A new era of CAPTAIN MARVEL begins this October.
New York, NY— June 16, 2023 — This past week fans saw
the end of Kelly Thompson’s historic run of CAPTAIN MARVEL, but you can’t keep
Carol Danvers down for long! This October, enter an all-new era of CAPTAIN
MARVEL as writer Alyssa Wong and Marvel’s Stormbreaker artist Jan Bazaldua take
the reins in a new ongoing series!
CAPTAIN MARVEL #1 will mark a revolutionary shift for the
iconic cosmic hero as she gets a glow-up courtesy of superstar artist Jen
Bartel! Bartel’s recent Hellfire Gala design for Carol was a hit with fans, and
now she’s delivered a sleeker, modified version for Carol’s new journey. In
addition, CAPTAIN MARVEL will see the rise of a new overwhelming omniversal
entity who recognizes Carol is the only hero who can stand against its’ vision
of total annihilation. After being ambushed and trapped, Carol will need to
rely on the reluctant help of a young ally who holds the key to victory! Ripe
with high-stakes adventure, cosmic mystery, and epic feats, it’s an exciting
new status quo worthy of Marvel’s brightest stars!
HIGHEST, FURTHEST, FASTEST! Carol Danvers is one of the
powerhouses of the Marvel Universe, a woman capable of harnessing the energy of
the sun. So if you’re coming for Earth? She’s the first one you take off the
board. Someone’s figured just how to do just that. Introducing a new supporting
cast and villains both beloved and dangerously fresh as Wong and Bazaldua’s
exhilarating new series kicks off!
“I'm so excited to be writing Captain Marvel!” Wong said.
“Carol is such an iconic character with a rich history, and I can't wait to add
to her story. It's an honor to work with Jan and I hope everyone enjoys what
we've got coming!”
“Captain Marvel is one of my favorite female characters,
that's why I'm very excited to draw her,” Bazaldua added. “I have always seen
her as a very self-confident woman with nothing she cannot face, and not just
because she has superpowers, but because she has inner strength. That’s what I
really enjoy about her and why I really appreciate this opportunity!”
