“…the monster behind ‘Doom's Doorway’ is revealed. ‘Medusa’ is back and wants the ‘Amazons’ to pay for the years of imprisonment she suffered in ‘Tartarus’. Now our queen must fight her to secure a future for her sisters. Will she show mercy for a woman scorned by ‘Man's World’? Plus, a look into the past of ‘Nubia’, gives a preview of her future…”

When Marie Javins was announced as Editor-in-Chief of DC Comics in 2020, the quote that accompanied her hiring stated, “As a young girl devouring comics of Wonder Woman, Nubia, and Supergirl, I never dreamed that decades later, I’d be at the helm of the mighty DC Comics.” A year later, on Wonder Woman’s 80th anniversary, the publisher is heading into an epic new age for Diana, Nubia, and the Amazons.
Leading into 2022’s Trial of the Amazons—the first Wonder Woman crossover event in decades—DC Comics is ramping up a series of new stories centered on the all-female race of warriors. The core Wonder Woman title reintroduces Diana after her inter-dimensional adventures and brush with death in Dark Nights: Death Metal, while Nubia and the Amazons takes readers back to Themyscira where Diana’s sister Nubia has taken the throne.

Although I haven’t reviewed every issue, that would be a bit too much even for me, I have read every issue of the Heroes Reborn/ Return ‘event’. That’s 18 issues in total, and I can honestly say there was only 2 or 3 issues that I felt were reaching, and struggling to stretch out the material. It’s been a decent storyline, added to by a nice interpretation of the Squadron Supreme characters, and some fine Bronze Age throwback style comics from Jason Aaron, clearly having a whale of a time. All good things though must come to an end, and quite often the ending with these things is the hardest part, never quite living up to the promise of it all. Let’s see what the creative team have left in the locker.

As event comics go, this has been a pretty fun ride so far. Alongside the main Heroes Reborn book, there have been quite a few one-shots taking longer looks at faces both familiar and not so. All, of course, essentially seeing the Marvel Universe as though it was a DC book. Peter Parker was a thinly veiled Jimmy Olsen for example. Tribute? Pastiche? Affectionate homage? Probably a little of all of these things. The Squadron Supreme of course were literally copies of the Justice League themselves, and it’s been nice to delve into their world a little, albeit one which has been created as a replacement to the ‘real’ world. That will change of course, but for now the Squadron are front and centre.
We get two stories here, the main lead featuring Nighthawk,...

I mentioned fairly recently that Marvel of late have been muscling in on DC’s territory, with a whole raft of alternate world/ alternate universe/ what if type stuff, across TV, film, and comics. Nothing wrong with that of course, as it gives creators a clean slate to work with, and a chance to write fanboy tinged stories. We all love a bit of that, right? My only gripe sometimes is that we need a little more substance to some of these stories, as once that initial thrill of ‘Steve Rodgers is Iron Man’ wears off, is there a good story in there. This book promises a lot, with Jason Aaron writing and Ed McGuiness pencilling, so we should get the holy trinity of a great idea, great writer, and great artist. Let’s take a look.

Prince Markie Dee of legendary hip-hop group The Fat Boys has passed away. The death of the "Stick 'Em" rapper, born Mark Morales, was confirmed by his manager Louis "Uncle Louie" Gregory on Feb. 18. "Forever in my Heart," he began in a message on Twitter. "Prince Markie Dee was more than a rapper; he was one of my very best and closest friends. My heart breaks today because I lost a brother. I'll always love you Mark and I'll cherish everything you taught me. Tomorrow is your birthday, swing my way big bro." On Feb. 19, the hip-hop pioneer would have been 53 years old. The cause of death has yet to be released to the public. Dee's work in the music industry...

Prince Markie Dee, aka Mark Morales, best known as a member of the pioneering hip-hop group The Fat Boys, died Thursday, according to the group’s manager. He was 52. No cause of death has been revealed.
“Forever in my Heart. Prince Markie Dee was more than a rapper; he was one of my very best and closest friends,” manager Louis Gregory wrote on Twitter. “My heart breaks today because I lost a brother. I’ll always love you Mark and I’ll cherish everything you taught me. Tomorrow is your birthday, swing my way big bro.”
Mark Anthony Morales teamed up with Darren Robinson (the Human Beatbox) and Damon Wimbley (Kool Rock Ski) as The Disco 3, later transitioning to become The Fat Boys. They began in 1983 by winning a Radio City Music Hall talent show.

