Description

New Champions Vol. 1: Change Is Coming is written by Steve Foxe, the Eisner and Ringo Award-nominated author of over 100 comics and children's books including X-Men '97, Spider-Woman, Dark X-Men, All Eight Eyes, and the Spider-Ham series from Scholastic.

MEET
Liberty (inspired by Captain America)
Moon Squire (inspired by Moon Knight)
Cadet Marvel (inspired by Captain Marvel)
Gold Tiger (inspired by Black Panther)
Fantasma (inspired by Ghost Rider)
Amaranth (protégé of the Scarlet Witch)
Hellrune (inspired by Thor)

What do these kids, whose lives were derailed by Hydra—one the Scarlet Witch's mysterious protégé, another a cursed roller derby jammer, along with a Wakandan runaway—have in common? Not much! But when Hellrune's mysterious powers activate to bring them together, they'll have to learn how to work as a team quickly, or face the Cult of Hela's wrath!

Young heroes are summoned from far and wide, but who among them has what it takes to become a New Champion? That's the name they'll adopt, but it doesn't belong to them—and the previous Champions will definitely have something to say about that!
