GAMORA #1 Lands This Week
With all the excitement surrounding GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 these days, Marvel is lining the comic racks with new issues featuring our favorite space heroes. Besides STAR-LORD #1 hitting shelves this week, we are also getting GAMORA #1 from writer Nicole Perlman and artist Marco Checchetto. This is a book I’ve been looking forward to for a long time. How can you not love Gamora?
Before the Guardians there was Gamora! From screenwriter Nicole Perlman co-writer of the Guardians of the Galaxy screenplay-and Marvel superstar artist Marco Checchetto comes a killer new ongoing series! Once upon a time she was Thanos’ heartless pet assassin and favorite daughter. Today, she is the backbone of the Guardians of the Galaxy, putting her life on the line to defend the innocent. What was it that transformed her from being used as a tool of her oppressor, to a champion of the powerless? Embark on a journey of revenge and redemption, and witness how Gamora earned her reputation as the Deadliest Woman in the Galaxy.
Besides Perlman as writer, what most excites me about this book is to learn just how Gamora became so feared! Ya know, besides being the daughter of Thanos. Either way, I can’t wait to learn more about her in this new on-going series. And holy cow! Check out that cover art from Esad Ribic! So good!
