Claremont and Sienkiewicz Return and Haven't Lost a Step in New Mutants: War Children #1 [Preview]

Published Sat, 21 Sep 2019 13:30:36 -0500

Legendary creators Chris Claremont and Bill Sienkiewicz return to The New Mutants for New Mutants: War Children #1, along with colorist Chris Sotomayor and letterer Clayton Cowles, in stores next week from Marvel Comics. We've got a preview.

And if you're wondering whether Claremont and Sienkiewicz have still got the magic… well…

Of course they do. It makes one wonder why Marvel's blatantly ageist policies prevent them from giving more regular work to older creators beyond the occasional one-shot (like this), short stories in anthologies, or variant covers.

Maybe we can teach them the error of their ways by buying the crap out of this comic?

Seriously, they pay Claremont to be Marvel exclusive but use him just a few times a year. It's a crime against humanity. They're literally preventing us from seeing more work from him. What is Marvel's problem? Why don't they respect the people who created the universe they profit off of today?

New Mutants: War Children #1 is in stores on Wednesday.
