Udon Studios Launches Darkstalkers: Morrigan In March 2022
Everyone seems to be doing their take on The Morrigan right now. The Wicked + The Divine, X-Factor and now Darkstalkers from Udon Entertainment.
The Morrígan is a figure from Irish mythology, mainly associated with war and fate, especially with foretelling doom, death or victory in battle. In this role she often appears as a crow, incites warriors to battle and can help bring about victory over their enemies. The Morrígan encourages warriors to do brave deeds, strikes fear into their enemies, and is portrayed washing the bloodstained clothes of those fated to die. She is most frequently seen as a goddess of battle and war and has also been seen as a manifestation of the earth- and sovereignty-goddess, chiefly representing the goddess's role as guardian of the territory and its people. The Morrígan is often described as a trio of individuals, all sisters, called "the three Morrígna". And in March, she gets her own spin-off book in Darkstalkers: Morrigan from Udon.
