MaraNew series by Brian Wood and Ming Doyle offers new take on superpowers

Press release

In December, Image Comics will publish the first issue of MARA, a new series by acclaimed writer Brian Wood and brilliant up-and-coming artist Ming Doyle. In a hyper-technological future where sports, war, and celebrity are the world’s obsessions, no one is more famous than Mara Prince. A model and athlete regarded as a paragon, Mara rises to an untouchable height of fame when she manifests superpowers on live television.

For Wood (Northlanders, Conan the Barbarian, DMZ), the connection between athlete and superhero is a natural one. "For a while I’ve seen a connection between superstar athletes and superheroes, both superficially and also in how each can be portrayed and dissected, lauded, and demonized by the societies they serve," he said, adding that the pressure to perform perfectly can be tremendous for young athletes.

Game of Thrones Creator to Write Doctor Strange for Marvel?

Game of Thrones Creator to Write
Dr. Strange for Marvel?

Doctor Strange

It looks as though the Lawyers will decide if Winter is Coming to Marvel Comics

 

In a new interview with MTV Geek, George R.R. Martin, the creator of “A Song of Ice and Fire” novels that spawned the HBO series: A Game of Thrones, has said that he would love to write Doctor Strange.“ The character I’d have the most fun writing would be Doctor Strange, the master of the mystic arts, he was always one of my favorites.”

George R.R. Martin is no stranger to the comic book medium as he pulled together and edited a sci-fi and superhero anthology series called “Wild Cards”. For those who have read this, or “A Game of Thrones,” you would know Martin’s writing style would mix wonderfully with Doctor Strange’s world. Unfortunately, despite his passion for the character, it doesn’t appear that Marvel Comics is going to let it happen.
