COMICS: Asgard's Assasin ANGELA Receives A New Costume Design
Asgard's Assasin, Angela receives a costume redesign by the series co-artist Phil Jimenez. The new costume will embrace her newly discovered Asgardian heritage. Hit the jump to check it out.
Angela originally existed in Todd McFarlane’s Spawn universe but came into the Marvel Universe sporting her original 90’s design in 2013. Then after Jason Aaron's Original Sin Angela learned that she is the daughter of Odin and an Angel of the Tenth Realm. In light of this revelation her new design will embrace her Asgardian heritage.
Series editor Wil Moss also chimes in on the redesign explaining some of the the armors features.
"Angela’s new costume is an enchanted artifact whose appearance changes to fit the person wearing it. So this is basically a representation of Angela’s inner self. She may no longer be an Angel of the Tenth Realm, but the wings on this costume -- which are actually formed from the liquid gold metal of her Ichor blades -- indicate at least some part of her still considers herself one of them. Working from rough ideas from Kieron Gillen, Phil Jimenez wonderfully brought this new outfit to life, giving Angela a powerful and elegant new look."
