Marvel Comics is putting together a new series that deals with one of the Guardians of the Galaxy characters that existed long before she was a part of that team with Gamora. Interestingly, the new series will be written by the co-screenwriter for the Guardians of the Galaxy film with Nicole Perlman stepping up for that. She’s working with the utterly fantastic artist Marco Checchetto (Star Wars: Shattered Empire) on the project that debuts on December 21st, 2016. Check out the finalized cover, a few unlettered pages, and some variant covers below!
Plot concept: Once upon a time she was Thanos’ heartless pet assassin and favorite daughter. Today she is the backbone of the Guardians of the Galaxy, putting her life on the line to defend the innocent. What was it that transformed her from being used as a tool of her oppressor to a champion of the powerless? Embark on a journey of revenge, redemption and retribution, and witness how she earned her reputation as the deadliest woman in the galaxy.
