Wyn From G.O.D.S. Almost Had A Kilt… Is He Scottish?
Valerio Schiti tells us regarding G.O.D.S. that "There was a moment, months ago, when you almost had a new Marvel character wearing a kilt."
G.O.D.S. #1 by Jonathan Hickman and Valerio Schiti was a shot in the arm for comic book stores this week along with Transformers #1 and Batman #138. Especially with its ten-dollar cover price, twice the price of the other two, at double or triple the length. With Wyn, Avatar of The Powers-That-Be, at the centre of the storyline, mapping out a new reality for the Marvel Universe. But what is his origin? Because Doctor Who, played by Scottish actor Ncuiti Gatwa, will see him sport a kilt in 2024, it seems. And at one point, so might Wyn, with these designs shared on TwitterX by Valerio Schiti.
Valerio Schiti posted, "I read A LOT of great reviews for G.O.D.S. #01 (which is OUT NOW, btw). To thank you all, here's a "special content", something that's NOT in the book. There was a moment, months ago, when you almost had a new Marvel character wearing a kilt. But "A" won." Asked if he was Scottish, Schiti replied, "I can't talk about Wyn's past, sorry."
Maybe not, but from the chosen design, he does seem to have a tartan though. And his full name is "Ser Reddwyn, Lord of the Highlands, Root of the World Tree, and Salt of the Earth." "Ser" is the gender-neural honorific invented for A Game Of Thrones, but "Lord Of The Highlands". Well, that's very Scottish; the only Scottish-er it could have been for this highlander, was if it were spelt "Laird". As for how long Schiti will be with G.O.D.S., he said "I'll do the first 8 books for sure. Some of them will have a few extra pages."
