Marvel Comics has unveiled new covers and character art for writer Jason Loo and artist Luigi Zagaria‘s upcoming four-issue Sentry series.
Loo and Zagaria’s Sentry miniseries launches early this coming December. In it, ordinary people the world over begin to manifest the Sentry’s powers following the death of Bob Reynolds. Issue #1 features a main cover by Ben Harvey. At this time, Marvel has also revealed variant covers by Salvador Larroca, Ema Lupacchino, Peach Momoko, and Skottie Young.
Additionally, the House of Ideas has offered a look at Zagaria’s designs for some of the new characters who will inherit the Sentry’s powers. These include individuals by the names of Farhad, Mallory, and Ryan.
What to expect from Marvel’s new Sentry series
An official synopsis for Sentry #1 reads as follows: “The Sentry is dead, but ordinary people all over the world are suddenly manifesting his powers and experiencing snippets of Bob Reynolds’ memories. But not everyone can be trusted with such responsibility, sparking a violent conflict to control the Sentry’s legacy. Will one of them survive long enough to emerge as the new Sentry? Or will their newfound power destroy them?”
“This entire series is a mystery where we follow Jessica Jones and Misty Knight as they figure out these catastrophic accidents caused by random strangers with the Sentry’s powers,” Loo explained. “You’re going to witness a bunch of origin stories, like Mallory Gibbs, a writer for Front Line news who lives with cerebral palsy. Farhad Anand is a mutant keeping a low profile as a DoorDish bicycle courier. And Ryan Topper, a teenage fanboy who gets to live his dream of becoming a super hero. And there are a few more further into the story. But the real question is … how are they all connected to Robert Reynolds?”
Sentry #1 goes on sale Wednesday, December 6 from Marvel Comics.
