Welcome Strange Academy!
Strange Academy #1 Perfect for New Readers.
Strange Academy #1 launched March 4th and the Marvel comic universe all at once became a much stranger and more interesting place. Skottie Young and Humberto Ramos bring together the greatest magical powered teachers, under the guidance of the Sorcerer Supreme and hand them a freshman class filled with diverse, decidedly unique magical adepts who are brimming with both talent and personality.
Strange Academy #1 is the comic book we’ve been needing from Marvel. The story is an energetic and engaging read for both adult readers and younger fans, it’s the kind of story that is equal parts familiar and fresh. Yes, we’re once more at a school for gifted youngsters but we’re not wading through a morass of alternate timelines watching rehashed versions of decades-old plots that require a half a dozen extra issues of tangentially related titles and an understanding of events that occurred a hundred issues ago. All you need to enjoy the story in Strange Academy #1 exists between the covers of this issue. This is a series that is going to be entertaining for both longtime Marvel fans and new comics readers.
