STRANGE TALES, a new limited series by Jeremy Whitley and Bayleigh Underwood, featuring Scarlet Witch, Nico Minoru, and other magic-based heroes, debuts in October.
The press release follows:
Media Release -- This October, some of Marvel's most iconic magic users gather for a night of epic adventure and mystical mystery in STRANGE TALES, a four issue limited series by writer and recent Stonewall Honor Award winner Jeremy Whitley (Unstoppable Wasp, Navigating with You) and artist Bayleigh Underwood (Marvel United: A Pride Special, Marvel Action: Chillers). Just in time for Halloween, STRANGE TALES stars Scarlet Witch, Wiccan, Nico Minoru, Doctor Strange and more magical super heroes in a spellbinding saga that blends Marvel Comics storytelling with elements of popular tabletop role-playing games.
ROLL THE DICE…IF YOU DARE!
It's Halloween, and Nico Minoru joins her girlfriend Karolina Dean, and friends Teddy Altman and Billy Kaplan for a rousing round of RPG Hoosegows and Hydras. But when a dice roll leads to goblins materializing in real life and her friends all disappearing, Nico Minoru is soon left running through NYC's streets with a very real dragon hot on her tail. Desperate for help, she finds herself at the Scarlet Witch's Last Door. Will these two witches find the missing heroes and piece together how this board game came to life, or will their adventure end in a critical loss?
On combining two hobbies, Whitley said, "I've always been a fan of the spookier side of the Marvel Universe and to get to play in that playground was a ball. And to get to add aspects of table-top role-playing games on top of it - who could resist? Then I found out we'd get to see all of the excitement penciled by the amazing Bailey Underwood! Strange Tales is a treat I think all Marvel fans will enjoy!"
