A bit of Firestar news

[long-silence.livejournal.com]

From today's My Cup O' Joe Myspace blog where Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning filled in for Quesada

Angelica is going to appear in a brand new limited series starting in July. Marvel Divas will be written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa.



"The idea behind the series was to have some sudsy fun and lift the curtain a bit and take a peep at some of our most fabulous super heroines. In the series, they're an unlikely foursome of friends--Black Cat, Hell Cat, Firestar, and Photon--with TWO things in common: They're all leading double-lives and they're all having romantic trouble. The pitch started as "Sex and the City" in the Marvel Universe, and there's definitely that "naughty" element to it, but I also think the series is doing to a deeper place, asking question about what it means...truly means...to be a woman in an industry dominated by testosterone and guns. (And I mean both the super hero industry and the comic book industry.) But mostly it's just a lot of hot fun."

...do they actually seek out writers that don't have a clue about the characters on purpose these days?

Because everyone one wants hot booby thrusting fun between/with four woman who have nothing in common apart from spandex. Let the wailing and gnashing of teeth begin... Ugh! Double ugh!
