Zeb Wells's depiction of Noh-Varr, Grant Morrison's Marvel Boy, is not impressing me in Civil War YA & Runaways (or is it Runaways & YA). Given that Morrison is exclusive with DC, which Marvel writers could do justice to the character as introduced in the Marvel Knights mini?

I'd like to see Mike Mignola give it a shot.

I think Greg Pak could probably do it.

I didn't know that Noh-Varr had appeard in Civil War... as for who could handle him...
I always wished that Marvel Boy had been shoehorned into the Ulimate Universe as Morrison had originally wished. In which case, I think Ellis could kick the shit (can I say that?) of this concept. Have the Ultimate FF encounter SHIELD's prison and go from there.

Ellis sounds like the best bet, to me.
I'm honestly not that opposed to Wells' take on him. The art is a much bigger sticking point for me with CW:YA/R than the story.Expletive Deleted
