Ahead of the upcoming video game, the Midnight Suns are returning to the Marvel universe in September as writer Ethan Sacks and artist Luigi Zagaria assemble a new team of mystical heroes in Blade, Kushala, Ghost Rider/Spirit Rider, Magik, Wolverine, Nico Minoru, and Strange Academy breakout Zoe Laveau.
“As a fan of the original Midnight Sons, I am honored and stoked to continue that legacy, and I’m grateful to editor Tom Groneman for giving me the chance to dabble in this mystical corner of the Marvel Universe,” said Sacks. “We’re going to conjure up some wild otherworldly action to go along with some themes that have real world resonance. Having fallen in love with the team book concept on Star Wars: Bounty Hunters, I’m primed and ready to put this lineup of heroes through hell…so to speak.”
“Seeing the first issue pages come in, I can also say artist Luigi Zagaria’s art is going to cast a spell over readers,” added Sacks. “It’s just stunning work. He’s at the top of his game.”
A dark prophesy and apocalyptic new villains with horrifying powers the likes of which Earth has never faced before ordains a team of Midnight Suns to rise and tear @#$% up! But what does this new threat have to do with the Sorcerer Supreme’s past? And why is Strange Academy student Zoe Laveau number one on the Suns’ list?
