Warren Ellis taking over Secret Avengers

According to this story on the Marvel website, Nick Spencer is only going to do one three-issue arc for the Fear Itself tie-in, and then Ellis is taking over. Steve will still be leading the team, but it's not clear from the interview whether he'll be leading it as Cap or as Steve Rogers.

Has Ellis written Steve much before? He's certainly done great stuff with Tony...

I wonder what Marvel threw his way to make him take up a monthly series again? He was always a guy for his short story arcs. Ellis did Ultimate Steve in the Ultimate Gah Lak Tus arc. He also writes a neat Ultimates Sam. His Ults Steve had a come to Jesus moment when he realised that most of the scientists he came in contact with didn't believe in God, and it was such a powerful moment.

So yeah, I'll give an eye and some money when Ellis comes on the title.

Hells yeah! I am optimistic.

Apparently Brubaker wanted Ellis to take the title when he was gone and Ellis just complied.
