Marvel Comics Foreshadows the Future of Star and Black Cat

Published Tue, 08 Sep 2020 08:00:41 -0500

Marvel Comics solicited a couple of comic books for May 2020 with what they called "Foreshadowing" variant covers. Gioving a tease of what was to come. One was Star #5, the other was Valkyrie #11. Now, the latter was cancelled before it could be published. But Star #5 is finally published this week. And this is the Foreshadow variant cover in question, drawn by Kris Anka.

Marvel Comics Foreshadows the Future of Star and Black Cat.

Which appears to show Felicia Hardy, the Black Cat, having stolen a certain gem – sorry, I mean, stone – with a certain Star trapped inside it. We know that Felica Hardy is to return, possibly in December, for a King In Black storyline. Might cosmic powered beings trapped against their will play out in any way in a story about Knull? Or is this for something completely different?

And yes, Valkyrie: Jane Foster was cancelled with #10 so we never got to see the planned Foreshadow variant cover for Valkyrie: Jane Foster #11. But here's a little foreshadowing of our own. Thor: Love And Thunder will be released at some point. And odds are that Marvel will want some new Jane Foster content to be running alongside it. Might we see a return of the title or the character in a prominent role at some point soon? Keep watching the solicitations.