Mark Morales — the rapper, actor and music producer better known as Prince Markie Dee of the trailblazing rap group The Fat Boys — died Thursday at the age of 52. A cause of death has not been made public.
Morales’ death was announced by Sirius Xm’s Rock the Bells radio, where he hosted and DJ’d. “The Rock The Bells family is heartbroken to learn of the passing of Mark ‘Prince Markie Dee’ Morales earlier today. That voice and his presence can never be replaced. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his loved ones,” the station said via Twitter.
Born in Brooklyn in 1968, Morales co-founded what would become The Fat Boys as the Disco 3 with his friends Damon “Kool Rock-Ski” Wimbley and Darren “Buff Love” Robinson. As The Disco 3, the group shot to early success after winning a rap contest built around Morales’ and Kool Rock-Ski’s raps and Buff Love’s groundbreaking beatboxing,...

After the tangled tale of the Skywalker Saga, I’m looking forward to Star Wars: The High Republic‘s clean slate. The High Republic (or Project Luminous as it was once known) will be a series novels and comics taking place 200 years before The Phantom Menace, allowing it to be recognizable as Star Wars while having entirely new characters and settings. This was due to launch in the fall but because of – you guessed it – Covid-19, Lucasfilm announced that The High Republic will now begin in early 2021.
Over the last month, we’ve seen some previews of what’s to come, including a lengthy extract from YA novel Star Wars: The High Republic: A Test of Courage. Today, we’ve got another taste via uncolored pages from the comic Star Wars: The High Republic #1, by writer Cavan Scott and artists Ario Anindito and Mark Morales.

With one of Marvel’s first big story arcs to be rolled out next year, Iron Man 2020, still being months away from kicking off, you’d naturally think we’d run out of things to talk about. But instead, it’s proven to be the latest exciting theme for the House of Ideas to run with for a wave of variant covers.
Just yesterday, we showed you some kick-ass redesigns for some of the publisher’s most popular icons, and the fun hasn’t stopped there. After feasting our eyes on some truly sweet looking alternate takes on Spider-Man, Elektra, Black Cat and Doctor Doom, yet another batch has been thrown our way.
Like those presented before, you can expect to find these variants on shelves beginning in December. I think I’m most partial to the Miles Morales and Venom reimaginings in this particular gallery, though you may identify other favorites of your own.

Marvel’s “Fresh Start” initiative is essentially just the latest relaunch, and as a result we have another Avengers #1. It’s an appropriate time to relaunch Marvel’s flagship book, though, with a whole new creative team taking charge. Jason Aaron is the new Avengers writer, and he’s continuing the story he launched in last year’s Marvel Legacy one-shot. The issue’s release is also timed for straight after Infinity War hit the theaters, a smart bit of planning.
With Brian Michael Bendis now having left for rival publisher DC Comics, Jason Aaron and Dan Slott are essentially becoming Marvel’s flagship writers. Aaron’s Thor run has demonstrated that he loves to play the long game; the seeds of the Mangog’s arrival were sown as far back as his Thor: God of Thunder run in 2014. That means this is probably the first issue in an epic that will run for years,...

Put two cash cows together, and what do you get other than really expensive hamburgers that give talented NBA players their names? Spider-Man/Deadpool #1. In this team-up of two big time Marvel characters with similar senses of humor, yet vastly different moral compasses, writer Joe Kelly and the art team of Ed McGuinness, Mark Morales, and Jason Keith pit the two red costume wearers against Hydro-Man, who has absorbed all the sewage in New York City, the Mindless Ones, and Dormammu, who is behind it all and gets some hilarious lines about taking acting lessons from famous Greek playwrights. McGuinness and Morales’ art is fresh, clean, and easy to follow so you can laugh at the characters’ jokes and not scratch your head at awkward poses or setting shifts.

