MARVEL'S VOICES: PRIDE

Marvel's Voices: Pride #1, the annual one-shot that celebrates LGBTQIA+ characters and creators, returns on June 14.

Now in its third year, Marvel's Voices: Prode #1 will proudly spotlight characters from all walks of life and identities in stories ranging from heartfelt to action-packed. In addition to favorites like Black Cat, Hulkling, and Wiccan, this year's one-shot will up the ante with a multitude of exciting character debuts and lead-in stories to upcoming titles.

The line-up of stories will include:

* Get the scoop on an unannounced X-Men title coming later this year in a story by writer Steve Foxe and artist Rosi Kampe starring Gimmick, the breakout character from 2020's Children of the Atom!

* An all-new hero takes on the mantle of Nightshade to protect her Chicago community in a tale by writer Stephanie Williams and a new artist.

* Writer Sarah Gailey makes a Marvel Comics debut with a story starring Black Cat. Join Felicia Hardy at New Orleans Pride where she has a fierce encounter with the Thieves Guild -- but this time she's out for more than riches.

* Television writer Shadi Petosky (The Sandman) pens her first Marvel Comics story/ Wiccan and Hulkling are on a much-needed getaway when the beloved couple finds themselves stranded. Luckily, they befriend an all-new super hero who lends a helping hand.

* Author H.E. Edgmon introduces a brand-new symbiote character!

* In addition, Pride Variant Covers will return, featuring both Marvel heroes and characters from a galaxy far, far away.

Brought together by Lucas Werneck and David Talaski, these covers feature a diverse lineup of LGBTQIA+ heroes from all corners of the Marvel Universe including icons, rising stars, fan-favorites, and recent breakout characters. Across six vibrant pieces, Werneck and Talaski capture the joy of Pride Month with characters being their authentic selves in pure celebration and showcase their resilience and might in powerful portraits.

June will also see the launch of a new Loki limited series, one of many Marvel Comics titles publishing throughout the year that spotlight LGBTQIA+ heroes. Fans can also continue to celebrate Pride in the Marvel Universe this June in current titles like Betsy Braddock: Captain Britain, New Mutants: Lethal Legion, Star Wars: Doctor Aphra, Star Wars: Sana Starros, and more, plus upcoming titles and Marvel Unlimited Infinity Comics this summer, including a yet to be announced Fall of X title.

BRIEFLY

MAGIC PLANESWALKERS: NOBLE: Magic Planeswalkers: Noble is a 40-page one-shot from BOOM! Studios scheduled for a June 14 release. Here's how BOOM! describes the book, from writers Stephanie Williams, Daniel Warren and Dave Rapoza and artist Alberto Locatelli and Lea Caballero:

"Planeswalkers Karn and Ral Zarek team up to navigate the lonely and often treacherous space between flesh and machine. Meanwhile, a romantic outing between Vraska and fan-favorite Jace? The circumstances are a bit less than ideal for the burgeoning couple."

"Who doesn't love a good adventure with a bit of romance at the core of the story? I know I do, and it was an honor to write a story for two characters who've somehow managed to find each other in a world filled with magic, mayhem, and malevolent monsters," Williams said.
