COMICS: Marvel's Superman, The SENTRY, Will Return As Part Of The Line's FRESH START
Marvel's Fresh Start initiative has revealed a number of changes (some welcome, others surprising) but did anyone foresee The Sentry making a return? Jeff Lemire and Kim Jacinto lead the new title.
Former standout DC Comics-turned-Marvel writer Jeff Lemire (Sweet Tooth, Animal Man, Old Man Logan ongoing) and artist Kim Jacinto are launching a new Sentry comic for Marvel as part of the company's "Fresh Start" initiative.
"The Sentry is a fascinating character. I absolutely loved the original Sentry series by Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee when it first came out, so I jumped at the chance to write the character," said Lemire in an interview with CB. He would also go on to confirm that Sentry's dark alter-ego the Void would also be playing a prominent role. However, he stressed that his new series would not simply be retelling the same origin story from Jenkins and Lee.
The new ongoing Sentry book will debut in June. Expect more details to be revealed in the months leading up to its release.