Published by Marvel Comics
You might have heard of this tiny little film called Avengers: Age of Ultron hitting theaters on May 1st. Marvel wanted to prep casual readers and hardcore readers alike and published a bold, game-changing, original graphic novel about everyone’s favorite robot overlord, Ultron.
Rage of Ultron opens up with the Avengers battling Ultron in a time only classified as “then”. The team lineup of the classic Avengers with Vision, Scarlet Witch, and Beast in tow are trying to stop Ultron (with strings attached!) in the New York city streets. Beast and Hawkeye are the comedic duo throughout the early battle, and writer Rick Remender makes them hit all the right quips all the while dodging Ultron and his blasts. Jerome Opena handles the art duties for this section and owns it.

Marvel’s presence at Baltimore Comic Con was low tech and fairly quiet with no slides or big announcements, but fans in the audience got to ask a variety of questions to Marvel’s creative talent from stupid ones like “Is the new Thor a lesbian?” to ones about the fates of various characters, the amount of creator/editorial interplay in different titles, and why digital comics cost as much as print copies. The panelists were Senior Vice President of Publishing Tom Brevoort, writer Charles Soule (She-Hulk, Death of Wolverine), writer/artistJim Starlin (Thanos: Infinity Revelation), inker Mark Morales (Infinity, Original Sin), and writer Mark Waid (Daredevil).
Before the panel began, Tom Brevoort told the audience that it was Marvel’s comics, not their films, cartoons, or merchandising, but there will still quite a few questions about various things like this from asking if Marvel Studios would ever buy Spider-Man...

(Cbr) Spoiler Warning: The following article contains minor spoilers for "X-Men: Days of Future Past" Fox's hit film, "X-Men: Days of Future Past," picked up on a cue from Marvel Studios' approach to movie making by ending with a post-credits sequence teasing the next film in the franchise. Set in Ancient Egypt, the scene showed a mysterious man with grey skin and blue lines on his face using his powers to build a pyramid while masses of people chant as four mysterious beings stand in the background. What the crowd is chanting is the key, as it is the name of this young mutant, En Sabah Nur, who will eventually be known as the X-Men villain Apocalypse. Debuting at the end of "X-Factor" #5, though the issue was written and illustrated by the creative team of Bob Layton, Jackson Guice and Joe Rubinstein, the character was actually invented by Louise Simonson...

Wolverine #1
Written by Paul Cornell
Art by Ryan Stegman & Mark Morales
Colors by David Curiel & Letters by Vc’s Cory Petit
Standard Cover by Ryan Stegman & Edgar Delgado
Published by Marvel Comics
Does the world need another Wolverine comic book?
That’s the question, fair or not, that every new Wolverine series must answer. This is especially true when the new series is part of Marvel Now, which is all about putting a new spin on classic characters. In that regard, this series has a leg up on other recent Wolverine launches, as the first issue finds Wolverine in a unique situation: robbed of his healing factor, functionally mortal, vulnerable. It’s a status quo that was established at the end of his previous series (in a story titled “Killable”, also written by Paul Cornell), as an alien virus took away his mutant ability to heal before he was brutally attacked by Sabretooth/ In theory,...

This is the time of year when the ComicMix crew starts to firm up our attendance at various comic conventions in the year ahead. It’s a frustrating process because there are a lot of shows and we can’t go to all the ones we’d like to attend.
It also makes me really angry.
Last year was the first in a long time that I went to a bunch of cons. It was fascinating and fun most of the time, but annoying at others. Twenty years after we started Friends of Lulu, there are still remarkably few women invited to be guests at the shows.
This is odd, because there are a lot of women working in the industry, and (capitalists take note) even more buying comics and tickets to cons. Wouldn’t show organizers like to demonstrate to this market segment that they are welcome and valued?...

New X-Men #114-116
Writer: Grant Morrison
Penciller: Frank Quitely
Inker: Tim Townsend (114-115), Mark Morales (115-116), Dan Green (116)
Colorist: Brian Haberlin (114-115), Hi-Fi (115-116)
Publisher: Marvel Comics
In 2001, the X-Men were both everywhere and nowhere. Bryan Singer’s X-Men film had been released the previous year and was a commercial and critical success. It showed that superhero films could tackle serious real world themes, like bigotry and genocide, while still having great action and visual effects. But the X-Men comics franchise was in shambles after a glut of crossovers and character deaths. Enter Grant Morrison, who had recently revitalized DC’s Justice League franchise in his run on Jla and had just wrapped up his magnum opus Invisibles. Morrison streamlined the X-Men’s team membership to five members (Cyclops, Wolverine, Jean Grey, Beast, Emma Frost) along with Professor X and decided to explore the themes of evolution and extinction beginning...

