Another X-Men series is launching from Marvel's mutants' newest era, as Magik will star in an upcoming series from Ashley Allen and German Peralta.
Ilyanna Rasputin, aka Magik, debuted in the pages of Giant-Size X-Men before making her first full appearance in New Mutants, where she played an integral part of the team. The teleporting mutant grew up inside Limbo, becoming one of its most fearsome rulers. Outside of the dark realm, the sword-wielding hero has joined the X-Men and become a fan-favorite character in the Marvel Universe.
Magik #1 features main cover art from J. Scott Campbell and Tanya Lehoux, showing the hero surrounded by demons. Additionally, yet-to-be-revealed open-order variants are coming from David Nakayama (also available as a 1:200 virgin variant), JaeHyung Lee (1:100 virgin, too), and a logo variant. Dike Ruan's variant shows Magic's sword in a fiery blaze. Incentive variants also come from Peach Momoko, with a 1:10 cover featuring her design art, and Jay Anacleto, a 1:25 variant. Check out Scott Campbell's main variant, followed by the text solicitation for Magik #1.
THE MYSTIC MUTANT GOES DEMON HUNTING IN HER OWN NEW, ONGOING SERIES! The X-Man Ilyanna 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! Written by rising star Ashley Allen (X-MEN: BLOOD HUNT - MAGIK, MARVEL ZOMBIES: BLACK, WHITE & BLOOD) and illustrated by the incomparable Germán Peralta (LOKI, BLACK PANTHER), this is a stylish, high-octane demon-hunting adventure starring the fiercest X-Man of them all!
