It’s no secret that Silk has been a Spidey fan favorite since swinging onto the scene in 2014. There has been a call for the character to join the movies, but it has not come to pass. A bit of good news for Silk fans has just been announced at C2E2 in Chicago.
Marvel has announced a new Silk solo series will return this year. It will be written by novelist Maurene Goo with art from Takeshi Miyazawa. This will be the first comic book story from Goo in her career. Here is what she said about the chance to work on Silk, “The opportunity to write a Korean American super hero—a woman, no less—is one that I never thought would come my way,” Goo said. “I’m so excited to flex this writing muscle and to explore new stories for Silk—a character I love. Her fierceness and loyalty are qualities I understand and relate to, and I hope readers feel the same as she fights new foes and protects old friends.”
So, what will Cindy Moon be up to in this new story? The initial synopsis is short, but says: “Cindy’s new mission will quickly turn as personal as it is deadly and prove Silk to be one of Marvel’s most dynamic and intriguing heroes.”
Silk #1 will be available in July of 2020 from Marvel Comics.