Inhumanity #1
Writer: Matt Fraction
Penciller: Olivier Coipel
Inker: Mark Morales
Colorist: Laura Martin
Publisher: Marvel Comics
On paper, Inhumanity seems like it could be a cool book or event. There are sci-fi elements (futuristic machines and medicines), political intrigue (who will succeed Black Bolt as leader of the Inhumans), and even some superheroics (the cool Inhuman transformations, guest appearances by Avengers). It even was written by Matt Fraction, whose comic Sex Criminals was voted the best comic of the year by Time.com. But the humor and nuanced characterization that permeates Sex Criminals is absent from Inhumanity #1. In its place is clunky exposition and clashing art styles. The text heavy and (often) tiny panels allow Olivier Coipel and flashback artists Dustin Weaver and Leinil Yu little room to illustrate the past and present of the Inhumans. The first page is gorgeous, but it mainly goes downhill from there.
Inhumanity #1′s biggest weakness is its storytelling.

Infinity #6
Writer: Jonathan Hickman
Art: Jim Cheung, Dustin Weaver, Mark Morales, Guillermo Ortego, Dave Meikis, and John Livesay
Colorist: Justin Ponsor with Ive Svorcina
Publisher: Marvel Comics
The Avengers have saved the galaxy. Now it’s time to save the Earth. As writer Jonathan Hickman wraps up the Infinity event, a miniseries that has been an Avengers-centric story, he finally writes a comic that feels like an Avengers comic in Infinity #6. Having defeated the Builders in space, Captain America and the Avengers return to Earth, finding it blockaded by Thanos’ servants as the villain has pursued a personal vendetta to find his son. The boy that the Inhumans of Earth have hidden for years, Thane, is now in the grips of one of Thanos’ lieutenants, Ebony Maw, and thanks to Black Bolt’s explosive release of the Terrigen mist over the planet, now possesses powers that he doesn’t comprehend.

“X-Men” #2
Written by Brian Wood
Drawn by Olivier Coipel
Inking by Mark Morales, Scott Hanna and Olivier Coipel
Colouring by Laura Martin, Matt Milla, and Christina Strain
Published by Marvel
Last month’s stellar issue of Brian Wood’s “X-Men” introduces the comic’s debut villain, Arkea, twin sister of Sublime, and she immediately poses a threat to the heroes, and to the X-academy at large, which is put under lock-down mode upon her discovery. The issue explodes into a fury of action which spills out over several of the comic’s pages, jumping out of the panels onto a fantastically drawn two-page spread. Coipel’s drawings received much deserved praise in #1, and in this book they are even better; faces are depicted with a great range of emotions; sense of spatial relations is effectively communicated, with the lock-down pages feeling every bit as claustrophobic as they should.

Immediately after its launch announcement, the new X-Men comic, simply titled “X-Men” has been the talk of the comic community, with many waiting in eager anticipation for the very first all-women starring X-Men comic written by fan-favourite Brian Wood (“Ultimate X-Men”, “Dmz”), and others skeptical about the comic’s existence, thinking perhaps the all-female team will result in nothing more than a gimmick. Well, the first issue is out, and we can all breathe a collective sigh of relief in knowing that this comic is no gimmick.
First of all, this comic does things right by not even mentioning the fact that the team consists of all women. And why should it? It is a non-factor for these women, who are, above all else, X-Men. Instead of cheaply exploiting and objectifying its cast,...

In both the Avengers and New Avengers titles, Jonathan Hickman is cooking up an epic featuring characters with the ability to create and destroy life. He shows some of this world-building skill on a smaller scale in Marvel’s special Free Comic Book Day Infinity preview. The heroes of the Marvel Universe barely show up in this chilling teaser; Thanos is the star of the show even though his face is only shown once.
The purpose of this preview issue was to shed some light on Thanos’ organization and hierarchy as well as reveal the gravity of his threat to the Earth and universe. The Infinity Gauntlet is mentioned once, but his plan seems like a straight up invasion. Several concepts are introduced in this preview, such as outriders, which...
