Red Wolf Stars in First New Solo series in Nearly Four Decades
Marvel already teased the fact that Native American character Red Wolf was on his way to get his own comic book, but today the first images and creative teams have been announced via Mashable. Nathan Edmondson (Black Widow) is writing the brand new series that features covers, design and consulting from Jeffrey Veregge, a Native American artist who recently contributed covers to G.I. Joe from IDW. Dalibor Talajić, recent artist from Secret Wars spin-off comic Master of Kung Fu is drawing the interiors. Jake Thomas will be editing the brand new series starting with Red Wolf #1 -- the first new solo title for the character in several decades. Red Wolf recently spun out of Marvel’s Secret Wars title 1872, an oddball tale that took place in the past. The hero was also in the All-New, All-Different Marvel teaser as seen below, which has allowed for fringe character in the Marvel Universe to remain relevant and receive their own quirky comic books. The series will take place in the American Southwest.

Robinson and Harris team as do Disney and Marvel for the story of C-3PO’s...
Well now. If you were wondering how closely the new movie Star Wars universe and the Marvel Comics Star Wars universe would work together, considering that both are now owned by Disney, the answer is "Yes." You may have noticed that C-3PO was sporting a new red arm in the Force Awakens trailers, and assumed that he'd lose a limb during the film. However, the origin of Threepio's new appendage will be told in STAR WARS SPECIAL: C-3PO #1, a one-shot out this December right around the movie's release. And it's by the team of writer James Robinson and Tony Harris, the Starman team reuniting for the first time in nearly 20 years.
