Let's talk #NewWarriors!

First billed as "heroes for the '90s," they're all about searching for the truth, making hard choices and having fun adventures along the way. The team of friends has grown to include teens and young adults from across the Marvel Universe.

Thanks for joining in the fun!

I love this idea!

You know... if you were to post a playlist or the singles chart paired with the classic album you were listening to, I wouldn't object.

Good points, that could be!

New Warriors Talk @newwarriorstalk.bsky.social · 2d

I always wondered if they figured sales wouldn't improve all that much or people wouldn't love it THAT much, and they were just kind of filling time until the full Heroes Reborn launch. Then Mark Waid and Ron Garney decided to be amazing.

I'm glad that people seem excited for NOVA: CENTURION! In recognition of the response, here's the gang's ship: The Principle of Reasonable Interest, as drawn by Álvaro with colors by Mattia, and Dave Cockrum's original design from back in MCP #22.

Covid is not over.

People are still dying and becoming disabled every day.

We rushed “back to normal” for the economy, not because the threat had passed.

When you wear a mask, you’re not only protecting your health, you’re saying you don’t believe anyone is expendable.

It might depend on the artist. I still die of embarrassment remembering the time I brought the Nova issue of What If up to Erik Larsen and asked him to sign it. He definitely was not down for it.

@gailsimone.bsky.social what are you trying to do to me?! 😭

Thank you for remembering Shogo!!! 😭❤️

Jubilee looks up at a big dragon and has tears streaming down her face. The dragon sniffs her and asks why she cries. She answers that he reminds her of someone.
