I’m Cautiously Optimistic about Magik’s First Solo Ongoing Comic given The Conductor of X, Tom Brevoort, past comments about the character and what he could do now that he holds the editorial keys to the X-Men Kingdom.

Magik Defends Mutantkind From Demonic Threats in New Solo Series

Writer Ashley Allen and artist Germán Peralta launch Magik’s first-ever ongoing solo series this January!

This January, mutant icon Magik headlines her first ongoing solo series! The X-Men’s resident sorcerer will unleash her Soulsword, spells, and dark side against mystical threats targeting the mutant community.

Rising star Ashley Allen, who wrote the character earlier this year in X-MEN: BLOOD HUNT—MAGIK, will write the script. The character will be drawn by acclaimed artist Germán Peralta, known for his recent work on BLACK PANTHER and last year’s LOKI series.
From Colossus’ kid sister to New Mutant, Illyana Rasputina has climbed the ranks over the years to become the fiercest X-Man of them all, and her long overdue solo adventures will see her tap into her mystical expertise and unique mutant magic like never before.
The mystic mutant goes demon hunting in her own series! The X-Man Illyanna Rasputina strikes out on her own with new allies and dark powers arrayed against her. Something ancient has awakened beneath the Alaskan ice. Unfortunately for it, that’s Magik’s territory now!
Throughout the series, Magik will also be forced to come to terms with her tragic history and learn to control her demonic Darkchylde persona. After years of suppression, Illyana’s Darkchylde form returns from the depths of her tormented soul to offer her more strength and power, but at what cost?
“I’m beyond excited to be returning to write Illyana!” Allen said. “Supernatural stories featuring characters with hearts of gold are my favorite, so this series has been a dream to write! I can’t wait for readers to experience the adventure we take Magik on to slay some demons … and maybe accept some of her own.”

“I am very excited about this project,” Peralta shared. “Magik is a character with an incredible background, surrounded by darkness and mystery. Additionally, she is visually spectacular in all her versions, and I personally love Chris Bachalo’s design. I really enjoy drawing action scenes, as well as emotionally-driven scenes, and Ashley Allen writes a super intriguing script, where she balances both of these types of situations, making my job even more fun than it already is. I mean, what artist wouldn’t love to draw Magik with her great sword facing all kinds of demons?”

Welcome to Neo-Reality Collective | Pop-Culture News and Reviews Talk, Hosted by Eric Brown! In the Eighty-Fourth Episode, Doctor Doom has overthrown The Kang Dynasty and prepares to unleash a Doomsday upon The Marvel Cinematic Universe that will spawn a Secret War, played by the man that set the stage for the MCU’s success, Robert Downey Jr., much to shock and worry of many fans even with the reunion of the directors that led to the MCU’s greatest successes, The Russo Brothers. Star Wars: The Acolyte reigned for Eight Weeks, and despite having a budget bigger than Revenge of The Sith, Disney and Lucasfilm have announced the show's cancellation due to low viewership. At Gamescom, Amazon announced a new anthology adult animated series focusing on multiple video game franchises such as the PlayStation Brand, The Outer Worlds, Unreal Tournament, and Warhammer 40,000 created by Tim Miller, Blur Studios, and Amazon MGM! All this and more on Neo-Reality Collective!
