all of New Avengers before and I enjoyed Disassembled and DD and such but his Avengers since the Heroic Age is just a full on rehash of "Bendis Greatest Hits" it just is not reading that well. The dialogue all sounds off as it could fit anyone and seeing Dark Avengers again and Osborn again and Ultron again and Hood again is just meh.
I'd give Bendis a shot on Cosmic if he went there as it would be hard to rehash this stuff so maybe we'd see some fresh stuff perhaps.

I would really be down for seeing Bendis do a Drax solo book. While he's currently best known for his time on Avengers, Bendis is still best - to me - on a noir-ish, dark, centered book. His Daredevil, Alias, the early plots of NA, and even his time on Moon Knight (which is good, if just REALLY REALLY REALLY drawn out).
But I'd love to see a cosmic noir book. As much as I loved Nova and GotG, they were all really big, dramatic, flashy super-hero stories. Something focus and gritty would go great imo. Maybe focus on Wraith even, lots of room for Bendis to play with him - although the "not talking" thing might not go well with Bendis.
