DAVID BALDEON TO DRAW DOMINO

Marvel Comics has announced that artist David Baldeon is joining writer Gail Simone on the creative team of Domino, which premieres on April 11.

I am so very thrilled to be a part of Team Domino! I am a fan of Gail's work, and I've been wanting to work with her for a long time now. The fact that it is with a character like Domino is the icing on the cake!" said Baldeon. "She's strong, she's tough, she´s fun and she´s thrilling, and hopefully the art will bring through all of that. We've given her a new, sleek look that plays on all of her strengths, her history, and who she is as a character. Plus, this book is a completely different animal from my previous work style-wise, and therefore a chance to go into new grounds. This is going to be an exciting ride!"

"Since Marvel first asked me to write Domino, I knew there was one element that attracted me so much to her, but for some reason, I couldn't quite name the exact word," Simone said. "Was it stubbornness? Snarkiness? Other characters have those traits, too, but with Domino, there was this thing that represents her, but the word escaped me, and it was vexing. Wonderful editor Chris Robinson had someone in mind for the book, bless him! We immediately started getting the sketches and designs from David Baldeon Gonzalez, and I knew instantly the concept I had been trying to name, because he drew it right into her eyes. It's mischief. Domino has a sense of mischief, of high-stakes play, even in the roughest times. She's lethal and she knows it."

"That really sealed the deal for me. David was our guy and I could not be happier. He draws gorgeous people doing dirty deeds, and it's just exactly the roller-coaster ride I had hoped for. He's adding so much heart and fire. I just love him."



LEGION ON BLU-RAY

Legion Season 1 is coming to Blu-ray and DVD on March 27.

The limited time Blu-ray and DVD includes an exclusive cop of the World's Angriest Boy in the World book.

Here's how the season is described:

"Based on the based on the Marvel Comics by Chris Claremont and Bill Sienkiewicz and featuring a powerful, all-star cast - including Dan Stevens, Aubrey Plaza, Jean Smart and Rachel Keller -- Legion follows the story of David Haller (Stevens), a troubled young man who may be more than human. Diagnosed as schizophrenic as a child, David has been in and out of mental hospitals for years. Institutionalized once again, David spends his time with his chatterbox friend Lenny (Plaza), a fellow patient whose life-long drug and alcohol addiction has done nothing to quell her boundless optimism that her luck is about to change. But a startling encounter with a new patient (Keller) forces David to confront the shocking possibility that the voices he hears and the visions he sees may actually be real. A haunted man, David escapes from the hospital and with the help of a nurturing but demanding therapist (Smart) and her team of specialists' unconventional methods, David embarks on an extraordinary journey of self-discovery that leads to a new world of possibilities...and a new level of unexpected danger."
