The Power Pack appeared in their own Marvel comic in 1984.
The Marvel universe is excited as Power Pack returns triumphantly to the comic book scene! In celebration of the group’s 40th anniversary, co-creators Louise Simonson and June Brigman return. They will deliver a thrilling journey with their beloved super-powered siblings. Brace yourselves for the epic saga, “POWER PACK: INTO THE STORM,” to launch on January 24, 2024.
This upcoming five-issue series is a nostalgic nod to Simonson and Brigman’s original run.
In 1984 the Power Pack reigned as Marvel’s premier team of youthful superheroes. Alex, Julie, Jack, and Katie Power may have been mere children, but their extraordinary abilities and unwavering courage made them formidable defenders against formidable foes. They are back in action, facing a cosmic menace tied to one of their most formidable adversaries.
The stakes are higher than ever as the Power Pack confronts factions of the Snark, the Brood, and more in a mission that threatens the very stability of the cosmos. But they won’t face this peril alone. Some of Marvel’s most iconic heroes are joining the adventure, including Franklin Richards and the Uncanny X-Men. The Power siblings’ story is compelling as they navigate the challenges of being young heroes, keeping their powers hidden from their parents, and discovering the responsibilities that come with their extraordinary abilities. A hunch from Franklin Richards sets the stage for a galactic threat to test their mettle and resolve.
Louise Simonson expressed her delight in returning to the Power Pack universe.
She emphasizes the central question: should they reveal their powers to their parents? The story also delves into Franklin’s emerging abilities and explores the intriguing world of the Snark. Including the X-Man Storm, this adventure promises to be a rollercoaster of excitement and emotion. June Brigman, the artistic talent behind the series, is equally thrilled to revisit these beloved Marvel characters. Her artwork promises to capture the essence of Power Pack’s youthful energy and the cosmic threats they face.
So, mark your calendars for January because “POWER PACK: INTO THE STORM #1” is set to hit the stands, offering a classic adventure for the whole family. Get ready to embark on a nostalgic journey with the return of these kid superheroes and their epic battles against the forces of evil. Don’t miss out on this thrilling reunion of the Pack!
