Marvel and Scholastic To Launch All-New Line Of Original Graphic Novels For Young Readers

>Marvel Entertainment and Scholastic, the global children’s publishing, education and media company, today announced a multi-year Original Graphic Novel program featuring some of Marvel’s most iconic Super Heroes including Miles Morales, Kamala Khan, Shuri and more! These new stories will launch as part of Scholastic’s Graphix Media line, building from the success of Marvel and Scholastic’s prose collaboration program that kicked off earlier this year.

>Next spring, Marvel and Scholastic’s new OGNs will make their debut with Miles Morales: Shock Waves, written by bestselling author Justin A. Reynolds (Opposite of Always and the forthcoming novel, Early Departures) with art by Eisner Award-nominated artist Pablo Leon (The Journey)! Following one of Marvel’s most popular characters, Miles Morales: Shock Waves will introduce readers to a riveting new story that will thrill both new and well-versed comics readers alike.

>In Miles Morales: Shock Waves, Miles Morales is a normal school kid who happens to juggle school at Brooklyn Visions Academy while swinging through the streets of Brooklyn as Spider-Man. After a disastrous earthquake strikes his mother’s birthplace of Puerto Rico, Miles springs into action to help set up a fundraiser for the devastated island. But when a new student's father goes missing, Miles begins to make connections between the disappearance and a giant corporation sponsoring Miles’ fundraiser. Who is behind the disappearance, and how does that relate to Spider-Man?

>Following Miles Morales: Shock Waves, Marvel and Scholastic will debut all-new adventures following Kamala Khan, written by rising graphic novel writer Nadia Shammas, and Shuri, written by New York Times bestselling author Roseanne A. Brown!

Marvel got tired of being embarrassed by their Bookscan stats.

Kamla sucks and Nadia Shammas sucks ass

The 43K copies of that Raven OGN that DC sold last year must have encouraged them.
Good, that is the market that is growing

>something anons will not read and doesn't impact their comics at all
>but because it has miles they'll bitch and complain about it for weeks

>>but because it has miles that one user who hates him a lot will bitch and complain about it for weeks

Fixed, it's definitely one guy who keeps trying to claim there's nothing good about Miles and keeps making excuses to hate him

So do you think they will try to phase out peter entirely if they get Miles popular enough?

While it’s awesome they are expanding the market a ton of those OGNs are hot garbage like the Super Sons ones whoever wrote it completely misses the point of the characters

The Raven one seemed more about the writers OC than Raven, but maybe she felt she needed to spend more time fleshing her out than Raven. I don't know.

That Super Sons book was the only "Zoom" book to actually make it on to the top 750 with 8300 copies (DC's 20th best performing book)

Well that user gets a lot of help when they start those threads up.

This is basically the Marvel version of the YA novels of DC.

This is just Marvel apeing the YA Novels of DC. But to avoid the controversy of making some racebending diverse cast of popular characters they are only using they already stablished PoC
heroes.

>But to avoid the controversy of making some racebending diverse cast of popular characters they are only using they already stablished PoC heroes.

two of the characters are derivative of pre-existing characters. Marvel used to never have sidekicks or focus on youth characters. Why not just make a youth focused Peter Parker, T'Challa, etc. books?

Soon they will run into the same problems plaguing DC after the JLU cartoon regarding John Stewart as Green Lantern. The general public will be confused.

They know the Marxist shitholes we call publuc schools will only allow kids to buy graphic novels if they have a diversity message.

>Soon they will run into the same problems plaguing DC after the JLU cartoon regarding John Stewart as Green Lantern.
Better than need to deal with all the autistic screech of people complaining about Bruce Wayne being chinese.

>Marxist
>public schools

user just say you were raised like a rich bitch, don't correlate words that you think you know what they mean. Cause that was just retarded.

Hopefully. We need more diverse comics.

Most public schools are Marxist indoctrination camps.

you guys have been saying this for 10 years easy

Raven sold 43k and was DC’s #2 book

>Marvel’s most iconic Super Heroes
>Miles Morales, Kamala Khan, Shuri
How do Marvel actually believe this?

Not him but I’m morally opposed to anything that gives bendis royalties

Ms.Marvel being a consistent Bookscan seller.

>doesn't impact their comics at all
Yeah, heroes only get killed in order to replace them by woke trash or dragged through the dirt to arouse hatred and then try again to replace them by woke trash, why you so mad user?

Only the first volume is selling, because schools, libraries and colleges are buying it. Nobody is buying any the other volumes.

He was literally created to replace dead Peter. They are still calling him Spider-man and ultimately there can only be one.

So I have an honest question bendis, do you just WANT people to hate miles
