I think it would be incredibly disappointing if they came up with a group of super-agents, named them Secret Warriors, and that was the end of it. Secret Warriors was the name of the comic, not the team, and there's SO MUCH other mythology from the book that they can pull from.

In no way do I want a page by page adaption, I'm just concerned that they're not going to tap into it's full potentional. Problem with live action media, especially series, is that you have to pay all the actors, if you want them available or face really big logistical problems, if you want them only from time to time. This problems grows exponentially with the more actors in this "mode". So they are hugely limited by format. In comics and books, any character could be in any issue, since it is limited only by the fantasy and skill of the author. Sadly, in live action, this is not possible, so they are, in a way, using the full potential, but it is full potential of the format and budget, rather than the source material.
