“The True Believers have spoken, and when they do, the teams at Marvel Games and Marvel Publishing assemble and leap to answer them!” says Marvel Games VP & Creative Director Bill Rosemann. “This time it began with the introduction of the all-new characters K-Pop Super Hero Luna Snow and the delightful duo of Crescent & Io, plus the modern update of secret agent White Fox’s field uniform, in the mobile game Marvel Future Fight. Reacting to player response, all three characters then made their Marvel comic book debut in the sold-out WAR OF THE REALMS: NEW AGENTS OF ATLAS mini-series and are now leaping into the team’s upcoming new series!
