Hey everybody! I’m on vacation from work this week and am spending the week just lounging at home, being as lazy as humanly possible. So I might not post as much as I should. But I still want to post exciting news like Dazzler getting a solo series in the new From the Ashes line of X-Men comics!

Storm is also getting a solo series, as announced by Marvel yesterday, but the one I’m really really excited about is Dazzler. I’ve wanted a Dazzler solo series for a long time now. Especially ever since Dazzler: X-Song by Magdelene Visaggio back in 2018, a Dazzler one-shot all about her music. I want a comic book about a touring superhero musician! I think it would be neat!

You’ve got Taylor Swift and the Eras Tour right there to use as inspiration. Now mix that with mutant and superhero angles, and you’ve got an ongoing where a mutant celebrity tours the world putting on big concerts and gets into different monkeyshines and shenanigans at each location. It’s a perfect set-up for an ongoing series. And you can explore the idea of mutant and celebrity without the satirical edge of X-Statix.

So I hope this comic is that idea. I probably shouldn’t put all of my expectations up on too high a pedestal, lest I disappoint myself. We don’t know the creative team or the plot yet, but I’ll share that info when it’s released. If all that info comes out today, I’ll just update this post.

Dazzler comes out in September!
