Sabotage at the Mantis House!

A mystery is afoot at the Mantis Household after a holiday party held by the Guardians of the Galaxy suspiciously came crashing down. Private Investigator Jessica Jones is called in by Mantis to investigate the mess of a crime scene only to find the punch spiked, the presents destroyed, and the power shutdown with the prime suspect amongst those that came to the party!

Control your Emotions! Mantis enters The Contest!

Master martial artist and expert empath, Mantis is a powerful combattant ready to take on The Contest with her emotional influence! After being taught to be a grand mistress of the martial arts by the Priests of Pama, Mantis became the Celestial Madonna, the Mother of a being destined to change the universe. In doing so, she was granted a new body from a race known as the Cotati. With this new body, Mantis gained complete control over her own spirit and emotions, which she uses to fight alongside the Avengers, Fantastic Four, and Guardians of the Galaxy to protect every corner of the universe she calls home.
