As part of the X-Men: From the Ashes Panel at San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel Comics announced that writer Alyssa Wong (Star Wars: Doctor Aphra) is teaming with artist Vincenzo Carratu (Dracula: Blood Hunt) for an all-new Psylocke solo series launching in November.
“Everything in her history points her to the path of a villain,” said Wong. “Her background is so full of tragedy—so why does she choose to be a hero? This is a dark emotional character story. But it will also be a ton of fun as well. I’m excited to do something super dark.”
After taking on the mantle of Psylocke, Kwannon became one of Krakoa’s breakout stars in titles like Hellions and Uncanny Avengers. Now, the telepathic and telekinetic ninja goes solo! Her upcoming adventures feature appearances by her lover Greycrow, shed light on her brutal upbringing with the Hand, and introduce a twisted super villain called the Taxonomist!
SHE WAS MADE FOR VIOLENCE! Trained to be an assassin since birth, Kwannon chose to be an X-Man. But there are still some jobs too dirty for the X-Men. And some paths have to be walked alone. When the mission is brutal, Psylocke unsheathes her blades to punish those who prey on mutants. Exploding out of the pages of X-Men, join Psylocke into the underbelly of the Marvel Universe, carving out her own place in a world that would rather see her under control!
Along with the above main cover above from Mahmud Asrar, Psylocke #1 will also be available with the following variant covers from Hicham Habchi, Rickie Yagawa and Stanley ‘Artgerm’ Lau…
Psylocke #1 will go on sale on November 13th 2024.
