Marvel has announced a new Taskmaster solo series by Jed MacKay and Alessandro Vitti launching in April. And it looks like Taskmaster was a naughty boy, as the solicit shouts that he has MURDERED MARIA HILL! Of course, it immediately walks that back, implying that perhaps Tasky is being set up. Either way, he's being hunted down by Marvel's greatest spies in this new book, so in our opinion, he probably should have done it even if he didn't. You might as well go down for a crime you did commit rather than one you didn't, right? Or maybe he'll prove his innocence.

Find out in April, and check out the solicit below.

TASKMASTER #1 WRITTEN BY JED MACKAY WITH ART BY ALESSANDRO VITTI AND COVER BY VALERIO GIANGIORDANO
TASKMASTER HAS MURDERED MARIA HILL!

Or at least that's what the whole world thinks. Now the greatest spies in the business are hunting him down and won't stop until Taskmaster is dead or clears his own name! Follow JED MACKAY (BLACK CAT) and ALESSANDRO VITTI (SECRET WARRIORS) on a globe–spanning adventure that will send ripples through every corner of the Marvel Universe's espionage community!
