Posted on by

This Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, Marvel will spotlight some of its most prominent super heroes as well as acclaimed Asian and AAPI talent from throughout the comics industry in new stories and variant covers.

This year’s AAPI Heritage Month Variant Covers were crafted by best-selling cover artist Inhyuk Lee. Across four gorgeous pieces, Lee depicts some of Marvel’s brightest new stars including Iron Fist, Taegukgi, and Sister Dagger as well as longtime fan favorite Sister Grimm (Nico Minoru) of Runaways fame, in his iconic, breathtaking style! These special variant covers will run on four titles in May, with each one also containing a backup story starring these four breakout characters teaming up with the series’ titular character! Written and drawn by a diverse lineup of creators including established talent and rising stars, these stories reflect some of the many cultures, histories, and backgrounds from the AAPI community and showcase the home they have in the Marvel Universe!

  • Daredevil #11’s AAPI Heritage Month Story will be written by Jason Loo and drawn by Lynne Yoshii. Before becoming the new Iron Fist, Lin Lie’s legendary Sword of Fu Xi was shattered! Now, Daredevil and Iron Fist find themselves face-to-face against a pair of water demons who’ve come to claim the shards of the sword that are embedded in Lie Lie’s body and soul!
  • Doctor Strange #3’s AAPI Heritage Month Story will be written by Amy Chu and drawn by Tokitokoro. Readers have seen Nico Minoru’s mystical skills grow in recent titles like Strange Academy and Midnight Suns. Now, flashback to her days as a teenage runaway and witness her first meeting with her future ally and mentor, Doctor Strange.
  • Ghost Rider #14’s AAPI Heritage Month Story will be written by Jon Tsuei and drawn by Tadam Gyadu. Fresh off his thrilling adventures in Tiger Divison, Taegukgi, South Korea’s greatest super hero, comes to California to investigate a series of mysterious and supernatural deaths that have ties to his past. When a ghostly threat emerges, he’ll have to team up with Ghost Rider to take it down! 
  • Wolverine #33’s AAPI Heritage Month Story will be written by award-winning writer Gene Luen Yang, known for his acclaimed work on Shang-Chi, and drawn by Peter Nguyen. Yang will revisit his recent contribution to Shang-Chi’s legacy, Sister Dagger. Shang-Chi’s fierce younger sister is after a mysterious creature terrorizing the streets of Paris…and so is Wolverine! Witness their daggers and claws cross paths as two of Marvel’s deadliest fighters do what they do best!

The AAPI heroes of the Marvel Universe take center stage all year long! Fans can also look forward to a brand-new SILK solo series launching in May from writer Emily Kim and artist Ig Guara, an exciting new development for Wong in the pages of Jed MacKay and Pasqual Ferry’s upcoming Doctor Strange series, and much more!

Friends, Enemies & Fallout in Death of Wolverine: The Logan Legacy!

Posted on by

After the Death of Wolverine comes…the world without Wolverine! Marvel has announced Death of Wolverine: The Logan Legacy, a new 7-issue mini-series focusing on the gaping hole left by the passing of the world’s greatest X-Man. Mourn for his loss through the eyes of some of his closest allies, and most bitter enemies.

Beginning in October and running through December, Death of Wolverine: The Logan Legacy stars characters with close ties to Logan – X-23, Sabretooth, Lady Deathstrike, Daken and Mystique – as they explore a world without Wolverine in it. Beginning and ending with issues written by blockbuster Death of Wolverine scribe Charles Soule, each issue of Death of Wolverine: The Logan Legacy focuses on a different character and features a different creative team showcasing some of the industry’s rising star writers and artists!

In an interview with Marvel.com, Soule said:

Think of Death of Wolverine as an inciting event, one thing that has seismic-level effects on the lives of a great deal of the Marvel Universe. We’ll start in The Logan Legacy by examining those effects on people close to Wolverine, but over time, we’ll range far and wide to see what sort of black hole Logan’s death actually leaves.

The Wolverine is many things to many different people. A father, a friend, a mentor, an enemy. What does the Marvel Universe look like without him in it? Find out as those closest to him explore the crippling loss of Logan in Death of Wolverine: The Logan Legacy beginning this October!

Fear Itself Targets The Black Widow

Official Press Release

FEAR ITSELF Targets The BLACK WIDOW

This June, Natasha Romanoff is facing down a double threat of dire consequence in Fear Itself: Black Widow #1 – an extra-sized one-shot by acclaimed writer Cullen Bunn (The Sixth Gun) and artist Peter Nguyen. Tying directly into the spiraling madness of Fear Itself, The God of Fear has claimed Paris and a terrorist strike force plans to seize the moment by unleashing a crippling attack! But can the Black Widow really take out the terrorists and the legions of fear in time to save the City of Light?

“Even though she is one of the best spies in the world, she has no super powers, and she’s facing a threat that’s even giving heavy hitters a real run for their money,” said Bunn. “The events of Fear Itself–the worldwide panic and confusion–only serve to isolate her even more. She’s on her own for this one, so she really gets to show off.”

The stealthiest Secret Avenger holds the fate of an entire continent in her hands this June, only in Fear Itself: Black Widow #1!
