Following their big screen debut this February in Marvel Studios’ Black Panther, Wakanda’s fiercest warriors the Dora Milaje are heading out of their home country this summer for the new comic book story Wakanda Forever. And, after kicking things off with a Spider-Man team-up, Okoye, Ayo and Aneka will find themselves joining forces with the mutant superhero team, the X-Men!
“This story is a big Marvel-style adventure with the Dora Milaje front and center,” said editor Wil Moss. “Nnedi Okorafor may be relatively new to writing comics, but she already has the voices of all these characters down cold – from Okoye to Nightcrawler. Don’t miss this one, folks!”
The WAKANDA FOREVER story starts in June with Okoye, Ayo and Aneka teaming up with everyone’s favorite webslinger, Spider-Man! In the second installment of WAKANDA FOREVER, out this July, the Wakanda warriors meet the X-Men – including the Black Panther’s one true love, Storm! But when Okoye, Ayo and Aneka come up against deadly former Dora Milaje member Nakia, their mission turns to protecting their king – no matter what the cost…
