Women Of Marvel

The overlap of Medusa, Crystal, Polaris, Dazzler, & Songbird is game related, nothing more.

It could be used as a checklist!

Will this book try to feature EVERY Marvel female character that has ever existed depending on their storytelling potential?

No lie, that's one of my end goals.

Thanks for doing this, most of the questions I wanted to ask have been asked. I am sure I didn't see this one, so here goes my question. Who has been the most fun to write and out of the main cast and who was fun to write out of the guest stars of those you can mention?

I can see where that comes from... but I promise you this... one of the core members of the group... one of the Shieldmaidens... will challenge that theory in every way.

I want to ask a bit of an artsy-fartsy question.

Without naming the characters or talking about plot specific details, what would you say this book is about?

Sisterhood? Friendship? Responsibility? Duty? etc.

Thanks and I'm really looking foward to the book!

One of the things I like about the cast we're choosing is that they aren't tied up with so many other books and we don;t have as many hoops to jump through in order to shake things up. There will definitely be some changes among this group!

Wait. What question? Wasn't intentional, I swear!

Misty and Annabelle have been the most fun to write from the main cast.

Not sure I can mention the guest stars without spoiling anything... but maybe Hela?

Good one.

Hmm.

Duty. Honor. Responsibility. What makes a hero? Secret histories.
