Zoe Tunnell: With the announcement of your new Moon Knight ongoing alongside Black Cat and the Infinite Destinies crossover you’re heavily involved in it feels like a bit of a moment for you as a writer with Marvel! How do you feel about your metaphorical time in the spotlight? Jed MacKay: It’s kind of weird-…
Loki should be one of, if not the, most prominent queer characters in Marvel’s roster. While not yet on the silver screen, within the pages of Marvel Comics Thor’s brother is not just bisexual, sometimes she is Thor’s sister. An openly genderfluid character whose personal identity shifts nearly as much as her loyalties. With a…

Could Druig be any more guilty even if he was actually guilty? We’re sure he’ll find a way in Eternals #4, written by Kieron Gillen, drawn by Esad Ribić, colored by Matthew Wilson, and Clayton Cowles on letters and design. Zoe Tunnell: This was a MEATY issue, dang. Eternals hasn’t exactly been a breezy series…
Queen Cat is back, baby, and she’s got her sights set on Felicia. Nina Vakueva is guesting on art duties, alongside our usual creative team – Jed MacKay, Brian Reber, and Ferran Delgado. Allison Senecal: Uh, I was not expecting this from a Lily Hollister issue in the year of our Lord 2021. Zoe Tunnell:…
There are few things more disappointing to me than when I try out a new book I’ve been looking forward to, only to have it land with a thud. Not necessarily bad, but failing to live up to the potential of the creative team, the premise or some combination of the two. Which is why…
Reeling from the revelation that his entire heroic identity is a lie, Black Knight tries to cope with the fact that he isn’t the noble paladin he thought he was.

We love democracy and apparently so do the X-Men. Marvel is giving fans a chance to vote on the final member in the first ever X-Men Election. During the epic X Of Swords, fans realized that, since the start of the Krakoan era there has been no official X-Men on the orders of Charles Xavier….
We’ve got a Doctor to steal in Black Cat #2 by Jed McKay, C.F Villa, Brian Reber and Ferran Delgado. Allison Senecal: Honestly? What a beefy issue for being another tie-in and pretty action-heavy. I remember getting to page 14-ish and thinking I should be close to the end, and phew, that wasn’t the case…
I’m not a Tokusatsu gal. The Japanese tradition of costumed superheroes with outrageous names fighting endless goons and flamboyant monsters in a seemingly infinite sea of quarries should, by all accounts, be extremely my kind of thing.
